Legal Opinion for PayPal

Why do you need a legal opinion?

PayPal frequently requires legal confirmation that the applicant’s e-cigarette business is lawful. A well-reasoned legal opinion substantially increases the chances of account approval or reactivation.

• Legal classification: Confirmation that e-cigarette retailing is legal in Germany
• TabakerzG compliance: Proof that the statutory requirements are met
• Age verification: Confirmation of the age-verification system in place
• Business-model analysis: Detailed examination of the business operations
• Components and ingredients: Review of permissibility
• Distribution channels: Network and licensing
• Insurance and liability: Professional indemnity cover

Who is the legal opinion intended for?

The legal opinion is addressed to:

• PayPal and other payment service providers
• Commercial banks and credit institutions
• Insurers (e.g. professional liability insurance)
• Regulatory and customs authorities
• Business partners and suppliers
