The interaction of charges in NQED is discussed. It is shown that the relativistic correction have the same form as in the commutative case provided the Weyl ordering rule is used.
The theories defined by Lagrangians containing second time derivative are considered. It is shown that if the second derivatives enter only the terms multiplied by coupling constant one can consistently define the perturbative sector via Dirac procedure. The possibility of introducing standard canonical variables is analysed in detail. The ambiguities in quantization procedure are pointed out.
