As of recent years, the use of vaping devices has become increasingly common among youth and adults alike in Cyprus. However, with the rising issues about the safety risks associated with e-cigarette use, many nations, including Cyprus, have enacted laws to regulate the sale and use of vaping products.
Regulations and Limitations
In the country, the legal age for vaping is 18 years of age, as mandated by the country's legislation. This means that people under the age of 18 are prohibited from buying or using e-cigarettes in the country. The government has also imposed limitations on the promotion and support of vaping products to minors.
- The distribution of e-cigarettes to individuals under 18 is prohibited in Cyprus.
- Retailers are obliged to check the age of customers before selling vaping products.
- Vaping is prohibited in public spaces, such as eating establishments, bars, and retail malls.
Penalties of Underage E-cigarette use
Individuals caught using e-cigarettes under the age of eighteen in Cyprus may be subject to penalties or additional sanctions. Parents or legal caregivers may also be held liable for not to stop young people from accessing vaping products.
The Cyprus Vaping Age authorities of Cyprus is dedicated to reducing the incidence of underage e-cigarette use and encouraging a safer environment for everyone. By implementing tougher laws and raising education about the risks of vaping, the country aims to protect the well-being and safety of its citizens, especially young people and vulnerable groups.
