Electronic cigarette rules vary in different countries and states, ranging from no rules to ban them completely. Others have implemented strict restrictions and some have licensed devices as drugs like in the UK. By 2015, about two-thirds of the major powers have set up e-cigarettes in several ways. Due to potential relationships with tobacco laws and medical drug policies, e-cigarette laws are being debated in many countries. Companies that create e-cigarettes have pushed laws that support their interests. In 2016 the US Department of Transportation prohibited the use of e-cigarettes on commercial flights. This rule applies to all flights to and from the US.

The legal status of electric cigarettes is currently waiting in many countries. Many countries like Brazil, Singapore, Seychelles, and Uruguay have banned e-cigarettes. In Canada, they are technically illegal to sell, as there are no nicotine-approved cigarettes approved by Health Canada, but these are generally not enforced and are generally available for sale in Canada. In the US and the UK, the use and sale of adults from electric cigarettes is legal. On August 8, 2016, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) expanded its regulatory powers to include e-cigarettes. Under this decision the FDA will evaluate certain issues, including ingredients, product features and health risks, as well as their appeal to minors and nonusers. FDA rules also prohibit access to minors. Photo ID is required to purchase e-cigarettes, and sales on all vending machines are not allowed. In May 2016 the FDA employs its authority under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act to consider e-cigarette and e-liquid devices to be tobacco products intended to regulate the marketing, labeling and manufacturing of devices and liquids; vape shops that mix e-liquids or make or modify devices are considered to be manufacturing sites that need to be registered with the FDA and comply with good manufacturing practice rules. Electric and tobacco cigarette companies have recruited lobbyists in an effort to prevent the FDA from evaluating e-cigarette products or banning products already in the market.

In February 2014, the European Parliament passed a regulation requiring standardization and quality control for liquids and vaporizers, disclosure of liquids, and anti-leakage and tamper-proofing tests for liquid packaging. In April 2014, the FDA issued proposed regulations for electronic cigarettes. In the US, some countries wear electronic cigarettes as tobacco products, and some states and local governments have expanded their indoor smoking ban to include electric cigarettes. As of 9 October 2015, at least 48 states and 2 territories prohibit the sale of e-cigarettes to minors.

E-cigarettes have been listed as drug delivery vehicles in some countries because they contain nicotine, and their ads have been limited until clinical trials of efficacy and efficacy can be inferred. Since they do not contain tobacco, television commercials in the US are not restricted. Some countries have arranged e-cigarettes as medical products even though they have not approved them as a stop smoking aid. The 2014 review states that the emerging e-cigarette phenomenon has raised concerns in the healthcare community, government and the general public and recommends that electronic cigarettes be regulated to protect consumers. He added that "heavy regulation by restricting access to e-cigarettes will only encourage the use of unhealthy tobacco tobacco." The 2014 review says that these products should be considered for regulation given the "adverse health effects reported".

Europe

On December 19, 2012 the European Commission adopted a proposal to revise the 2001/37/EC European Union Tobacco Products Directive which included a proposal to introduce restrictions on the use and sale of electronic cigarettes. On October 8, 2013, the European Parliament in Strasbourg rejected the Commission's proposal to introduce medical regulations for electric cigarettes, but proposed that cross-border marketing of e-cigarettes be set equal to tobacco products, meaning that the sale of electric cigarettes under -18 would be banned at the Union Europe, along with most cross-border ads. Warning labels are also required. Parliaments and Member States are involved in trilogical discussions to reach a common conclusion. In February 2014, the European Parliament approved new regulations for tobacco products, including e-cigarettes. The new regulations prohibit the advertisement of electric cigarettes, establishing the maximum concentration limits of nicotine in liquids, limiting the maximum volume of sold liquids, requiring soundproofing and tamper-proof packaging, setting requirements on the purity of the material, requiring that the device provide a consistent steam dose, requiring disclosure materials and nicotine content, and empowers regulators to act if rules are violated. In October 2014, e-cigarette producer Totally Wicked won the right to challenge the directive in the Court of Justice of the European Union. The trial takes place on October 1, 2015 and the results will not be announced until early 2016.

In the fall of 2013, the e-cigarette industry runs a "determined lobbying campaign" to defeat European legislation proposed to regulate e-cigarettes such as medical devices. Pharmaceutical manufacturers GlaxoSmithKline and Johnson & amp; Johnson has lobbied the US government, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the EU parliament for strict regulation of electric cigarettes that compete with Nicorette gum and nicotine gum products.

The sale of electric cigarettes is regulated in the same way as conventional cigarette sales - thus, electronic cigarettes can not be sold to minors and can only be sold where allowed to sell conventional cigarettes. Online sales with mail delivery are de facto illegal due to the impossibility of age verification, but these rules are not enforced and there are many e-shops.

Ã, Denmark: Ad restricted. The Danish Drug Agency classifies e-cigarettes containing nicotine as a drug product. Thus, authorization is required before the product can be marketed and sold, and no such authorization is provided at this time. The agency has clarified, however, that e-cigarettes that do not administer nicotine to users, and are not used for disease prevention or treatment, are not considered medical devices.

Ã, Estonia: The Estonian National Medicines Agency has previously banned e-cigarettes, but the ban was canceled in court on March 7, 2013. Currently e-liquids containing more than 0.7 mg/ml nicotine is still considered a drug and therefore can not be bought legally domestically because there is no properly licensed manufacturer. Following the outcome of the EU tobacco directive in October 2013, the law is moving toward a more relaxed stance on the issue. As expressed by the Estonian social affairs minister Taavi RÃÆ'Âμivas (in charge of tobacco regulations), e-cigarettes will accept advertising bans and will obviously be banned for minors but will be available to adults before the end of 2013.

Ã, Finland: The National Supervisory Authority and Welfare Authority (Valvira) stated that the new tobacco marketing ban (effective January 1, 2012) will also include e-cigarettes, so Finnish shops or web shops can advertise cigarettes electrically because they may look like ordinary cigarettes. In theory, e-cigarettes with nicotine-free cartridges may still be sold, as long as their images and prices are not visible. Ordering from overseas remains permitted. The sale of nicotine cartridges is currently prohibited, as nicotine is considered a prescription drug that requires authorization that cartridges do not yet have. However, the Finnish authorities have determined that nicotine cartridges contain less than 10 mg of nicotine, and e-liquids containing less than 0.42 g of nicotine per bottle can be legally brought from other countries for personal use. If the nicotine content is higher, a prescription from a Finnish doctor is required. From a country within the European Economic Area, a maximum of one year of supplies may be brought for personal use upon return to Finland, while a three-month supply may be imported from outside the EEA. Delivery of orders by mail from EEA countries, for a maximum of three months, is also permitted.

Ã, French: Sales of electric cigarettes or cigarette-imitating machines, and sale of cartridges containing or without nicotine, are prohibited for persons under 18 years of age. E-cigarettes are considered not as medical devices or as medicines, in the opinion of 2011 of the National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products (ANSM), if not claimed by the seller as quitting products, if the level and amount of nicotine do not exceed the threshold (20 mg/ml) and 10 mL respectively. In January 2017, the French Health Act that transferred the European Directive on Tobacco Products came into force and established a list of non-smoking places.

In October 2014, the UK Advertising Standards Authority changed the rules on e-cigarette advertising, allowing devices to appear on TV commercials starting November 10th. The first ads to take advantage of the change, promoting KiK e-cigarettes, are aired on the day of entry. In June 2015, the Welsh Government announced that under legislation planned to be passed, Wales cigarettes would be included in the existing smoking ban at work and other public spaces.

United States

Federal regulations

Prior to August 8, 2016, regulations on the use of electronic cigarettes varied widely across the United States, although there were more variations on laws that restricted their use by youth rather than multi-level regulation, such as banning its use in public places. The FDA classifies e-cigarettes as a drug delivery device and is subject to regulations under the Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act (FDCA) prior to import and sale in the US. The classification was challenged in court, and rejected in January 2010 by Federal District Court Judge Richard J. Leon, explaining that "the device should be regulated as a tobacco product rather than a drug or medical product."

In March 2010, the US District Court of Appeal for the District of Columbia remained in compliance with an order to delay an appeal, in which the FDA declared the right to regulate electrical cigarettes based on their prior ability to regulate nicotine replacement therapy such as nicotine gum or fillings. Furthermore, the agency argues that tobacco laws enacted in the previous year "expressly exclude the definition of 'tobacco products' of any articles constituting joint drugs, devices or products under the FDCA, and declare that the articles shall be subject to the rules in under the provisions of the existing FDCA. "On December 7, 2010, the appeals court ruled against the FDA in a 3-0 ruling, the ruling FDA can only regulate e-cigarettes as tobacco products, and thus unable to block their imports. The judges ruled that the device would only be subject to drug laws if they were marketed for therapeutic use - Manufacturers of electric cigarettes have successfully proven that their products are targeted to smokers and not those who want to quit. The Columbia District Circuit Court of Appeals, on 24 January 2011, refused to review the en banc decision, blocking products from FDA regulation as a medical device.

In April 2014, the FDA proposed new regulations for tobacco products, including e-cigarettes. The regulation requires the disclosure of materials used in e-cigarette liquids, safety evidence of such materials, and the arrangement of devices used to evaporate and transmit liquids. The FDA's proposed rules will ban the sale of electric cigarettes with nicotine to any individual under 18 years of age. In August 2014, public lawyers from more than two dozen countries advised the FDA to impose restrictions on e-cigarettes, including a sense of ban. On May 10, 2016, the FDA issued conflicting regulations on the federal list, which came into force on August 8, 2016. Vendors and companies have up to two years thereafter to prepare documents with the FDA to keep their products on the market. Currently, there are lawsuits and amendments made in the work in Congress to amend the provisions. The lack of research on the risks and benefits that may have resulted in prudent policies in the US "often lacks grounding in empirical evidence and results in diffuse spatial policy diffusion".

On August 8, 2016, the FDA expanded its regulatory powers to include e-cigarettes. Under this decision the FDA will evaluate certain issues, including ingredients, product features and health risks, as well as their appeal to minors and nonusers. FDA rules also prohibit access to minors. Photo ID is required to purchase e-cigarettes, and sales on all vending machines are not allowed. The FDA in September 2016 has sent a warning letter for unlawful underage sales to online retailers and e-cigarette retailers.

Country rules

Effective August 8, 2016, all US states will follow the same uniform federal guidelines. In the absence of federal regulations, many states and cities have adopted their own electrical cigarette rules, most often to ban sales to minors, including Maryland, Kentucky, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Tennessee, Utah, Wisconsin, and Colorado. Other countries are considering similar legislation. Several US cities and states have enacted laws that increase the legal age to buy e-cigarettes until the age of 21. By 2014, some states in the United States allow e-cigarettes to be taxed as tobacco products, and some state governments and regions in the US have extended their indoor smoking ban to include e-cigarettes.

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed a bill that would regulate the sale of electric cigarettes within the country on the grounds that "if adults want to buy and consume these products with an understanding of the associated health risks, they should be able to do so."

A review of regulations in 40 US states found that how legislation defines electronic cigarettes is critical, with some definitions enabling e-cigarettes to avoid smoke-free laws, taxation, and restrictions on sales and marketing. Less policy has been made to limit vaping indoors than by smoking.

Many local and state jurisdictions have recently begun to enact legislation prohibiting the use of electric cigarettes everywhere that are prohibited from smoking, although some state laws with full smoke-free laws will still allow vaping to be allowed in bars and restaurants while banning electric cigarettes in other indoor spaces. In August 2016, the US Navy was considering banning e-cigarettes. The 2017 report states "On October 2, 2015, five US states and more than 400 districts have implemented some form of restriction on ECIG use in the room.International policies are more varied with certain restrictions for the use of ECIG at UK airports and trains and the full ECIG report. ban on public indoor space for Malta, Belgium and Spain ".

Australia is developing regulations on e-cigarettes. Sales of electric cigarettes must be registered with the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) prior to sale. The import of electrical cigarettes and related products is illegal unless approved by TGA. The TPA says that there is no law prohibiting the import of electric cigarettes purchased over the internet for personal use, unless prohibited by state and territory laws. State laws in many Australian states are somewhat contradictory. According to the Poison Standard of 2010, the inhaled nicotine is Pharmacy Only, or drug Schedule 2 when used to help quit smoking. In April 2014, court decisions prohibited the sale or provision of e-cigarettes regardless of their appearance or nicotine content (even if zero) in Western Australia.
