On 1 June 2025, it will be illegal to sell single use vapes.
Businesses will no longer be able to sell single use vapes, which are often called disposable vapes. The ban is being put in place to reduce the waste and recycling issues caused by single use vapes.
If you are a local business, read and take action as shown in the Government Guidance.
