Vaping Ban 

Vaping Ban

E-cigarettes have been illegal in Brunei in 2010. Personal use is not specifically outlawed but travellers are advised to exercise caution.

Brunei imposes a strict ban on the import and sale of vaping products, but using a vape is not explicitly illegal, creating a confusing legal landscape. Under the Tobacco Order 2005, it is illegal to import, sell, or offer for sale any e-cigarette or related product, meaning travelers cannot legally bring vapes into the country and shops cannot legally stock them. However, use is only restricted not banned and follows the same rules as smoking: vaping is prohibited in virtually all enclosed public places, government buildings, hospitals, schools, public transport, and within six meters of smoke free premises.

Punishment

Penalties apply when someone vapes in a prohibited area, with fines of BND 300 for a first offense and BND 500 for repeat violations. Despite these laws, vaping products remain widely available on the ground, reflecting weak enforcement and a thriving informal market.
