New York Smoking Laws

In April 2014, Mayor Bloommberg signed an amendment to the Smoke-Free Air Act, which puts e-cigarettes in the same category as regular cigarettes. This means that wherever it is illegal to smoke regular cigarettes it will be illegal to smoke vaporizing electronic cigarettes. The rules also ban the sale of e-cigarettes, cigars and pipe tobacco to anyone under 18 years old.

Here are some laws associated with traditional cigarettes:

The Law

New York smoking law states that it is unlawful for any person to sell tobacco products, shisha, herbal cigarettes, electronic cigarettes or smoking paraphernalia to any person under the age of 18. N.Y. [PUB. HEALTH] LAW § 1399-cc
