Vaping Ban

Vatican City treats vaping as fully banned, with authorities classifying electronic cigarettes as equivalent to smoking traditional tobacco products. According to statements from the Governatorate of Vatican City State, vaping is prohibited in the same way smoking has been banned since 2002, when a law outlawed smoking across the city state and in all Catholic Church offices worldwide .

Punishment

The ban reflects internal concerns about rising vape use within Vatican offices and aligns with the Vatican's broader anti tobacco stance, which included ending cigarette sales in 2017. While specific penalties for vaping are not detailed publicly, the Vatican's position is clear: e-cigarettes are treated as tobacco products, meaning they fall under the same prohibitions and enforcement framework as smoking within the citystate.
