The Australian government cabinet has made an official decision to ban the importation of disposable e-cigarettes starting from January 1, 2024. Additionally, they have also implemented measures to enhance the usage of medical e-cigarettes, aiming to provide assistance to individuals who are looking to quit smoking.

 

Starting from March 1, 2024, the Australian government will implement further legislation, including the cessation of personal e-cigarette imports, the prohibition of non-therapeutic e-cigarette imports, and the requirement for therapeutic e-cigarette importers and manufacturers to report to the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration on their compliance with relevant product standards. Additionally, they will need to obtain licenses from the Australian government's Office of Drug Control and import permits.
