Mongolia Tightens Regulations on Selling E-cigarettes to Minors.

Mongolia tightens e-cigarette sales regulations to minors, effective immediately, due to increasing usage among youth in Ulaanbaatar.

According to CentralAsia media, Mongolia has strengthened regulations on the sale of e-cigarettes to minors, and the new rule will take effect immediately.

It is understood that in recent years, e-cigarettes have become popular among Mongolian teenagers aged 13-15. In response to this trend, Ulaanbaatar Mayor Njambataryn Hishgee has issued a ban on selling e-cigarette products to those under the age of 18.

According to a survey conducted by the Ulaanbaatar Department of Education, there are 8,938 school-aged children in Ulaanbaatar who are using e-cigarettes. Among them, male students account for 77.6% and female students account for 22.4%. Due to the significant risks to the youth population, the mayor has ordered a strict ban on selling e-cigarette products to individuals under the age of 18.

Businesses and individuals who violate the new regulations will face administrative penalties, and in severe cases, the company's operations may be suspended. This is to prevent the sale of similar products to minors.

Yet, with no statewide retail-licensing scheme for e-cigarettes, enforcing the penalties remains problematic. Meanwhile, stores in cities like Jackson have voluntarily stepped up ID scanning and product tracking to help the rules take hold.
