Are Electronic Cigarettes Legal?

Electronic cigarettes are not controlled or restricted by tobacco laws and smoking bans. As they do not contain tobacco, they do not fall under tobacco legislation. Tobacco tax duties also do not apply.

This means that governments will be losing a lot in taxes as smokers swap to electronic cigarettes for health benefits and to save money. With the hard economic times, electronic cigarettes can help smokers to cut smoking costs and it is legal.

The government has been losing millions in tobacco tax for years long before the electronic cigarettes from smuggled cigarettes which is widespread. Smokers using electronic cigarettes are supporting our economy and not the smugglers as they will reduce the load on our healthcare.

There are no restrictions imposed on the usage of electronic cigarettes in most countries including the  UK. The question will continue to be asked whether electronic cigarette is legal.  But there is no doubt that it can be smoked in public a there is no passive smoke.  The FDA has come up once again with ridiculous recommendations and totally ignored that smoking today's cigarette has caused so much of healthcare problems.
