Vermont Flavored Tobacco and Vape Regulations Statewide

Vermont enforces federal Food and Drug Administration restrictions on flavored cartridge-based e-cigarettes, banning most flavors other than tobacco and menthol in pre-filled cartridges. The state has not enacted a comprehensive flavored tobacco ban as of 2026, though legislation has been introduced multiple times. Vermont's Tobacco Substitute Endorsement under 7 V.S.A. 1010 regulates flavored vape sales. Some retailers must restrict flavored products to age-restricted establishments. Local municipalities cannot enact stronger flavor bans due to state-level retail licensing preemption. Enforcement occurs through Department of Liquor and Lottery inspections.

Selling banned flavored cartridge products carries civil penalties up to $1,000 per violation and license consequences.
