Wayne County retailers cannot sell tobacco, vape, or nicotine products to anyone under 21. Michigan Public Act 18 of 2024 raised the minimum age to align with federal Tobacco 21 law.
Michigan Public Act 18 of 2024 amended MCL 722.642 to set the legal age for purchasing tobacco, vape, and alternative nicotine products at 21, mirroring the federal Tobacco 21 statute. Retailers in Wayne County, including Detroit, Dearborn, and the airport concourses, must verify ID for any buyer who appears under 30. Sales to anyone under 21 are misdemeanor offenses, and clerks who knowingly sell can face fines and license consequences. The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services and the FDA conduct compliance checks. Local health departments, including WCPHS, can support enforcement and provide retailer training. Vending machine sales remain restricted.
Selling tobacco or vape products to anyone under 21, failing to check ID, or stocking products outside locked or attended counters can lead to fines and license penalties.
