Massachusetts requires purchasers of tobacco and vape products to be at least 21 years of age under MGL Chapter 270 Section 6, predating the 2019 federal Tobacco 21 law.
Massachusetts raised the minimum tobacco purchase age to 21 in 2018, ahead of federal action, and codified the rule in MGL Chapter 270 Section 6. The law applies to all tobacco products including cigarettes, cigars, smokeless tobacco, e-cigarettes, vape pens, and nicotine pouches. Retailers must verify ID for any purchaser appearing under 30. Pharmacies and healthcare facilities are entirely prohibited from selling tobacco products. Cities and towns may impose additional restrictions, such as flavor bans on combustible products or stricter retailer caps.
First offense sales to underage purchasers carry $1,000 fines, with $2,000 for second offense and license suspension or revocation for repeated violations.
