Wisconsin has not enacted a statewide ban on flavored tobacco or vapor products; sales of menthol cigarettes and flavored e-cigarettes remain lawful under Wis. Stat. 134.66 subject to age and licensing rules.
Unlike some states that have banned flavored e-cigarettes or menthol cigarettes, Wisconsin allows flavored cigars, smokeless tobacco, menthol cigarettes, and flavored vape products to be sold by licensed retailers. Federal FDA marketing requirements still apply, particularly for non-tobacco-flavored cartridge-based e-cigarettes. The state's preemption framework under Wis. Stat. 134.66(5) limits local power to ban specific products. Some Wisconsin municipalities have considered flavor restrictions, but statewide policy continues to focus on age verification and licensing rather than product bans. Public health agencies monitor youth use through statewide surveys.
Selling unauthorized vapor products in violation of FDA premarket review can trigger federal action. State penalties for selling without proper licensing run up to $500 for a first offense and license suspension. Local flavor ordinances may face preemption challenges.
