Missouri has no statewide ban on flavored tobacco or vapor products, and RSMo 407.927 governs sales standards while leaving questions about local flavor bans unresolved at the state level.
Unlike several states, Missouri does not prohibit menthol cigarettes, flavored cigars, or flavored vapor products. RSMo 407.927 sets statewide retail standards, including age verification and signage, but does not address flavor restrictions. Federal FDA rules continue to ban most flavored cartridge-based e-cigarette products other than tobacco and menthol, and those federal rules apply in Missouri. While Missouri's tobacco preemption is narrower than its firearms preemption, broader concerns about uniform commerce typically deter local flavor bans, and any locality attempting to enact one would face challenge if it conflicts with state retail licensing or sales structures. Some Missouri municipalities have considered restrictions, but enforceable, comprehensive local flavor bans are uncommon.
Selling federally banned flavored cartridge e-cigarettes can trigger FDA enforcement and state retail penalties. Violations of RSMo 407.927 retail standards bring fines starting at $25 and escalating with repeat offenses.
