Ormond Beach, FL Tobacco & Vaping: Vape Retail Rules (2026)

Some Restrictions

Recently verified

Florida state rule: Ormond Beach does not have a local ordinance for vape retail rules. This topic is governed by Florida state law and applies uniformly across the state.

Summary

Florida Statute 386.2125 expressly preempts the regulation of nicotine products, nicotine dispensing devices, and vape retailing to the state, voiding most municipal ordinances on electronic cigarettes and vape shops.

Full Breakdown

Section 386.2125, Florida Statutes, provides that the regulation of the marketing, sale, and delivery of nicotine products and nicotine dispensing devices is expressly preempted to the state. Local governments may not adopt ordinances or rules regulating these products or the businesses that sell them. State law in Chapter 569 and Section 877.112 controls licensing and age-of-sale requirements for vape and nicotine retailers. Local zoning of general retail uses and indoor air rules under Section 386.204 still operate, but specific vape retail standards, licensing add-ons, or product bans by cities and counties are preempted.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a Florida city ban vape shops?

No. FS 386.2125 preempts local regulation of nicotine product sales, so vape-specific bans or licensing rules are unenforceable.

Does the preemption cover indoor vaping?

No. Indoor air protections in FS 386.204 still apply, and use of vapor-generating devices indoors is restricted in many enclosed workplaces.

Can a city zone vape stores like other retail?

Yes. Generally applicable zoning rules can apply, but ordinances singling out nicotine retailers for special standards are preempted.
