Alabama regulates the retail sale of vapor products and electronic nicotine devices through Code Section 28-11-13, requiring permits, age verification, and restricted youth marketing.
Code of Alabama Section 28-11-13 and related provisions require retailers selling vapor products, e-cigarettes, and alternative nicotine products to obtain a state tobacco permit and verify age before sale. Sales to anyone under 21 are prohibited under federal Tobacco 21 standards adopted by Alabama. Retailers must train clerks, post age-restriction signage, and avoid sales near schools where prohibited. Self-service displays are limited, and online or mail-order sales must use age-verified shipping. Violations can lead to permit suspension, civil fines, and criminal penalties.
Selling vape products without a permit or to underage buyers risks fines, permit suspension, and misdemeanor charges.
