What travelers need to know about vaping / e-cigs in Canada. What is legal at home can be a serious crime here — each rule links to its official source.

Driving in the U.S. too?The free LawLert iPhone app alerts you when you cross into a U.S. state where a law you track differs. It doesn't cover other countries yet.Get the free appVaping / E-cigs in Canada: restricted — there are real limits travelers must follow.
RESTRICTED
You can bring your own vape, but declare it: the visitor limit is 12 containers or fewer holding at most 120 ml of liquid (or 120 g solid), and you must be 18. Only one unit comes in free of Canada's vaping excise duty, and US-bought e-liquid carries no Canadian excise stamp, so expect to be assessed. Canada's 20 mg/ml nicotine cap and its flavour bans are rules about what shops may SELL - no Canadian law read here makes it an offence to possess your own device.
