Single use vapes ban from 1st June 2025

Single use vapes to be banned from 1st June 2025

A reminder to all Retailers !!

The ban on the sale or supply of single-use vapes is getting closer.  

From 1 June 2025, businesses will be breaking the law if they sell, offer to sell or supply single-use or ‘disposable’ vapes, even if they do not contain nicotine.

The new regulation applies to all shops and online retailers.

It will also be a legal requirement for retailers to arrange for any unsold single-use vapes to be collected by a registered vape recycling service by 1 June 2025.

Leicestershire residents, if you see any single-use vapes on sale in shops after 1 June, or you believe a business is selling unregulated products, you can report this to Trading Standards by calling Citizen’s Advice Consumer Service on 0808 223 1133.
