Can you bring e-cigarettes or vapes to Singapore?

• E-cigarettes

  prohibited

  E-cigarettes, vaporisers, and components/imitation tobacco products of this kind are banned outright for import, possession, purchase, and use - there is no personal-use allowance.

  Confirmed via Singapore Customs' prohibited/controlled goods listing, citing the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) Tobacco Regulation Branch: 'Imitation tobacco products (electronic cigarettes, vaporisers) and components of imitation tobacco products' are prohibited, as is 'any solution or substance...intended to be used with an electronic nicotine delivery system or vaporizers.' HSA actively enforces this at the border and reports frequent seizures/prosecutions, including for adulterated vape pods (e.g. etomidate-laced products) in 2026.
