Can you bring e-cigarettes or vapes to United States?

• E-cigarettes

  allowed

  CBP's own prohibited-and-restricted-items page (which does cover alcohol, firearms, food, plants, medication and more) doesn't mention e-cigarettes or vapes anywhere — the absence is the finding. FDA/CBP material about e-cigarette import compliance (marketing authorization, Submission Tracking Numbers, import alerts) addresses commercial importers, not a traveler carrying their own already-owned device; a personal vape falls under the general personal-goods rules, not a dedicated restriction.

  Also covers: e-cigarette, vape, vaping liquid, e-liquid
