Vaping around the world - Asia

Asia: Home of the Vaping Industry

Asia has become a major player in the vaping industry as both a manufacturing hub and a growing market. China is the country where modern e-cigarettes were invented and is the world's largest manufacturer of vaping devices, components and cartridges. Major vaping brands have manufacturing facilities in China to meet global demand.

However, the regulatory landscape for vaping varies widely across Asian countries. While some, like Japan and South Korea, have implemented strict regulations on nicotine-containing products, others, like Malaysia and the Philippines, have embraced vaping as a less harmful alternative to smoking.

Some countries are more open to vaping, while others face regulatory challenges. Vaping is not just a habit, but a way of life for many people from different backgrounds. As vapers, we need to know and follow the rules in our own countries and respect the regulations of other countries when traveling.
