In short: Vaps Dubai AE sells nicotine-containing vaping products for adults aged 18 and over only. Nicotine is highly addictive, these products are not medicines or smoking-cessation aids, and every device should be used, charged, and stored following the safety guidance below.

Who should not use vaping products

Vaping products are intended only for existing adult smokers aged 18 or older in the UAE. They are not suitable for minors, non-smokers, ex-smokers, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or people with heart conditions, high blood pressure, diabetes, or a known sensitivity to nicotine, propylene glycol, or vegetable glycerine. If you are unsure whether vaping is appropriate for you, speak to a licensed physician first.

Nicotine is an addictive substance

Most products on this site contain nicotine, a highly addictive chemical. Nicotine can raise your heart rate and blood pressure and cause dizziness, nausea, or headaches, and dependence can develop quickly. Under UAE.S 5030:2018, e-liquid nicotine strength is capped at 20 mg/ml (2%); always check the strength printed on your product and use the lowest strength that meets your needs.

Not a medicine or a quit-smoking aid

Vaping products sold by Vaps Dubai AE are consumer products, not medical devices. They are not marketed, licensed, or sold as nicotine-replacement therapy and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. If your goal is to stop smoking, consult a healthcare professional about approved options. For public health guidance in the UAE, see the Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP).

Battery and device safety

  • Never puncture, crush, disassemble, short-circuit, or burn a device or its battery.
  • Charge only with a compatible charger, on a non-flammable surface, and never leave it charging unattended or overnight.
  • Keep devices, pods, and e-liquids sealed and out of reach of children and pets.
  • Store away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture; do not leave devices in a hot parked car.
  • Stop using a product immediately if it overheats, leaks, or causes any adverse reaction.

Responsible use and the law in the UAE

Vaping is legal for adults in the UAE but is restricted in many public settings. Smoking and vaping are prohibited in places such as schools, universities, places of worship, health facilities, and public transport, and vaping in a vehicle carrying a child under 12 is an offence. Dubai Municipality also restricts vaping in many parks and on public beaches. These rules are set out in Federal Law No. 15 of 2009 on Tobacco Control and its executive regulations.
