Kyrgyzstan bans vaping in public places and prepares new e-cig restrictions

The use of e-cigarettes and tobacco in public places became illegal this week in Kyrgyzstan – where there is also a proposal to ban both disposable and open-system e-cigs.

The new regulation, amending the law “On Protection of Health of Citizens of Kyrgyz Republic Against Harmful Tobacco Impact”, imposes a ban on the use of vaping products in places such as restaurants, workplaces, at bus stops and on beaches.
