MANILA, Philippines — Hefty penalties ranging from P5,000 to P20,000 await smokers who will be caught using vapes in indoor public spaces, including government offices, schools, airports, and
released on Thursday a department administrative order promulgating the implementing rules and regulations for Republic Act No. 11900, or the Vaporized Nicotine and Non-Nicotine Products Regulation Act.
In the case of mall kiosks, vape product demonstrations will be allowed in designated product-testing areas. Establishments and retailers selling to minors will be penalized with a P10,000 fine or imprisonment of 30 days or less upon the discretion of the court on the first offense. Third-time violators will face a penalty of P400,000, as well as revocation of their business permits.
“To say that I am disappointed in the 18th Congress that passed the bill, and with the President for not vetoing it, will not do justice to the millions of lives that will be put in harm’s way because of the vape law,” she said.
