With smoking regulations looming across EU, how does vape consumption compare in Europe?
Belgium has become the first EU country to ban the sale of disposable vapes, addressing public health and environmental concerns. Vaping rates in Europe remain low overall but are significantly higher among young people, as highlighted by an OECD report. Luxembourg, Estonia, and Czechia lead in vaping rates, exceeding 10%, while Bulgaria, Austria, and Croatia have rates below 1%. Among those aged 15 to 24, the average vaping rate in 2022 was 6.5%, with Estonia at 30%, the Czech Republic at 25%, and Luxembourg at 20%.
