On December 10, the official website of the Welsh Government of the United Kingdom issued a press release stating that the Welsh Parliament (Senedd) passed a vote to introduce the Environmental Protection (Disposable vapes) (Wales) Regulations 2024, which prohibits the supply of disposable vapes in Wales.
According to the results of the parliamentary vote, Huw Irranca-Davies, Deputy First Minister of Wales and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs, said that this marked an important step in eliminating the disposable culture and its impact on the environment.
The regulations will come into effect on June 1, 2025. The Welsh Government has worked with the British government and other local governments to ensure that all regions implement the ban simultaneously. From June 1, 2025, disposable vapes of any form cannot be sold or given away for free.
The Welsh Government reminds companies that they should contact suppliers immediately to order replacements, start training employees and inform customers. Companies also need to organize safe handling measures for disposable vapes for customers.

Hugh Ilanka Davis, Deputy First Minister of Wales and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs, said that the passage of this regulation is an important step towards eliminating the disposable culture. Veehoo vapes agree with this move, believing that it will help reduce plastic waste and environmental pollution, and also remind consumers to pay attention to and support such environmental protection initiatives.
The Welsh government has worked with the British government and other local governments to ensure the simultaneous implementation of the ban. Veehoo vapes calls on all relevant companies to actively cooperate and contact suppliers in a timely manner to order alternatives. At the same time, Veehoo encourages companies to provide training for employees, inform customers about the new regulations, and organize safe handling measures for disposable vapes to ensure a smooth transition.
