Vaping And The World Cup: What Are The Rules?

Can you vape in Qatar?

Vaping is strictly prohibited in Qatar. An absolute ban came into effect in 2014, with possession of a vape device alone having significant consequences. Travelling fans of England and Wales have been warned that they could be hit with hefty penalties, if they’re caught vaping, and there will be no shops selling devices or e-liquids in the Arab nation.

Those found bending the rules face fines up to the equivalent of £2,200 or a maximum of three months in prison. There are a number of restrictions in place in the country, from drinking alcohol to public shows of affection.

While some restrictions, such as alcohol consumption, have been relaxed during the tournament in chain hotels, vaping rules remain the same. In short, leave your device at home!
