DescriptionAfter the president signed a federal law granting regions the right to ban the sale of vapes starting in March 2027, local legislatures gained a powerful legal tool. Members of the St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly had previously actively opposed vape shops in residential buildings and near educational institutions. Experts expect that immediately upon returning from summer recess, the Legislative Assembly of the northern capital will be one of the first in the country to introduce a local bill under its new authority. The question is whether the deputies will submit an official draft of a regional law banning vaping for consideration in the second half of August.
ConditionsYes: if, between August 15 and 31, 2026, a draft local law imposing a complete ban on the retail sale of vapes within the city is officially submitted to and registered with the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg.
No: if, between August 15 and 31, 2026, no such bill is submitted to the St. Petersburg Legislative Assembly for consideration.
