Loopholes for Underage Access in E-Cigarette Delivery Sales Laws, United States, 2022.

To comprehensively catalog and review state e-cigarette delivery sales laws as well as capture their scope and dimensions. We conducted an in-depth review to determine whether states had at least 1 form of e-cigarette delivery sales law. We coded laws for 5 key policy domains: (1) delivery terminology used in laws, (2) age verification requirements, (3) packaging label requirements, (4) permit or registration requirements, and (5) fines and penalties for violations. Overall, 34 states had e-cigarette delivery sales laws with varying scopes and dimensions. In 27 states, these laws required at least 1 form of age verification requirements. We identified mandatory packaging labels in 12 states, and 7 states where permits were required. There were considerable differences among states on the scale of fines and penalties for violations. Our findings reveal extensive heterogeneity in e-cigarette delivery sales laws among states, particularly regarding the scope and dimensions of these laws. The mapping of e-cigarette delivery sales policies showed several potential loopholes that may diminish their effectiveness. (. 2023;113(5):568-576. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2023.307228).
