Amazon Prime strictly prohibits the sale of vaping devices, e-cigarettes, e-liquids (including those containing nicotine or THC/CBD), cartridges, pods, and related consumables. This policy extends globally across all Amazon marketplaces.
Key Policy Restrictions
- No Nicotine/Tobacco Products: Amazon’s “Tobacco and Tobacco-Related Products” policy explicitly bans all ENDS (Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems).
- No CBD/THC Vape Products: Vaping items containing CBD, THC, or any cannabis-derived compounds are forbidden due to regulatory complexities.
- No Components/Consumables: This prohibition includes individual parts like coils, empty pods, tanks, and e-liquids regardless of nicotine content.
Enforcement & Listings Removal
Amazon actively scans for and removes listings violating this policy. Sellers attempting to circumvent restrictions (e.g., using code words, false descriptions) face swift account suspension and permanent removal of selling privileges. Genuine enforcement is robust.
Compliant Accessories (Potential Options)
Important Caveat: Listing eligibility depends on specific marketplace regulations and Amazon’s constantly evolving content checks. Items must not be marketed for use with nicotine, tobacco, THC, or CBD.
- Repair Tools: Standalone coil building kits for resistance wire (without cotton/wick), ceramic tweezers, precision screwdrivers.
- Battery Cases: Protective cases explicitly sold for standard lithium-ion battery sizes (e.g., 18650, 21700), not bundled with devices.
- Generic Chargers: USB chargers for lithium-ion batteries sold separately without branding tied to vaping.
- Carrying Cases/Bags: Generic padded cases or pouches without vaping branding.
Critical Reminder: Purchasing age-restricted tobacco/nicotine products online requires thorough verification of seller legitimacy and adherence to local laws (e.g., PACT Act, FDA regulations, Tobacco 21) – Amazon Prime is not a compliant source. Always prioritize legal and age-verified vendors.
