In the UK, it is illegal to sell e-cigarettes, vaping devices, and e-liquids to anyone under the age of 18. This is in accordance with the UK's Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016, which also requires all retailers of vaping products to verify the age of their customers.

To comply with the age restriction policy, vape shops in the UK must:

• Display prominent signs stating that they do not sell vaping products to anyone under 18 years of age.

• Verify the age of customers through an age verification process that requires them to provide proof of their age, such as a valid ID or passport.

• Train their staff on the age restriction policy and ensure that they do not sell vaping products to anyone who appears to be under 18 years of age.

• Refuse to sell vaping products to anyone who is unable to provide proof of their age or who appears to be under 18 years of age.

Failure to comply with the age restriction policy can result in fines or legal action against the vape shop owner.

It's important to note that the age restriction policy applies not only to physical vape shops but also to online retailers of vaping products. Online retailers must also have a robust age verification process in place and ensure that they do not sell vaping products to anyone under the age of 18
