USPS, FedEx plan to ban delivery of e-cigarette products


When Congress approved the most recent appropriations bill to keep the government running, lawmakers also passed the Preventing Online Sales of E-Cigarettes to Children Act , which would ban the United States Postal Service (USPS) from shipping e-cigarette products.


During a Smoke Free Alternatives Trade Association (SFATA) webinar, Patricia Kovacevic, founder and president of PK Regulatory Strategies, said the legislation defines electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) as “devices that deliver nicotine, flavors or any other substance to the user through the inhalation of the device.”


Due to the risks associated with transporting e-cigarette products, the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) will ban the transportation of any form of e-cigarette products (including import and export) in the U.S. domestic logistics network from April 5, 2021 .

Transportation transiting through the United States will not be affected (for example, packages shipped from China to Canada passing through the United States), and applications and projects that are not based in the United States will be allowed.


FedEx announced that e-cigarette products will be included in the list of prohibited transportation from May 1, 2021. DHL also included e-cigarette products in the list of transportation that will not be accepted.


Due to changes in the prohibited items policies of the USPS and FedEx, UPS professional sales staff may receive requests from sellers of e-cigarette products to start shipping with UPS. Based on the upcoming policy changes, UPS said it should not provide service to these sellers , even temporarily.
