Vietnam Vaping Ban
National Assembly Resolution 173/2024/QH15 banned the production, trade, import, storage, transport and use of e-cigarettes and heated tobacco products from 2025. Decree 371/2025/ND-CP, in force since 31 December 2025, fines users 3 to 5 million dong and requires their devices to be destroyed (Hanoi CDC; Government Official Gazette).
The decree also targets property managers. Anyone who lets others use e-cigarettes on premises they own or manage can be fined 5 to 10 million dong, and organisations face double the fines set for individuals (VietNamNet). Sensors help hotel, school and office managers find vaping fast and show that they do not allow it.
We’re sure Vape Guardian will make a difference. If you’re not happy, our 100-day money-back guarantee means your school, hotel or business in Vietnam can try vape detection without the usual risk.

Sensors for Vietnamese Premises
Lower and upper secondary schools, international schools, universities, hotels, karaoke venues and offices can use sensors to keep their premises vape-free.
Backed by Hundreds of UK Schools
Schools in Vietnam can use the system that hundreds of UK schools already trust to watch over toilets without cameras or microphones.
With fines for premises that allow vaping, hotels, karaoke venues, cinemas and malls can use sensors to catch e-cigarette use in rooms and toilets early.
The Ministry of Health reported that e-cigarette use among students aged 13 to 15 more than doubled in a year, from 3.5% in 2022 to 8.0% in 2023 (VietNamNet, 2024). Here is how our system helps.
