Signed into effect in December 2020, the PACT Act has been extended to cover all electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDs) from March 2021. This includes e-cigarettes and vaping products. Although the impact will initially be felt mostly by retailers and private carriers, as a customer, the services you receive will be affected, too. We appreciate your your business and understanding during these uncertain times in the vape industry.
WHAT THIS MEANS:
- USPS has banned the shipping of Vape Products after April 27th, 2021.
- Adult signature AND a government-issued photo ID will be required upon delivery from now on.
- You will notice an increase in shipping costs for the time being. We are working to reduce these costs.
- Retailers are required to charge SALES tax for the states based on the “ship to” address used for the order.
- Retailers are required to charge appropriate EXCISE tax for the states based on the “ship to” address used for the order.
- Expect slower delivery times.
- UPS and Fedex have banned the shipping of Vape Products as of April 5th, 2021 until further notice
- After April 27th we will no longer ship outside of the continental USA which includes Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Alaska, and APO/ FPO addresses until further notice.
