Yes, vaping is legal in Dubai and the UAE as long as you follow certain rules and regulations. The UAE has carried out vaping legal guidelines that permit the sale, purchase, and use of e-cigarettes and vaping merchandise containing nicotine. However, there are restrictions on where you can vape. Vaping is prohibited in closed public spaces like malls, restaurants, hotels, and airports. It's also not allowed in places of worship or government buildings. You can vape in designated smoking areas or open-air public spaces away from non-smokers.

The cost of vaping in Dubai can vary significantly depending on the specific products you buy. A basic starter kit with a vape pen or mod can range from AED 100 to AED 500 or more. Replacement coils typically cost between AED 15 and AED 50 each. E-liquid prices vary based on brand, bottle size, and nicotine strength, but you can expect to pay anywhere from AED 30 to AED 100 or higher for a 30ml bottle. Disposable vape pens are usually the most affordable option, costing between AED 20 and AED 60 per device.

There is no single definitive "best" vape brand, as preferences can differ greatly among vapers. However, some of the most popular and well-regarded brands in the UAE include SMOK, Voopoo, Geekvape, Freemax, Nasty Juice, Naked 100, and Aqua. These brands are known for generating incredible vape mods, tanks, coils, and e-beverages with first rate taste and vapor manufacturing. Ultimately, the "best" brand for you will depend on your specific needs, budget, and vaping style.

Yes, you can bring disposable vape products with you when traveling to Dubai. However, there are limits on the amount of liquids you can carry on airplanes. Most airlines allow you to bring vape liquids up to 100ml in your carry-on baggage, with individual bottles not exceeding 100ml. Anything above these limits should go in your checked luggage. It's a good idea to keep your vape gear, including disposables, in your carry-on bag for easier access.

There is no definitive number of vape puffs that equates to a single cigarette, as this can vary based on several factors. These include the type of vape device, e-liquid strength, puff duration, and an individual's inhalation style. However, some general estimates suggest that 14-25 puffs from a vape pen with lower nicotine strength may approximate the nicotine intake of one traditional cigarette. With higher nicotine levels or sub-ohm devices, this number could be lower at around 8-15 puffs per cigarette equivalent. Ultimately, it depends on achieving your desired nicotine satisfaction level.
