Age Verification Policy
We take youth protection seriously
Why We Verify Age
Vaping products contain nicotine, which is highly addictive and harmful to developing brains. Canadian law prohibits the sale of vaping products to minors, and we're committed to keeping these products out of the hands of youth.
As a responsible retailer, we use multiple verification methods to ensure every customer is of legal age in their province.
Legal Vaping Age by Province
The legal age to purchase vaping products varies by province and territory:
| Province / Territory | Legal Age |
|---|---|
| Alberta | 18+ |
| Manitoba | 18+ |
| Quebec | 18+ |
| Saskatchewan | 18+ |
| British Columbia | 19+ |
| Ontario | 19+ |
| New Brunswick | 19+ |
| Newfoundland & Labrador | 19+ |
| Nova Scotia | 19+ |
| Northwest Territories | 19+ |
| Nunavut | 19+ |
| Yukon | 19+ |
| Prince Edward Island | 21+ |
You must be of legal age in your province to purchase from Vapeshop Mania.
How We Verify Your Age
We use a two-step verification process to ensure compliance with Canadian law:
At Checkout
When you place an order, you confirm that you are of legal age in your province. We may use third-party age verification services to validate your information against public records.
At Delivery
The delivery person will ask for government-issued photo ID to verify your age before handing over the package. This is required by Canadian federal law (Tobacco and Vaping Products Act) for all online vape sales.
No ID, No Package
If no one of legal age is available to present ID at delivery, the carrier cannot release the package. It will be held at your local post office for pickup. You'll need to bring valid photo ID to collect it.
Accepted ID Types
The following government-issued photo IDs are accepted for age verification at delivery:
Driver's Licence
Passport
Provincial ID Card
ID Requirements
Your ID must be government-issued, include your photo and date of birth, and not be expired. The name on your ID should match the name on your order.
Our Commitment to Youth Protection
Vapeshop Mania is committed to responsible retailing. We believe vaping products should only be available to adult smokers looking for alternatives, not to youth or non-smokers.
Our policies include:
- Strict age verification at checkout and delivery
- No marketing that appeals to youth
- Clear health warnings on all products
- Compliance with all federal and provincial regulations
- Refusing sales to anyone we suspect is purchasing for a minor
If you suspect someone is purchasing vaping products for minors, please report it to us.
