Is there a smoking ban in Mexico?
From January 2023 it’s prohibited to smoke in public places and you can be fined.
This includes smoking in patios, terraces, balconies, amusement parks, playgrounds, sports areas, hotels, beaches, entertainment centres, courts, stadiums, arenas, shopping malls, markets, hospitals, clinics, churches or places of religious worship, restaurants and bars.
However, our resort teams have advised that there will be designated smoking areas in hotels for customers, which is permitted within the new regulations. It’s important to note that it is also prohibited to take e-cigarettes and refills into Mexico - security checks are in place when you arrive, and your luggage will be scanned. Anyone found to have one of the previously mentioned will have this confiscated. It’s worth knowing that you cannot purchase e-cigarettes in Mexico.
