Smoking age around the world

The smoking age is the minimum legal age required to purchase or use tobacco products. Most countries have laws that forbid the sale of tobacco products to persons younger than certain ages, usually the age of majority.

List

Country	De jure		Notes
	Legal age to smoke any tobacco products	Legal age to buy any tobacco products
Caphiria	16		It is illegal to sell tobacco products to anyone under the age of 16 years. Minors under the age of 16 years may not smoke in any school or on school property.
Cartadania	17		Ban on domestic growth of tobacco and higher tariffs on its derivatives have discouraged smoking of cigarettes over the years. Alexandria, Alahuela, Milan, Porta Bianca, São Ricardo, and Verona have increased their age of tobacco consumption to 21 years.
Duōmachāha	Illegal		The smoking of any and all tobacco products is illegal. The production of tobacco products is illegal unless sanctioned by the government, and the distribution of use of tobacco products in Duōmachāha is strictly illegal.
Eldmora-Regulus	20		It is illegal to sell tobacco products to anyone under the age of 20. In 2010, the Volksforum passed a law that imposed a 5% additional Tobacco Tax on Tobacco and it's derivative products, discouraging smoking over the years since it's implementation. There's a movement in Eldmora to raise the minimum age to 25, an even smaller movement exists to ban smoking out right in both Eldmora and Regulus. Many schools, university campuses, hospitals, and sport venues have banned smoking on their premises in Eldmora.
Hendalarsk	unregulated	18	Tobacco smoking is taboo in Hendalarskara society, viewed as a Gesellschaftsschade ("societal harm") that is disparaged because of the long-term risk it poses to others. This view holds even in the Pentapolis, one of the few areas where mainland and Serstädtsch mores align, although the behaviour is begrudgingly tolerated among tourists in the Cities. It is therefore only legal for those 18 and over to purchase tobacco products. Hendalarsk's many smokeable indigenous plants can also only be purchased by adults (although anyone may forage them for non-commercial use), although the restriction is in this case a positive cultural one since smoking indigenous plants is traditionally treated as a rite of passage in one's coming-of-age ceremony.
Kiravia	unregulated	14-17	Purchase age varies by state from none (Daridia, Kyllera) to 17 (Fariva). Most states have a purchase age between 14 and 16. Enforcement varies.
Vithinja	Illegal		Because of harsh laws set by the Union of Public Health all smoking of tobacco products is fully illegal for all ages both purchasing and using in any way.
