INDIANA – The smoking age in Indiana goes up this week.

The minimum age to buy cigarettes and other nicotine products will jump from 18 to 21 on Wednesday. The new rules also ban anyone under 21 from buying e-cigarettes and e-liquids.

The new law doubles fines for businesses caught selling to underage smokers.

This brings Indiana law into alignment with federal law.  You can read more on SB1 here.
