Brazil Airport Smoking Regulations
Brazil’s Federal Law 12,546/2011 (Lei Antifumo) banned smoking in all enclosed public spaces, including airports, workplaces, and restaurants, with no exceptions for dedicated smoking rooms. This makes Brazil one of the strictest countries in the Americas for tobacco control. All smoking areas at Brazilian airports must be open-air and outdoors. Fines for violating the ban start at R$2,000 (approximately $400 USD) and increase for repeat offenses. ANVISA (Brazil’s health regulatory agency) actively monitors compliance at airports. E-cigarettes and vaping devices are banned for sale, importation, and advertising in Brazil under ANVISA Resolution RDC 46/2009, though personal possession is not criminalized. Brazil’s extensive anti-smoking policies include graphic health warnings covering 30% of cigarette pack fronts and 100% of backs.
