Yes, you can smoke at Shiraz Shahid Dastgheib International Airport (SYZ) — open-air smoking outside the terminal buildings, landside, is permitted; the airport publishes no designated area. No smoking facility inside the terminal or after security is confirmed.

Shiraz’s airport runs two connected terminal buildings — one for domestic flights, one for international and charter services — a short walk apart.

Terminal Buildings

No smoking facility inside either terminal, or past security in either of them, is confirmed. Two independent travel-guide sites describe a small, poorly ventilated smoking room past security in the domestic terminal, easy to find because the terminal has few other facilities; neither source dates the account or names a traveller, so treat it as unconfirmed and plan to smoke in the open air outside the terminal entrance before you check in or clear security — once you are past the checkpoint there is no way back out to smoke without re-screening.

Outdoor Smoking

Landside, open-air smoking outside whichever terminal building you are using is permitted; this is the only confirmed smoking option at Shiraz Airport, for arriving and departing passengers alike.

Vaping

The airport publishes no separate rule for e-cigarettes at Shiraz — use the same open-air landside option as for cigarettes.
