There are no specific laws regarding Heated Tobacco Products (HTPs) in Senegal. However, these products are classified and regulated as tobacco products in the country. As such, HTPs cannot be sold to minors and cannot be marketed or advertised in any form. The importation of HTPs for personal use is not explicitly addressed in available online resources. If you have any relevant information, please share it with the GSTHR team.
