Na Białorusi palenie tytoniu jest dozwolone, jednak obowiązują pewne ograniczenia. Sprzedaż papierosów jest legalna, lecz ich nabycie za pośrednictwem automatów lub przez internet jest zabronione. Import papierosów w celach handlowych wymaga posiadania licencji importowej. Obowiązuje całkowity zakaz reklamy. Ponadto na opakowaniach papierosów muszą znajdować się ostrzeżenia zdrowotne, a minimalny wiek uprawniający do zakupu papierosów wynosi 18 lat. W miejscach publicznych, takich jak placówki edukacyjne, obowiązują dodatkowe ograniczenia dotyczące palenia. Łączna stawka podatku akcyzowego na papierosy wynosi 57%. W 2022 roku na Białorusi szacowano, że liczba dorosłych osób palących wynosiła 1,7 miliona, a rozpowszechnienie palenia wśród dorosłych sięgało 22,6%. Wśród mężczyzn odsetek ten wynosił 42%, a wśród kobiet 10%. Codzienne palenie odnotowano u 39,1% dorosłych – 20,3% mężczyzn i 8,1% kobiet. W tym samym roku palenie przyczyniło się do około 19,8 tysiąca zgonów, z czego 17 tysięcy stanowili mężczyźni, a 2,8 tysiąca kobiety. Oznacza to, że palenie odpowiadało za 12,23% wszystkich zgonów w kraju, w tym za 21,21% zgonów wśród mężczyzn i 3,42% wśród kobiet.

The European Union (EU) Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) 2016 Changes to the EU TPD
- No Fire, No Smoke: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction
The TPD is a Directive of the EU which means that all EU countries must ‘transpose’ or incorporate the TPD requirements into their national laws. The only flexibility permitted is the ability to enact additional regulations. The current Directive entered into force on 19th May 2014 and became applicable in the EU Member States on 20th May 2016.
In 2014 a revised Tobacco Products Directive known as TPD 2 was issued by the EU to update the 2001 Tobacco Products Directive. TPD2 regulates all tobacco products in the European Union and its scope is wide. It covers product regulation in terms of reporting obligations of ingredients and emissions for all tobacco products. It includes product packaging and labelling including the size and appearance of products, traceability features to be fixed onto packaging as well as health warnings. It covers cross-border advertising of tobacco products; it reinforces the ban on oral tobacco products (snus), but importantly it provides for the placing on the market of e-cigarettes and refill containers, as well as making provision for notification of novel tobacco products. It also provides for herbal cigarettes.
