W Australii e-papierosy są zakazane w ogólnej sprzedaży detalicznej, ale regulowane jako produkty lecznicze. Dlatego terapeutyczne waporyzatory o zawartości nikotyny do 20 mg można uzyskać wyłącznie na receptę i kupić w aptekach. Zakup lub sprzedaż e-papierosów przez internet jest nielegalny, a reklama tych produktów jest całkowicie zakazana. W 2022 roku szacowano, że w Australii było 517 900 aktualnych użytkowników e-papierosów. Odsetek dorosłych aktualnie korzystających z e-papierosów wynosił 2,5%, natomiast w 2023 roku szacowany odsetek dorosłych codziennie używających e-papierosów wyniósł 3,5%. Dodatkowo, według danych z 2016 roku, 8,8% dorosłych zadeklarowało, że kiedykolwiek próbowało wapowania. W badaniu przeprowadzonym w 2017 roku przez Hua-Hie Yong i wsp., 54,1% respondentów uznało e-papierosy za nieszkodliwe lub mniej szkodliwe niż papierosy, 9,1% uważało je za równie szkodliwe, 0,4% za bardziej szkodliwe, a 36,5% nie miało zdania. Ogólnie rzecz biorąc, Australia utrzymuje bardzo restrykcyjne przepisy dotyczące e-papierosów, koncentrując się na nadzorze medycznym, przy jednoczesnym ograniczaniu dostępu publicznego i promocji komercyjnej.
