E-papierosy są legalne w Czechach, a ich sprzedaż i używanie są dozwolone na mocy przepisów. Można je kupić w ogólnodostępnych punktach sprzedaży, jednak sprzedaż przez internet jest zabroniona. Obowiązujące regulacje obejmują szereg wymagań, takich jak obowiązek zgłaszania nowych produktów, stosowania opakowań zabezpieczających przed dostępem dzieci oraz zabezpieczonych przed manipulacją, a także zamieszczania ostrzeżeń zdrowotnych na opakowaniach. Sprzedaż tych produktów jest dozwolona wyłącznie osobom, które ukończyły 18 lat. Ponadto wprowadzono ograniczenia dotyczące zawartości nikotyny, która nie może przekraczać 20 mg/ml, oraz pojemności zbiorników – maksymalnie 2 ml (2025). Nie wprowadzono natomiast ograniczeń co do wyboru smaków. Używanie e-papierosów w miejscach publicznych również podlega regulacjom i ograniczeniom. Jeśli chodzi o rozpowszechnienie tego zjawiska, według szacunków z 2023 roku w Czechach było około 358 200 aktualnych użytkowników e-papierosów. Odsetek dorosłych obecnie używających e-papierosów wynosił ogółem 4%. W 2021 roku udział ten wynosił 6% wśród kobiet i 8,8% wśród mężczyzn. W 2023 roku codzienne używanie e-papierosów zadeklarowało 2,5% dorosłych, przy wcześniejszych szacunkach na poziomie 3,5% u kobiet i 4,5% u mężczyzn (2021). W badaniu przeprowadzonym w 2017 roku 20% dorosłych poinformowało, że kiedykolwiek próbowało e-papierosów. Inne badanie z 2017 roku dotyczące postrzegania szkodliwości e-papierosów wykazało, że 56% respondentów uznawało e-papierosy za równie szkodliwe lub bardziej szkodliwe od tradycyjnych papierosów, 30% uważało je za mniej szkodliwe lub nieszkodliwe, a 14% nie miało zdania.
