Palenie tytoniu jest dozwolone w kraju, jednak obowiązują pewne ograniczenia. Papierosy można legalnie sprzedawać i kupować, również przez internet oraz w automatach. Import na cele handlowe jest dozwolony pod warunkiem posiadania odpowiedniej licencji. Wyroby tytoniowe mogą być reklamowane, lecz podlegają ograniczeniom; nie obowiązuje jednak całkowity zakaz reklamy papierosów. Na opakowaniach wymagane są ostrzeżenia zdrowotne. Nie ma minimalnego wieku zakupu papierosów, ani przepisów zabraniających palenia w miejscach publicznych. Całkowita stawka podatku na papierosy wynosi 23,23%. W 2021 roku w Saint Vincent i Grenadynach paleniu przypisano szacunkowo 49 zgonów – 38 wśród mężczyzn i 11 wśród kobiet. Oznacza to, że w tamtym roku palenie stanowiło przyczynę 4,27% wszystkich zgonów w kraju, w tym 5,64% zgonów mężczyzn i 2,28% zgonów kobiet.
