W Wenezueli palenie tytoniu jest dozwolone, jednak podlega pewnym regulacjom. Sprzedaż papierosów jest legalna, lecz zakazane jest ich kupowanie w automatach oraz przez internet. Import papierosów do obrotu jest możliwy wyłącznie na podstawie odpowiedniej licencji importowej. Opakowania papierosów muszą zawierać ostrzeżenia zdrowotne, a reklama wyrobów tytoniowych podlega całkowitemu zakazowi. Minimalny wiek uprawniający do zakupu papierosów to 18 lat. Ponadto prawo ogranicza możliwość palenia w miejscach publicznych, aby zmniejszyć narażenie na dym tytoniowy z tzw. biernego palenia. Podatek całkowity na papierosy wynosi w Wenezueli 0,73. Jeśli chodzi o dane statystyczne, w 2023 roku codzienna częstość palenia wśród dorosłych wynosiła 13,1% – 17% wśród mężczyzn i 9,4% wśród kobiet. Ogólna częstość aktualnego palenia tytoniu wśród dorosłych jest wyższa – dotyczy 25,2% mężczyzn oraz 13,9% kobiet. Szacuje się, że całkowita liczba obecnych palaczy w kraju wyniosła w 2023 roku 4,2 miliona. Palenie tytoniu istotnie przyczynia się do śmiertelności w Wenezueli. W 2021 roku około 14 100 zgonów przypisano paleniu tytoniu, z czego 10 300 dotyczyło mężczyzn, a 3 800 kobiet. Oznacza to, że zgony związane z paleniem stanowiły 5,08% wszystkich zgonów w kraju, w tym 6,37% zgonów mężczyzn i 3,27% kobiet. Dane te wskazują na poważny wpływ palenia tytoniu na zdrowie publiczne w Wenezueli.
