一、依「菸害防制法」第15條第1項第3款及同條第2項規定，任何人不得輸入電子煙或未經核定通過健康風險評估審查之指定菸品(加熱菸)及其必要之組合元件。目前尚無經衛生福利部核定通過之指定菸品及其必要組合元件，違法輸入之業者最高可處新臺幣5千萬元罰鍰，旅客攜帶加熱菸入境者處新臺幣5萬元至500萬元罰鍰。

In accordance with Article 15, Paragraph 1, Subparagraph 3 and Paragraph 2 of the Tobacco Hazards Prevention Act, no person may import electronic cigarettes or designated tobacco products (such as heated tobacco products) and their necessary components unless they have been approved through a health risk assessment by the Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW).
Currently, no designated tobacco products or related components have been approved by the MOHW.

• Businesses illegally importing such products may face fines of up to NT$50 million.

• Travelers bringing heated tobacco products into Taiwan are subject to fines ranging from NT$50,000 to NT$5 million.

二、衛生福利部為強化非本國籍入境旅客之宣導，已製作完成「禁止攜帶電子煙或加熱菸入境」之英日韓三國語言版本宣導單（如附件），請向教職員工生宣傳周知，並請協助刊掛電視牆、佈告欄。

To enhance awareness among non-Taiwanese travelers, the MOHW has produced multilingual informational leaflets titled “Prohibition of Bringing E-Cigarettes or Heated Tobacco Products into Taiwan”, available in English, Japanese, and Korean (see attachments).
