If you want to know which FDA-approved vapes you can buy in 2027, here is the short answer. The FDA has authorized 48 e-cigarettes from five brands: Vuse, NJOY, JUUL, Logic, and Glas. The FDA says these are the only e-cigarettes that can be sold legally in the United States.
This guide walks you through the full list, brand by brand, and shows you what could change during 2027. You will also learn how to check any vape yourself, so you never have to guess what you are buying.
Last checked: The FDA last updated its list on August 28, 2026. The list had no new e-cigarettes through the end of October 2026. We will update this guide when the FDA adds or removes a product.
Are There Any FDA-Approved Vapes?
The FDA uses the word "authorized," not "approved." Most people search for FDA-approved vapes, but the official term is FDA-authorized. In its own words, the FDA says: "While these products are authorized to be sold in the United States, it does not mean these products are safe, nor are they 'FDA approved.'"
To get on the list, a company must submit a Premarket Tobacco Product Application, often called a PMTA. If the FDA agrees, it gives that product a marketing granted order. This is written permission to sell that exact product to adults 21 and over.
Here is what that means for you:
- Authorization covers one product at a time, in one flavor and one nicotine strength.
- It is permission to sell. It is not a safety stamp, and the FDA says all tobacco products are harmful and potentially addictive.
- The FDA can pull an authorization later, for example, if youth use of a product goes up.
- A product that is "pending" or "in review" is not authorized yet.

1. Vuse: 16 Products
Vuse, made by R.J. Reynolds, has more products on the list than any other brand. The FDA has authorized four Vuse product lines:
- Vuse Alto: the Alto Power Unit plus Golden Tobacco and Rich Tobacco pods, from 1.8% up to 5% nicotine. Authorized July 18, 2024.
- Vuse Solo: the Solo Power Unit and Original 4.8% cartridges. Authorized October 12, 2021, the first e-cigarette the FDA ever authorized.
- Vuse Vibe: two Vibe Power Units and the Original 3.0% tank. Authorized May 12, 2022.
- Vuse Ciro: two Ciro Power Units and the Original 1.5% cartridge. Authorized May 12, 2022.
The Vuse Alto is the easiest one to find. Our Vuse Alto Power Unit in Slate is a popular pick. If you want more color, we also carry the Vuse Alto Red Power Unit and the Vuse Alto Teal Power Unit.
For refills, Golden Tobacco pods are on the FDA list in every strength we carry:
- Vuse Alto Golden Tobacco Pods 1.8% 2-Pack for a light hit
- Vuse Alto Golden Tobacco Pods 2.4% 2-Pack for a middle option
- Vuse Alto Golden Tobacco Pods 5% 2-Pack if you used to smoke a lot
- Vuse Alto Golden Tobacco Pods 5% 6-Pack if you want to stock up
You can also save on reorders with the Golden Tobacco Pods 2.4% 4-Pack or the Golden Tobacco Pods 5% 4-Pack. To see every option, browse our Vuse Alto range or all of our Vuse pods and vape kits.
One thing to know: Vuse Alto Menthol pods are not on the FDA list. The FDA denied them in October 2023, but a federal court paused that order, so they are still on sale while the case and a new FDA application move forward. The same applies to Vuse Vibe menthol tanks.
2. NJOY: 10 Products
NJOY, owned by Altria, has two product lines on the list.
NJOY Daily is the only disposable vape the FDA has authorized. It comes in four versions, and you can shop all of them here:
- NJOY Daily Rich Tobacco 4.5%
- NJOY Daily Extra Rich Tobacco 6%
- NJOY Daily Menthol 4.5%
- NJOY Daily Extra Menthol 6%
The FDA authorized the tobacco versions on June 10, 2022. The menthol versions followed on June 21, 2024, and they were the first menthol vapes the FDA ever authorized. You can see the full lineup on our NJOY disposables page.
The NJOY ACE device and five ACE pods are also on the list. However, a patent ruling has kept NJOY ACE off US shelves since March 31, 2025, so you will not find it in stores right now.
3. JUUL: 8 Products
JUUL has two generations of devices on the list.
The original JUUL device and JUULpods in Virginia Tobacco and Menthol, at 3% and 5%, were authorized on July 17, 2025. The newer JUUL2 device, with Virginia Tobacco and Polar Menthol pods at 18 mg/mL (about 1.6% nicotine), was authorized on August 28, 2026. JUUL2 pods only fit the JUUL2 device, so you cannot mix them with original JUUL pods.
To start with the original JUUL, pick up the JUUL Slate device. Then choose your pods:
- JUUL Virginia Tobacco Pods 5% 4-Pack
- JUUL Virginia Tobacco Pods 3% 4-Pack
- JUUL Menthol Pods 5% 4-Pack
- JUUL Menthol Pods 3% 4-Pack
Want a smaller pack? Grab the JUUL Virginia Tobacco Pods 5% 2-Pack or the JUUL Menthol Pods 5% 2-Pack. Every JUUL item on our JUUL pods and devices page is on the FDA list.
4. Logic: 8 Products
Logic, owned by Japan Tobacco, had all eight of its products authorized on March 24, 2022. Most belong to the Logic Power and Logic Pro systems, and all are tobacco-flavored.
Here are the authorized Logic products you can buy from us:
- Logic Power Tobacco Starter Kit, a rechargeable cigalike that feels close to a cigarette
- Logic Power Tobacco Cartomizers at 2.4% nicotine
- Logic Pro Vaporizer Starter Kit, the Logic Pro capsule system
- Logic Pro Black Label Tobacco Capsules at 1.8% nicotine
You can find refills on our Logic Power cartomizers page and our Logic Pro page, or see the full range of Logic e-cigs. Keep in mind that only the tobacco versions are on the FDA list. Logic menthol products are not.
5. Glas: 6 Products
Glas is the newest brand on the list. The FDA authorized the Glas G2 device and a Blonde Tobacco pod on March 12, 2026. On May 5, 2026, it added four more pods: Classic Menthol, Fresh Menthol, Gold (mango) and Sapphire (blueberry). All Glas pods are 5% nicotine.
Gold and Sapphire are the first fruit flavors the FDA has ever authorized. The FDA said this was possible because the Glas G2 uses ID checks and pairs with your phone, which helps keep it out of young people's hands.
Which Disposable Vapes Are FDA Approved?
Only one disposable vape is on the FDA list: NJOY Daily. It comes in four versions: Rich Tobacco 4.5%, Extra Rich Tobacco 6%, Menthol 4.5%, and Extra Menthol 6%.
Most bright, fruity disposables you see at gas stations and smoke shops have no FDA authorization. If you want a disposable that is on the list, NJOY Daily is your only choice. It needs no charging and no refills, so you can open it and use it right away.
Are Any Flavored Vapes FDA Approved?
Two fruit flavors are authorized: Glas Gold (mango) and Glas Sapphire (blueberry). Both work only in the Glas G2 device.
Beyond those, nine menthol products are on the list:
- NJOY: Daily Menthol 4.5%, Daily Extra Menthol 6%, ACE Menthol 2.4% and ACE Menthol 5%
- JUUL: JUULpods Menthol at 3% and 5%
- JUUL2: Polar Menthol pods
- Glas: Classic Menthol and Fresh Menthol pods
If you like menthol and want an option you can buy today, the NJOY Daily Menthol 4.5% and the JUUL Menthol Pods 3% 4-Pack are both on the FDA list.
FDA-Approved Vapes You May Not Find in Stores
Some authorized products are hard to find on store shelves. Here are the four to know about:
- NJOY ACE: blocked from import and sale since March 31, 2025, because of a patent ruling.
- Vuse Ciro: authorized, but rarely sold in US stores.
- Logic Vapeleaf: a hybrid tobacco-leaf system that is rarely sold in US stores.
- Glas G2: new to the market, and a patent case could limit its sales in 2027.
What Could Change for FDA-Approved Vapes in 2027
The list of 48 could grow or shrink in 2027. These are the four things to watch:
- More JUUL2 options: On August 28, 2026, JUUL said it plans to file for 5% JUUL2 pods and more flavors. These are plans, not authorizations, and the FDA has not given a timeline.
- The Glas patent case: On October 20, 2026, a US trade judge found that Glas products infringe two JUUL patents and recommended blocking imports. The full commission still has to decide, so Glas products could get harder to find in 2027.
- A court case over pending vapes: In July 2026, health groups sued the FDA over a May 2026 policy that lets some products with pending applications stay on sale. A hearing is set for December 11, 2026. The case does not change the list of 48, but it could change what you see on store shelves.
- Vuse Alto Menthol: A new application is under FDA review, and the court pause is still in place. No decision date has been announced.
Some states also have new vape rules starting January 1, 2027, such as Tennessee's vape directory. Products on the FDA list can be included in every state directory, so they are the most reliable choice if you want your vape to stay easy to buy.
How to Check If a Vape Is FDA Authorized
You can check any product yourself in a few minutes:
- Go to the FDA's authorized e-cigarette list. The FDA updates it on the day a new product is authorized.
- Match the exact product name and nicotine strength. Authorization covers one flavor and one strength at a time.
- For more detail, search the FDA's Searchable Tobacco Products Database.
- Remember, a pending application or a listing in a state directory is not FDA authorization.
