Smoke-free generations
Dear Madam,
Dear Sir,
A legislative amendment of 5 April 2024 extended the scope of the law of 22 December 2009 establishing a regulation on the ban on smoking in certain places and the protection of the population against tobacco smoke.
All tobacco products and similar products that can be smoked are covered, including electronic cigarettes (with or without nicotine).
The ban applies to all grounds considered sports grounds by their nature and purpose, as well as to all surrounding areas.
Penalties for offences range from €208 to €8,000.
The ban does not (for the time being) apply to Horeca terraces located near sports grounds.
Yours sincerely,
Alain Henrotte
Director
