Malaysia's e-cigarette market is anticipated to witness progressive growth in the upcoming years on the back of the rising adoption of e-cigarettes in place of conventional ones, backed by the low use of nicotine in e-cigarettes, which is instigating the interest of the majority of consumers in the product. The increased urge for smoking in the country, along with the variety of flavours available in e-cigarettes, is drawing the interest of many consumers and leading to an increased demand for the product in the country, which is further expected to benefit the potential growth of the Malaysia e-cigarette market in the upcoming years. People are increasingly using e-cigarettes, or electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS), as a substitute for smoking or for recreational purposes. Since 1972, the state has subsidised the national tobacco industry through a special fund supported by a 7% tax on each pack of cigarettes. Due to the growing health concern over the usage of conventional tobacco-based cigarettes, the e-cigarette market has witnessed significant growth over the past decade.

According to the research report "Malaysia E-Cigarette Market Overview, 2028," published by Bonafide Research, the market is expected to add USD 0.50 Billion by 2028. E-cigarettes hold a major share of the tobacco product segment. The rechargeable e-cigarettes are expected to witness the highest growth rate in the coming years on the back of the increased life of the product, which facilitates repeated use of the product. Moreover, manufacturers are introducing new-generation products that offer different strengths of nicotine and enable users to refill the cartridge. Modular e-cigarettes can be refilled by the user, but they also allow the user to regulate the power from the batteries to the atomizer. Apart from this, the easy availability of e-cigarettes across the well-distributed retail sector has further escalated the market growth in the country. Furthermore, the manufacturer's offering of customization capabilities such as temperature control and nicotine dosages is projected to boost product demand. Moreover, players’ continual improvement in new product development is expected to accelerate market expansion.

There are an estimated 4.7 million male smokers in Malaysia, and more than 135,000 of them are women. Some 49% of male smokers are aged 30 to 34. Smoking prevalence is 45% or higher across all age groups among men. Of male teens aged 15 to 19, almost 25% smoke. The latest report from the World Health Organization (WHO) shows that the smoking rate in Malaysia has been decreasing, falling from almost 25% to 21% by 2020. Although the largely unregulated tobacco market still presents a significant problem in the country, the average starting age for smoking has been decreasing in recent years, according to national surveys.

Market growth was driven by the increase in the vaping population and the decrease in dual usage, with more and more smokers switching completely to e-cigarette products due to the affordability and availability of the products. This report offers a comprehensive overview of Malaysia's e-cigarette market, covering all areas from market size and vaping population to retail channels and form factors. On the back of rising efforts of various top e-cigarette brands in the country towards increasing the market value by boosting sales through aggressive promotion, The increased urge for smoking in the country, along with the variety of flavours available in e-cigarettes, is drawing the interest of many consumers and leading to an increased demand for the product in the country, which is further expected to benefit the potential growth of the Malaysia e-cigarette market.

Owing to the rising awareness about the harmful effects of traditional tobacco-based combustible cigarettes, the perception of consumers towards combustible cigarettes is changing rapidly, and a growing number of smokers are shifting towards electronic cigarettes to control their daily nicotine dosage. Further, the market is expected to increase due to the growing popularity of e-cigarettes, an upsurge in the working population, a shift towards next-generation products, the mounting prices of tobacco cigarettes, etc. Side effects caused by the use of e-cigarettes and vapour products are acting as a restraint on the e-cigarette market. E-cigarettes and vapour products contain harmful chemicals and toxins that have health risks. The chemicals and toxins may cause serious health problems, including cancer. Some other challenges that the e-cigarette market faces are stringent regulations, nicotine exposure in e-cigarettes, etc.

The offline segment accounted for the highest market share. Earlier, e-cigarettes were sold in retail outlets such as vape shops and gas stations. These shops, which allow customers to try out and test these devices before making a purchase decision, are expected to drive the retail store segment growth over the forecast period. The online segment is anticipated to register a significant CAGR over the forecast period. The benefits of an online marketplace in terms of competitive pricing, convenience, and access to a wider variety of products encourage people to purchase e-cigarettes and vape online. The country has also been witnessing a rising demand for e-cigarette products, encouraging sellers to sell e-cigarettes online.

Covid-19
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the global e-cigarette market witnessed a sharp decline. The pandemic forced people to pay attention to their health and quit habits like smoking to tackle this situation. Thus, it impeded the demand for e-cigarettes throughout the pandemic period. Further, retail stores and outlets also stopped offering their products to abide by the government rules, which hampered the growth of the e-cigarette market. In the country, the ease of lockdown restrictions has increased the sales of e-cigarettes like before.
