In China, tobacco sales are prohibited near schools, although a distance is not specified in the national law. Tobacco advertising at the point of sale is banned. In 2022, China also banned flavored e-cigarettes (other than tobacco flavored) and disallowed e-cigarette retailers from exclusively selling a single brand of product.  
 
IGTC assessed cigarette and e-cigarette marketing at retailers within 100m (in urban areas) or 250m (in rural areas) of middle and high schools in ten cities in China in March 2021 and April 2023. This fact sheet summarizes the study findings, compares the 2021 and 2023 results, and concludes that the sale and marketing of cigarettes in proximity to schools in China remains widespread.
