Vape e-liquid (1 ml) prices by country

Vape e-liquid (1 ml) costs from $0.27 in Peru to $12.66 in New Zealand, across 20 countries priced in US dollars and in local currency.

The sparsest item in the game, and for a reason worth knowing: a country is only listed if disposable vapes are legally on sale there. Several of the largest markets in this table ban or restrict them outright, so an empty row is a policy fact rather than a gap in the data.
