South Australia is hitting illegal tobacco and vape sellers with a $3 million crackdown, backed by federal funds to boost inspections, seizures, and enforcement across the state—targeting a market that fuels half of Australia’s illicit tobacco trade. With smoking still costing the economy $2.3 billion annually and rates hitting a record low of 7.5%, authorities are doubling down: 900+ inspections, 100+ fines, and 277 closures already logged. This new push, paired with last year’s stronger legal tools and the state’s unique ban on online tobacco sales, aims to protect public health and economy while disrupting the flow of dangerous products.
