Finding hidden vapes: Inside ICA's mission to uncover contraband at land checkpoints
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox Sergeant Muhammad Shahrul Alqaff Mohammad Juri conducting a vehicle check under the supervision of Checkpoint Inspector Dayangku Suhaila Abdul Aziz (left) at Woodlands Checkpoint on Aug 4. SINGAPORE – Vape smugglers driving through Singapore's land checkpoints have concealed e-vaporisers in a car's dashboard, undercarriage, wheel wells and even in an air filter box. These vehicles are specially modified so they can hide larger quantities of vapes, which have been banned in Singapore since 2018. The modus operandi was disclosed to The Straits Times by officers from the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) on Aug 4 when they gave ST a demonstration of an enhanced inspection at Woodlands Checkpoint. Using a demo car, ICA officers probed every panel and crevice while the search and examination group leader Dayangku Suhaila Abdul Aziz explained what was being examined. One officer with a torchlight went under the steering wheel to check if anything was hidden behind the steering column. Another officer tapped the car's air filter box to determine if it was hollow. The stepped up enforcement comes in the wake of a 2.3 per cent increase in foiled contraband smuggling attempts, as reported in the ICA Annual Statistics 2024. Top stories Swipe. Select.

These cases included contraband cigarettes and vapes. Sergeant Muhammad Shahrul Alqaff Mohammad Juri conducting a vehicle check at Woodlands Checkpoint on Aug 4. Enforcement measures have been stepped up in the wake of an increase in foiled contraband smuggling attempts. ST PHOTO: LIM YAOHUI In an April 4 post on Facebook, ICA said it detected a total of 308 cases involving vapes at Singapore's air, land and sea checkpoints in 2024. Vehicles that require closer inspections are usually those that have nervous-looking drivers or passengers, or vehicles that appear to be heavily loaded despite having only a driver. Checkpoint Inspector 2 Dayangku, 32, said: 'For smaller quantities, people (smugglers) tend to be more anxious, and they would be hiding the stuff (vapes) in the car, for example, under the floor mats. 'For syndicates, the way of concealment will be more sophisticated... the cars will be modified to conceal the contraband.' In recent cases, syndicates have hidden vapes in a car's spare tyre well, a prime mover's cabin and disguised boxes of vapes with a consignment of foodstuff in a delivery van. From January 2024 to March 2025, the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) seized $41 million worth of vapes – nearly fivefold the reported value of vapes seized from 2019 to end-2023, according to numbers compiled by ST. Incoming lorries and buses must go through the Radiographic Scanning Portal. If anomalies are detected by ICA's image analysts, its officers will perform enhanced checks.

On July 29, 2,400 units of vapes and components were found on a lorry entering Singapore at Tuas Checkpoint. More than 5,900 units of e-vaporisers were found in a car entering Singapore at Woodlands Checkpoint on July 24. In a Facebook post on Aug 5, the ICA said it foiled the smuggling attempt made via a Malaysia-registered car. Besides the vapes, enhanced checks on the car also uncovered related components and 150 cartons of heatsticks (heat-not-burn tobacco) hidden in various compartments such as under passenger seats, side panels in the boot and the car bonnet.

Recently smuggling syndicates have hidden vapes in places such as a prime mover's cabin and disguised boxes of vapes with a consignment of foodstuff in a van. ST PHOTO: LIM YAOHUI On July 8, ICA officers at Woodlands Checkpoint scanned a bus and found over 3,800 e-vaporisers and components concealed in the luggage compartment. On June 27, ICA officers at Woodlands Checkpoint thwarted two attempts to smuggle vape products into Singapore in two Malaysia-registered cars. They found over 3,600 e-vaporiser products hidden in the vehicles' compartments. The cases have been referred to the HSA. Besides the officers' intuition, tip-offs or collaboration with other law enforcement agencies, and information from ICA's Integrated Targeting Centre also help in countering smuggling attempts. Deputy Superintendent Ivan Koo Mun Hon, assistant commander of Woodlands Checkpoint, said ICA adopts a multi-pronged approach to tackle the smuggling of contraband like vapes. Deputy Superintendent Ivan Koo Mun Hon told media that ICA adopts a multi-pronged approach in tackling smuggling. ST PHOTO: LIM YAOHUI Checkpoint Inspector Dayangku said: 'I am proud of my team... for successfully detecting and stopping these smugglers at the checkpoint. 'As ICA officers, it is our duty to prevent harmful contraband like e-vaporisers from entering and circulating in Singapore.' Members of the public can report vaping offences to the Tobacco Regulation Branch by calling 6684-2036 or 6684-2037 from 9am to 9pm daily, or online at Under current laws, possessing, using or buying vapes carries a maximum fine of $2,000. Anyone who distributes, imports or sells vapes and their components can be jailed for up to six months and fined up to $10,000. Those found in possession of or using pods containing etomidate can be jailed for up to two years and fined up to $10,000. If you need help to quit vaping, you can join the Health Promotion Board's I Quit programme by calling the QuitLine on 1800-438-2000.

Moscow-appointed officials say five dead in Ukrainian attack on Russian-held Luhansk region
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox A Ukrainian attack on municipal workers in Russian-held Luhansk region killed five people on Tuesday, Russia-appointed officials in the region said. Leonid Pasechnik, the Russia-appointed head of the region, wrote on Telegram that four workers trying to maintain water supplies in the city of Svatove had been killed in the strike. The head of the region's health service, quoted by Russia's state-run TASS news agency, later said a worker wounded in the strike had died in hospital. Luhansk is one of four Ukrainian regions that Russia annexed in 2022 -- along with Donetsk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia -- seven months after launching its full-scale invasion of its smaller neighbour. Moscow said in June it had secured control over the entirety of Luhansk region. It holds parts of the other three. REUTERS
