Not only are tobacco, tobacco substitutes and tobacco-based products in Class 34 but also articles used by smokers. Articles that could be classified in other classes are in Class 34 because of this special use. Examples of this are ashtrays and lighters for smokers, as well as matches, and wicks adapted for cigarette lighters. However, ashtrays for automobiles are in Cl. 12, along with cigar lighters for automobiles, as both are considered to be specially adapted for use in vehicles.
As well as tobacco products like cigarettes and cigars, Class 34 also includes goods like herbs for smoking and snuff. It is worth noting, however, that tobacco-free cigarettes for medical purposes belong to Cl. 5 on the basis of function.
Electronic cigarettes and oral vaporizers for smokers are also classified in Class 34, along with liquid solutions and flavourings for use therewith. Batteries and chargers for electronic cigarettes are, however, in Cl. 9.
