There's no statewide smoking bans in Alabama, however the 2003 statewide Clean Indoor Air Act generally prohibits smoking in public places and public meeting unless a smoking area is designated in those places and must be enclosed and well ventilated. Warning signs must be posted appropriately for the public to see.
