New Zealand became the world's first country to ban smoking for future generations.
The country’s Parliament passed an anti-smoking bill that bans the sale of tobacco to anyone born on or after 1 January 2009.
The new law states that anyone who is born after 2008 will not be able to buy a packet of cigarettes or tobacco products.
40-year-olds won't be allowed to purchase cigarettes in 2050.
Only Bhutan, which banned the sale of cigarettes in 2010, has strict anti-smoking laws.
