Moving to Bangkok

Hi all,

Im moving to Bangkok next week with my family. I have been vaping for a while and have heard mixed reviews firstly about the legality of vaping in Thailand and also the availability of good juice etc.

I currently mix my own liquid, im debating whether i should mix a large batch and just pack it in my checked luggage and then try to find a juice supplier when i get their and settled in, and carry my mod in my hand luggage along with a couple of new sealed batteries i have just brought and some replacement coils (x 2 packs).

The question is will i be ok to get through customs with this...

Thanks in advance and apologies if i have posted this in the wrong section

 

I haven't come in to Thailand by plane for a while now so can't help you with the luggage bit, but basically vaping gear is illegal in Thailand to import or sell and there is doubt that it is legal to possess it either. Latest is that posessepion if vape gear is prohibited though.

There are no actual B&M shops here. You will find online vendors around and on here. Juice makers are few and far between but there are some and there are more going to DIY all the time. However getting nicotine in Thailand is nearly if not impossible and so you come back to importing it and so the circle goes round. Lol

There are some useful threads about all this on the forum but difficult for me to link you on the comp I am using atm. Others will provide the links I am sure,

Welcome to the forum.

 

Thanks for the reply,

Yeah im really not sure what the best thing to do is! really dont want to have to smoke cigs

 

Ok thanks,

I will break my mod down and pack in my checked luggage. Should i do the same with Ejuice.I know you can only carry on 100ml in Hand bagage anyway?

 

And you could label the juice as hair treatment if you are almost ball headed like me or insect treatment shampoo for your pet's if you have any. You get what i suggest i hope. Good luck.

Just send it

 

@finnad

I think the total capacity is 1000ml (1 litre) in hand luggage, with a maximum of 100ml for each bottle...

 

I'd refill it in well cleaned bottles of other liquids, such as fruit juice or such. The bottle(s) then in a ziplock or tape with a grafting tape. Check-in.

 

I'm a Thai native and do international travel all the time.
Here are some tips
As with all airlines, mod should be carried on, along with batteries.
Liquid, up to 100 ml. in clear sealed plastic bag, zip lock if possible. They don't count the amount inside but the comtainers themselves.
As for laws, you CANNOT import, sell or advertise or give service any and all vape gears
but ...
there is no law "yet" about vaping .... so, not illegal to vape unless you vape in a no-smoking area.
Now, be careful,
with e juice, if you bring in quite "some" amount, the custom at the airport might confiscate all, happened to me once (over 50 bottles of "labeled" liquids. Yeah, quite a few more to say they're for personal use as 20 bottles are 100 ml. and 30+ bottles are same brand in a few flavors but they look the same.
On to the next inquiry ...
Don't worry too much about getting a decent juice (or liquid), we have lots of sites selling various kinds of import liquids from all over the world. Prices vary. PM me if you really can't find and I'll be glad to point you in the right direction. And no, I don't sell any, just glad to help fellow vapers.
Thai liquids had come a long way and some of them are actually not that bad.
Last but not least, you can find places that sell vg, pg, nic, flavors, etc. if you're into DIY. Again, pm me if need help.
'nuff said.
Bon voyage and good luck.

Also, IF bringing in EJuice, I would recommend, removing the label from the bottle...

Some bottles have a skull & cross-bones logo, which is a no-no....
