1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    Hi all

    As stated in my title, from SA. I will be visiting your beautiful country next week and wanted to find out if there are any vape stores close to Rawaii Palm Beach Resort?

    See the FAQ's. There are no B&M vape shops in Thailand since the ban at the end of 2014 on the import/sale of gear & juice. And, vaping in public is not legal either...if you're caught by the police, you risk a hefty fine and losing your mod...or worse. Be forewarned...and be very discreet.

    Are you serious?

    So even if I order and have it delivered to the hotel and not use it is illegal?

    That sucks big time....

    I'm very serious...this place is not vape friendly in the slightest! If you order from a local supplier, it will arrive at the hotel without any trouble...so far, there have been no issues with that.

    And you should have no problems vaping in your hotel room. If there are going to be problems, they would arise when you're out in public. There are several links in the FAQ's and a recent thread about a member whose mod was taken at a army/police checkpoint in Phuket and he was threatened with deportation.

    I know I won't be using htethe device as it will remain in the hotel room. It's just expensive in South Africa to purchase compared to that side.

    Are you able to pm me the faq please. I am trying to find it on my phone but no luck.

    Hello. Welcome to TV.:welcome:
    If you want to see the beautiful country, you'll be fine vaping anywhere. But if you want a proper blokes fun holiday in Pattaya, Phuket or Bangkok, take SD's advice seriously
