Taking vape / e-cigarette out of Australia

STATUS · ALLOWED

Vape devices and personal e-cigarette hardware may generally be exported from Australia freely, though many destinations prohibit import.

Details

Vape devices, personal e-cigarette hardware, and nicotine-containing e-liquids are generally free to export from Australia at personal-use quantities. However, many destinations (Thailand, Singapore, Cambodia, Laos, India in commercial quantities, and others) prohibit or heavily restrict vape import — always verify the destination-side rules before travel. Lithium-battery-powered devices should be carried in cabin baggage per IATA DGR (never in checked baggage).
