Eliquuds

[daveyh]

Hi just a quick question me and the Mrs are off to New York on Friday. I was wondering if your legally allowed to bring eliquids back home to England

[phatfil]

well we are allowed to buy and ship over from the states OK and US vendors are renowned for extreme honesty when to comes to filling out customs declarations with it seems the intent of incurring the maximum vat/duty levy possible..

however if carrying in hand luggage remove any indications of toxicity from bottles, just in case you were to spill some and then rub the co-pilots face in the spill to encourage depression (too soon?? i will get me coat..)

Thanks for your reply but what I really wanted to know if I found a few bottles of juice I liked could I legally stick them in my hold luggage without the fear of being busted Any replys welcome as I've never traveled abroad before

liquids need to go in hand luggage especially for pressure in the hold. not worth the risk.
easier to put a fire out in the cabin than it is in the hold.
no problems taking out from uk as long as in clear plastic bag that has to be put separate going through security control so shouldnt be a problem bringing them back unless youve got wayyy too many bottles.
im bringing some back from Vegas when i go.

I don't see why you can't bring eliquid back with you daveyh , I know a few people who have, they just put it their suitcase, as for the previous poster saying about fires in the hold.......... Not very helpful , I've never heard of eliquid bursting into flames , have you ?

I brought back over a kilo of juices for a friend on here from Boston, put in suitcase, me and my OH's cases were opened and searched, but no problems with the liquids, all arrived here safe and sound.

PS that was only half of them, due to weight had to post other half, mighty expensive, but at least I got to fill out the customs form ahem ahem

afaik ejuice isnt a tobacco product liable for tax and control like tobacco so falls into the catagory of other goods, so as long as your souvenirs etc dont value more than £390 you are not liable for any duty/vat.. www.gov.uk/duty-free-goods/arrivals-from-outside-the-eu

so no trouble.

only posted that as there was an aviation training video posted on one of the vape forums showing what could happen with batteries, pressurized liquids, laptops. the video said exactly what i said above.
having bottles of liquids in a suitcase going through customs especially to america could well trigger alarm bells as we all know how on the ball american customs are.
