Good idea on the torchlight.     

BTW, i wonder why ppl brought their whole collection on board. Those tanks and mods will make it sounds fishy.

I dunno, coz some people don't trust check in luggage lol?

Myself I don't actually check in my mods/tanks lol, only my batteries and mods that have built in batts (including my "Airport Burner" aka my travel vape) to comply with ICAO's little battery paranoia.

I only check in my e-juice (Normally 2 bottles) and some wicks. So far no problem. 

sup guys!

Just wanna send my gratitude and regards to all the sifus here.
After vaping for about, I'm not really an addict but it really did helped me stop smoking (even though I still smoke occasionally when needed).
Best thing about that, I can stop vaping any time I want without have the urge for nicotine!

Anyway, I'm trying to get a set of beginner vape for a friend in India as a Christmas gift. Met him at Shanghai and he's in love with vaping after trying it.

Any ideas here? He's not a heavy smoker.

See above for edit. Dunno how I got carry on and checked in mixed up lol.

But yeah, I only carry on anything with a Li-ion cell. Everything else goes into the belly of the beast and I haven't had trouble so far.

Oh, there are folks who travel without any check in luggage too, don't forget those. In their case mana ada choice?

Err how latest is this? Coz as per around August 2017 the allowance is still 120mls MAX of personal use Nic Liquid IINM according to the Kanto Shinetsu Health Bureau, as per below:
Of course anything more than that will run the risk of being treated as "for commercial uses" and might just be confiscated.

Also, if you catch a JP Customs Official in a bad mood they'll probably just take the stuff anyway (or at least make it hard for you) even if it's within the limits given. Because Customs lol...

... despite the fact that Nic isn't even under their jurisdiction... Like us, Nic-related matters are under the JP MOH, with enforcement being subbed to the various regional Health Bereaus under them.

But yeah, care to share sos if you have more recent news? Coz if it's true than I'll prolly need to up my Han Solo techniques for my next flight over in a few weeks. Haven't seen anything pop up on my normal JP news sources, though I can be wrong.

Oh, and it's true that Liquid SOLD in Japan has been bound to the Zero Nic rule for quite a while already, due to the whole "commercial use Nic prohibition" thing... though if you're good with the staff, some JP shops DO have some nic stashed away to mix into your juice with.

it was as per 6th Nov 2017 when my client flew to Kyoto and brought along 2 bottles of his favorite eliqiuds (both 3mg by 60ml) and immediately confiscated at Customs check with the reason given "ONLY ZERO NIC ALLOWED". Then he went berserk texting me to look for vape shop info and get the same USA eliquids in Kyoto lol

hmm. last month i brought 60ml of ejuice onboard (6mg) while on my business trip to shanghai and it seems fine.

Not on our side bro, on the arrival side. Which also means that  China is still a-ok for juice, though nowadays it's pretty much luck for then anything pun lol.

I mean, on one hand we have someone going into Thailand and getting their mod confiscated... and yet on the other hand we see some other bloke passing Thai custom fine with their vape stuff lol.

It's pretty much a roulette nowadays lol.

I vape while "banking" myself. Only issue is by the time I finish "banking", the toilet at home will usually be a solid block of vapour lol.

Sounds like customs official bad mood lol. Like I said, they actually have no jurisdiction over nic juice TBH. But really, if they say cannot then how lor also? We argue also cannot win liao lor, they deny entry later bungkus.

jvjh666 I vape while "banking" myself. Only issue is by the time I finish "banking", the toilet at home will usually be a solid block of vapour lol.

Haven't had the urge to cig while "banking" for a loooooong while now.

Of course, in pub toilets I stealth ler, manatau got smoke detector later bungkus liao lor.

Ahahaha nice....but for me i never get the same feel if i take a dump if i "VOOP". and also 1 of the main reason is i dont wanna risk my mod getting wet accidently.
Well i seldom use pub toilet for dump but if i do i would stealth voop as well lah haha.

I'll be in Osaka all December up to Xmas day itself bro. When you coming?

If we can find overlap time gotta do a LYN JP Vapemeet for sure lol. Need to find a nice quaint smoke friendly cafe or something first ler, but Japan being Japan, sure not gonna be THAT hard.
