Hey all!

Just wondering, I know we can't really order online for new helmets as customs will flag them and we have to get relevant permits etc. What about if we buy a helmet abroad and check it in? Anyone experience this here?

Just dont bring in a "new" helmet.

I think if your helmet has at least ECE rating you should be golden right?

Dont tell me I take my helmet to Thailand for a rent and ride then fly back cannot pass through customs meh? My Rhpa 70 bought locally also dont have sirim.

Thats what Im thinking.. What if I buy a new helmet in Thailand, remove the boxes and come back declaring it as my own used helmet 🤔?

Done it before. Brought back my Shoei in my luggage.

Another easier option is Singapore. Ride in old, ride back new.

Oh! Without the boxes and all, brought back only your helmet?

Dispose all the boxes. Just brought back the helmet and all its accessories and the soft carrying bag. Box all left it in Japan.

Awesome! Might try this instead since there's no possible way for them to prove that it's new 😅
