[conelle]

Hi, I will be heading to Budapest for business.
I can't seem to find in the forum a definite answer with regards to the legality.
Can i know the current vaping law in Budapest? Can I bring in my mech mod into the country and vape in public?

I can't help you on this one, except to say I would try posting in the Europe Forum here.

Good luck with it!

I found this information on E-Cigarette Laws Worldwide

HUNGARY - Partial permission: two-tier system.

October 2013: Hungary introduced the 2-tier system. Products with nicotine are subject to pharmaceutical licensing (i.e. banned), all other products are allowed.

2014-01-08: News received that a Budapest court has overturned the ban on nicotine products.
Update March 10th 2014: The Budapest court allowed nicotine-containing cartridges as a consumer product; fines repaid, confiscated stock returned.

That's the same article I came across. Seems like there is no clear definition on the ban except for cartridges are allowed for sale as consumer goods.
