Hi, please I need some help! First, I am Ahmad from Egypt, and probably some of u heard about customs and regulations concerning the prohibition of importing e-juice, but the vaping community here got the idea of getting the liquid and passing through the customs if it just plastic bottles with no label or if there is any other label that just write the name of the flavor and the company without writing (tobacco, nicotine, etc.)
So my first question. Any of you guys know a supplier of e-liquid who do this? Or can do this as per request?
the second one. I saw pics of flux nectar bottles by [FONT=arial, helvetica, bitstream vera sans, clean, sans-serif]Gotvapes (just the front of it) and there was no mentioning of nicotine or tobacco on it. do u know if there is a label or a warring on its back?
[/FONT]Thanks. ur contributions are highly appreciated

Strange how they let you smoke cigarettes and other tobacco products but not buy e-liquid. Or is the restriction strictly on importing? What is the reason given for the restriction (assuming there is one)?


For their international shipping, Heather's Heavenly Vapes sends bottles with no reference to tobacco or nicotine on the bottles, and the packing label and packing slip says 'aroma oils'.

Most Western European countries don't have legislation restricting imports of e-liquid, but I understand some other larger Western nations such as Canada and Australia have restricted sales and imports of e-liquids containing nicotine, so this is a welcome initiative on HHV's part that will assure that their customers all over the world will not have their juices seized by local customs.

We think the reason here has to do with big bribes from tobacco companies. Especially that there are some legal and authorized outlets that sell only one kind of e-cig and its liquid, and which are very expensive comparing buying from abroad. And u know what, I can import alcohol and not e-liquid! Irony!!!

They also request (customs) that if we want to buy e-liquid that we submit a sample of it to be tested and then approved and then we can have some kind of authorization everytime we buy it, and which of course will take ages and ages! Pure bureaucracy
