Send me a ticket and I'll be your mule.

I've carried more stuff across the border illegal and legal than I care to remember...Ciudad Juarez no less. I was in taxachussets for many years but now live by the border in mountain paradise near Mexico.

There are Mexican members here and my memory says Ecigs were not technically legal there. Is my memory correct?

Flying in and out though I wouldn't think any problem would arise for a vacationer.

I'll be leaving for a well deserved vacation in a few days. Heading down to Playa Del Carmen for a week of sun and fun!! Do I have to worry about eCigs with Mexican Customs? I would like to bring a few 808s, my XHaler and a few bottles of juice.


You should be fine, do not act like your doing anything illegal, because you are not.

I read last month on this forum that e cigs are indeed illegal in Mexico. I don't know how well they enforce though. But if you do happen to be caught, be prepared to buy your way out, they will take a bribe. How much depends on what they think you're worth, I live close to the border also and have visited many times but never with e cigs.
 
I travel to Mexico frequently, and have never had a problem. Granted most of the time I am a uniformed crewmember, but even while on personal vacation I had no issues. Just throw it in your laptop case with some other look alike equipment just in case and you are good to go. Dont sweat it, and enjoy your trip!

Safe Travels,

Just got back from my trip today and had no problems anywhere. I vaped on the plane, the hotel, taxis, the beach and on and on. Had quite a few people come up to me and the wife and ask what we were smoking. All were positive responses. We were both inseparable from our Kr808's all week.

Good to hear that and glad you had a good time!
