CeeGee Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 With all the posts about vaping, illegal etc, has anyone any first hand knowledge of anyone actually being arrested for vaping in public. I have seen hundreds of posts(on various forums) but have never seen(or may have missed) anyone say that they or someone they were with were arrested etc. Same for the airport,again has anyone actually been stopped searched and confiscated or fined. I know you cannot buy legally in Thailand but this not about buying, this is farangs using Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nisakiman Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I just this minute had a Viber text message from my daughter (both she and hubby vape) who just arrived in Ao Nang. She said that loads of people were using them in the bars there and nobody seems to be in the slightest bit bothered about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunBENQ Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 It's the usual difference between theory (legal situation) and practical scenario. Legal: simply forbidden, UK foreign office has just recently updated it's travel advice. https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/thailand/local-laws-and-customs Quote You can’t bring vaporisers, eg, e-cigarettes and e-baraku, and refills into Thailand. These items are likely to be confiscated, and you could be fined or sent to prison for up to 10 years if convicted. The sale or supply of e-cigarettes and similar devices is also banned and you could face a heavy fine or up to 5 years imprisonment if found guilty.

Hutch68 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 What an unusual twist! A thread that starts off vaping and ends up dogging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffspab Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) I was stopped and searched near Asoke before Xmas They pulled out my vape, looked at it, asked where i bought it (street seller near soi 5), handed it back and let me on my way. No issue. They're openly selling all the gear at the market stands these days, so whatever the law may be, I'm not sure enforcing it of any real priority for the BiB. EDIT i also went in and out of Swamp last august with some kit, in my carry on. Again, no issue. Edited February 9, 2017 by cliffspab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oval Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Vape away chums. Just keep an eye out for the boys in brown - they might want some tea money. Or a taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
