Electronic cigarette?

Uh…

Sometimes, you’re in this situation. You’re about to go on holiday, and you just don’t know whether you should be bringing your electronic cigarette or not. If you don’t, then you’re going to be without it in a country that is potentially absolutely fine with the idea. If you do, you could wind up in prison.

Understandably, no one is particularly thrilled about the idea of imprisonment in a foreign country that they don’t necessarily understand the legal system for, which is why it’s very important to do the correct preparation before you go anywhere on holiday with your electronic cigarette. Let’s get right into it.

Research, Planning and Prep Work

Okay, here’s the truth. If you are going to go on holiday with an electronic cigarette, whether it’s this year or in a year, you have to do your research before you leave the house.

Contrary to what some people believe, there is no global set of rules surrounding electronic cigarettes. Every country has their own stance on them, their own legal system to deal with them, and their own sanctions for anyone caught breaking these rules.

Sometimes you get nothing more than a slap on the rest and your device confiscated, but other times you will literally be thrown into prison for having an electronic cigarette in a country where you shouldn’t. It’s not great, which means you need to be careful.

Preparing For the Journey

So, if you have found a location which is going to be hospitable for your electronic cigarette habit, the next step is to make sure that you have prepared for the journey properly. The best way that we can recommend you do this is to research ahead of time exactly what kind of conditions you’re going to be running into, and also to consider your choice of device.

It’s probably quite a good idea to bring something which is small and discreet, something that you can use quite comfortably without having to lug around a lot of kit. It’s not ideal, but it does mean that if your primary device is not with you, it can’t be damaged or stolen, and you also have something that’s a little bit easier to charge and take with you if you’re going to be on the go all day.

So, in conclusion, prep work is pretty much essential for anybody who is trying to get ready for a holiday. You have to research these things, the government has a lot of reading materials you could take a glance at, but just be aware of what the laws are. There is nothing more horrifying than the prospect of being arrested and thrown into prison in a foreign country when you don’t understand the legal system because you brought your electronic cigarette with you.
