About Vaping Liquids
Vaping liquids (e-liquids) are subject to both tobacco and liquid transport regulations. For carry-on, each container must be ≤100ml and placed in a clear quart-sized bag. Larger bottles can go in checked luggage. Some countries ban nicotine-containing e-liquids entirely. Store liquids in leak-proof containers and keep them in original packaging with labels showing ingredients and nicotine content.

❓ More Questions
Can I bring nicotine e-liquid to Vietnam?
No. Vietnam bans the import, transport and use of e-cigarettes from 2025, and e-cigarettes are described as including the e-liquid, with or without nicotine; nicotine-containing liquids face stricter scrutiny. Original packaging and airline liquid rules do not exempt e-liquid from the ban, so be prepared for possible confiscation.
How much e-liquid can I carry on a plane?
In carry-on: each container max 100ml, all containers in a 1L clear zip bag (standard airline liquid rules). In checked luggage: no specific limit, but bring reasonable personal amounts. These are airline rules for the flight only, not a Vietnam import allowance: importing e-liquid into Vietnam is prohibited.
Can I buy e-liquid in Vietnam?
Very difficult and risky. E-liquid is not officially sold in Vietnam. Gray-market products exist but quality, authenticity, and safety cannot be guaranteed. Do not bring your own supply instead — importing e-liquid into Vietnam is prohibited.
