Buying e-cigarettes and refills when travelling abroad

When returning home from a trip abroad, you may, once you are 18, bring in e-cigarettes and refills for private use. The quantity you can bring in without paying customs duty or taxes depends on whether it contains nicotine and if you buy the goods in another EU country or in a country outside the EU.

The goods you buy on your trip must be for your own personal use. You must also transport (carry) the goods yourself.
