Ordering Flavors to Australia from the US
submitted about 8 years ago by michoakl1996

Hey guys! I've been lurking here for a while and the more I read the more I'm interested in DIYing my own juice. The problem is that I live in Lebanon and customs here are assholes concerning vaping.

So, I was thinking of ordering flavors to my friend in Australia who will be coming to Lebanon during Christmas. I just wanted to know if any of you have experience with ordering flavors from the US to Australia and if customs have given you trouble in the past.

Also for those who have, what website has the best price overall (flavors + shipping)? I've checked gremlindiy, nicotineriver, and ecigeexpress. I found gremlin to be the cheapest.

I've never had customs issues ordering flavours to Australia, nicotine can be tricky depending on the state.

Your best bet might be to order from an Australian vendor. My recommendation is vapoureyes.

I only use 0mg liquid so nicotine wouldn't be an issue. I think ordering from the US would be cheaper even considering the shipping charges.

Yep it is much cheaper. I came to that conclusion not long ago. I'm going to make my first order from bullcityflavours

Each state in Australia has different laws about importing nicotine (e-liquid). Depending on the state depends on whether or not its legal. Most states allow you to import it but it's illegal to do so in QLD -and in NT you need a permit. More info here: http://www.ozvapour.com/are-electronic-cigarettes-legal-in-australia/ :)................. If your friend is intending to stay in Australia for some time they may benefit from buying their own unflavoured nicotine at 100mg(10%) strength and adding it to 0mg e-liquid available from vapes shops within Australia. For those who don't want to pay huge prices to import pre-nic'd juices, adding your own nic saves you money and a 200ml bottle can easily last a year costing $45AUD delivered, imported from New Zealand.

It's actually for me. I just want to order my stuff to my friend's address (in NSW) so that he can get the flavorings (only flavorings not e-juice or nicotine) with him to Lebanon. So i guess it would be easy to order the flavors to NSW. Thanks for the help!

Ahhh sorry I mis read that! That will / should not be a problem at all. They are essentially food flavourings and as long as not in massive bottles they won't give a hoot. You could be making lollies for all they know. No dramas at all importing flavourings from USA to Aus! Would just be iffy on customs in Lebanon if they are big quantities(:

Yeah that's a relief. The thing is gremlin doesn't ship to Lebanon and the shipping to AUS is just 22$. NicotineRiver DOES ship to here but shipping is 70+$. So it would definitely be cheaper if I order to my friend in AUS.

Umm I've read the rules of this sub and I didn't think I was breaking any rules. I don't know why the automod ''posted'' here. If I am breaking some rules please let me know guys.

Technically you are, since this is a New Mixers Thread type of question. It’s the first bullet point in the auto mod’s post.

Ah i didn't think this would be considered as a new mixer's question. Sorry for that.

No biggie. You are asking about where to get your supplies. That’s why

Flavours from US to Australia? Shouldn't be a problem. I haven't read anything about anyone having any problems in doing so. I'm about to make my first purchase from a US supplier to me in Australia and I have full confidence that I'll not have a problem.

I surely hope so! I saw your comment above, and that is where I'll probably put in my order. Bullcity seems to have the best prices!
