Compare this activity in other countries
This makes the rule page useful for comparison without creating a second data source.
Argentina
ANMAT says electronic cigarettes are prohibited for importation, distribution and commercialization in Argentina. Bringing vapes into Argentina should therefore not be treated as permitted ordinary import.
Australia
Australia allows only a narrow travellers exemption for small quantities of therapeutic vapes and otherwise treats vaping goods as prohibited imports without prior permission.
Austria
Austria does not treat every traveller vape import the same way. Customs rules, value allowances and youth tobacco rules can all matter depending on the product and traveller.
Bahrain
Bahrain Customs includes electronic cigarettes and related nicotine products in its duty-free passenger allowance framework. Bringing vapes or e-liquid beyond that framework should not be treated as unrestricted entry.

Why the page is intentionally light
The new site should show a stable layout, a stable route, and clear source slots before the dataset is scaled up again. That keeps management simple and makes later official-source population safer.
