Customs & Packing

E-cigarettes and heated tobacco

Do not bring e-cigarettes or unapproved heated tobacco purchased abroad.

Travel question: E-cigarettes and heated tobacco

A blanket ban on every heated-tobacco product is outdated. Approved products bought at Taiwan domestic duty-free stores have conditional allowances.

Why is this rule in place?

Approval depends on the product and its source, not merely its brand.

What should travelers do?

Do not assume overseas IQOS sticks qualify. Ask Customs about the exact product, device and components before travel.

Examples & Details

Vapes, liquids, cartridges, heated tobacco, IQOS
