If you are traveling to Peru and you’re curious about what the vaping scene in Peru is like, then don’t panic because it’s going strong. Whenever vapers are considering traveling to different countries, they’re often left wondering about the legal status of vaporizers and vaping in the country which they are heading to.

Should I take my vaporizer and e-liquid, or should I try and buy something when I land? These are probably the two most common questions vapers are going to ask themselves before they travel, especially if they’re flying.

Flying with your vape

Flying and vaping present its own set of challenges. A lot has changed in the last decade and traveling with your vaporizer, or vape pen isn’t going to raise as many eyebrows as it once would have.

If you take the time to package everything properly before you fly to Peru, you’re not going to have any issues at either the departure airport or the arrival airport. The following are some points to keep in mind when flying with a vaporizer:

Don’t pack your vape in your checked baggage as airlines prohibit batteries in checked baggage.

If you can break down the vaporizer into individual components, remove the batteries, take the atomizer off the battery. This is to prevent the atomizer from accidentally firing in your carry-on baggage.

Pack all your vaporizer components into clear, sealable plastic bags to prevent any e-liquid leaking. As the plane lands and takes off, the e-liquid often leaks out of the tank.

Check what the limits are on liquids before you arrive at the airport and ensure that you don’t try to take a gallon bottle of e-liquid through security in your carry-on luggage.

See? they are not difficult, but you have to be careful and take care of these details. For the most cautious, we recommend preparing a checklist with these instructions and review them, one by one, before starting the trip.

Buying vapes, e-liquids and other supplies while in Peru

If you don’t fancy packing all your vaping equipment or you come up short on supplies when you arrive to Peru, there are several different vape shops, but one of the most convenient for foreign tourists is Apegos.com.pe, where you can buy the necessary vaping equipment without leaving home. They speak Spanish and English, provide immediate delivery in Lima and ship orders throughout Peru.

That’s it. You have to remember that Vape Shops are businesses that comply with the regulations in force in Peru and all their products are perfectly legal. This type of business has increased in our country in the last ten years. Several stores have opened in Lima and in the vast majority of its districts.

Happy vaping and enjoy your trip to Peru!
