ULPT Request: Taking my THC vape pens from USA to UK

[-]

YouArentReallyThere@reddit

I’ve lived in the UK for better than a dozen years…here’s what’s going to happen:

Your vape pens will be noted and a polite customs agent from HMCE will swab them, run the swab through a mass spectrometer and notice it alert to the presence of THC. They will conduct an interview (at their leisure) revoke your visa and plonk your butt onto the first thing smoking back across the pond. You may be afforded the opportunity to call the person waiting for you in the exit hall. Or not. You’ll be added to a forever list with a 5-year ban on travel to the UK and any territories of The Crown (including Canada)

Leave your gear at home. There’s plenty of cannabis (and cannabis friendly people) throughout Europe.

Hey all,

My wife and I are heading to St. Lucia for our honeymoon next month, flying out of JFK. Just curious—has anyone brought a weed pen there before?

I’ve got a CT Pharma pen with screw-on carts. No issues flying with it domestically—I usually keep the pen in my carry-on and toss the cartridge in my toiletry bag.

Anyone have experience flying with one specifically to St. Lucia? Wondering if it’s chill or if I should just leave it at home.

Appreciate any advice!

Embarrassed-Fill-535@reddit

Coming to London tomorrow and need a vape connect. Don’t want to fly w my disposable

[-]

Holymolyno@reddit

Yes

[-]

butchie-boo@reddit

I did it at age 16 from USA to UK😅unscrew the cartridge and wrap it in a sock and put it right at bottom of your suitcase and put the battery in your carry on- I did this and had 0 issues even after they searched my carry on.

[-]

Alternative-Relief35@reddit

I have done it do many times with no issue.

[-]

Exciting_Relative530@reddit

Carry on bag only! Customs is where you’ll be taking any risk - rip off any THC or signs that make the vapes indiscernible from a nicotine vape… never crossed into the UK with vapes but Canada /USA was pretty chill.

Remember the most important rule of all: Only commit one crime at a time!

[-]

sheetpanchicky@reddit

I suggest mixing edibles in with similar looking items, mints for example. Flower or vape pens seem riskier.

[-]

AMP121212@reddit

Yeah, don't break the law while you're breaking the law.

[-]

Jumpy-Ad6470@reddit

\^this

TSA generally doesn't care. Customs you're playing by UK rules.

Carry on.

[-]

Allison1ndrlnd@reddit

If your spending a few months there why not take a lil train trip to Amsterdam, but like scare all the babies you come across

[-]

rustyicon@reddit

Where in Amsterdam do they sell the vapes?

[-]

Allison1ndrlnd@reddit

Downtown

[-]

rustyicon@reddit

Bru wtf does downtown mean. Have you ever seen a Dutch city

Medical THC is legal with a prescription from this ( other clinics are available) clinic in the UK. Take a look at the requirements, and have things ready when you arrive.

[-]

mingemopolitan@reddit

From the NHS England website: Private prescriptions from outside the UK will not be permissible as the law indicates that prescribing of cannabis-based products for medicinal use is restricted to clinicians on the General Medical Council’s Specialist Register.

[-]

Nippyweesweetie@reddit

Aww that's a shame 😕

[-]

dancing-donut@reddit

Collect all the salt and sugar sachets on the plane, dump them into a ziplock bag, hide the vapes in there and strap it to your chest using duct tape, you’ll be fine, they’ll never notice

[-]

karelinstyle@reddit

Get "the merchant of death" re-jailed so he can be released in case u get caught

[-]

iButtflap@reddit

had to check to see if i was on nba circlejerk for a sec

[-]

JimmyBallocks@reddit

You should hold them in your hand, march right up to the immigration officials when you arrive in the UK and say "hello I have these THC vapes on me which are illegal in your country but it's ok if I bring them in right?"

[-]

Aj-Adman@reddit

British police legally can’t arrest you if you just say no

[-]

jonzilla5000@reddit

Close, but what actually works is to take a big rip and blow it right in the agent's face. Before he has a chance to bounce you out the drug takes hold and then he'll be all like, "No problem mon, have an irie day!"

[-]

Xaq_Man@reddit

mail it ahead of time

[-]

damnkidzgetoffmylawn@reddit

Use Usps- This is the way

[-]

sixwax@reddit

USPS shipment is handed off to local/notional National delivery services once it's through Customs, so...

[-]

damnkidzgetoffmylawn@reddit

True but customs is the hard part

[-]

dirigo1820@reddit

USPS is federal, not sure I'd want to get busted by them.

[-]

cant_pass_CAPTCHA@reddit

Being federal, my understanding is they actually need a search warrant, whereas with UPS or FedEx you sign your rights away under their TOS

[-]

damnkidzgetoffmylawn@reddit

Ups and other private shippers try harder to catch this sort of thing, they have detection teams and more personnel.

[-]

dirigo1820@reddit

I’ll be damned. Learn something new every day.

[-]

Gogglesed@reddit

Do you like to gamble? You might be lucky. Do you hate gambling? You'll probably get caught.

Put em in your prison wallet

[-]

Keister them

[-]

the_third_lebowski@reddit

You'll probably be fine. The consequences of you're unlucky can be really bad. You should absolutely just not do this at all.

[-]

Famous_Actuary5621@reddit

Just putting your checked bag. No one is looking for that.

[-]

BiggusDickus-@reddit

You don't legally own THC vape pens. They are illegal under federal law.

[-]

Hanamii-@reddit

Bro really came on here just to comment that lol

[-]

spicyhotnoodle@reddit

Put it in your carry on. If you are worried then put them in there with some snacks or something. They won’t notice

[-]

LivinMyAuthenticLife@reddit

Just buy thc capsules/tablets and put them in a medicine bottle

[-]

Change_contract@reddit

Just visit your doctors office and get a medical statement

[-]

Muttywango@reddit

If you were to bring them you should also bring your prescription. If they're recreational, don't bring them unless you're willing to risk imprisonment and deportation.

[-]

la_croix_bong_water@reddit

TSA doesn’t care, but when you land in the UK you’ll have to go through their customs. Your mileage will vary with that

[-]

Obvious-Release-5605@reddit

Wrong sub mate this is the unethical sub not the illegal.

Only solution is to carry it up your prison pocket.
