Post new topic

I was wondering if they are legal in Mauritius(Don't want any trouble with my next visit)?

Just want to know from the folks that live in Mauritius (online searches seem conflicting).

Kind regards

As far as I know the electronic cigarettes are illegal but the vaporizers are legal.
I know this from a friend that ordered a vaporizer on the internet and had to get it released at the airport cause they were sure it was an electronic cigarette and were giving him a hard time.
An article I found about this (in French unfortunately) http://www.lexpress.mu/node/90515

Electronic cigarettes are not legal as regards their sale.  You can freely enjoy them.
I've got more than a dozen, brought to me by clients.  You can smoke but cannot buy in Mauritius.
