The range of electronic components we sell are declared with HS codes and descriptions that correctly indicate their category. e.g. Wire, printed circuit board, switches etc

E-cigarette products are declared as ENDS – Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems.

Shipping to The United States

In December 2020 the US government amended the Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking Act (PACT) to prohibit the online sale of e-cigarettes to children. The legislation, effective from 26th Match 2021, expands the definition of e-cigarettes to include electronic “nicotine delivery systems”. As a responsible vendor we must comply with PACT.

Therefore, from Friday 26 March, Stealthvape Ltd will no longer export to the USA any device that, through an aerosolized solution, delivers nicotine, flavour, or any other inhalable substance, including:

E-cigarettes
E-hookahs
E-cigars
Vape pens
Advanced refillable personal vaporizer
Electronic pipes
Drip Tips
Refills / Pods

The electronic components we manufacture and / or supply collectively known as “Mod Parts and “Rebuildable Supplies” are not covered by this legislation and will be shipped as normal.

If you believe our information regarding these restricted countries is in error please get in touch so we can reassess this list.

It is the customers responsibility to research their own countries import law regarding restricted product. This list is to the best of our knowledge correct however Stealthvape accept no responsibility or liability for stopped, seized or destroyed shipments including any administrative charges billed to the customer by their local governmental or customs agencies for importing prohibited goods.
