Travelling with sex toys can be a bit nerve-wracking, especially when crossing international borders. It's important to keep in mind that laws and regulations regarding sex toys vary from country to country, and what may be legal in one place may be illegal in another.
However, with some careful planning and preparation, it's possible to travel with your sex toys internationally without any issues.
Here are some tips to help make your travels with your sex toys stress-free:
Custom Laws and Regulations
Before you travel, do some research on the laws and regulations regarding sex toys in the country you're visiting. Some countries such as UAE, Saudi and India have declared sex toys illegal. Similarly, other countries might have strict regulations on sex toys, while some have no restrictions at all. It's also important to note that some countries may have different laws for different regions or states. Be sure to check with the specific city or state you're visiting as well.
Â
Keep Your Partner in the Loop
If you're travelling with a partner and plan to bring sex toys, it's important to communicate with them and make sure they're comfortable with it. Discuss which toys you plan to bring, how you plan to pack them, and any concerns either of you may have. This can help to avoid any misunderstandings or discomfort during your travels.
Â
Pack Discreetly
When packing your sex toys, it's important to pack them discreetly to avoid any unwanted attention. It's recommended to pack your toys in a bag or case that is not transparent or labelled with the words "sex toys." You can also wrap your toys in a piece of clothing or a towel to further conceal them. If you're worried about airport security, it's also a good idea to pack your toys in your checked luggage rather than your carry-on.
Â
Select the Right Toy Size
When travelling, it's best to choose toys that are small and easy to pack. Avoid large toys or toys with lots of attachments that may be difficult to conceal. You may also want to consider toys that are rechargeable rather than battery-powered to avoid any issues with customs.
Â
Carry Lubricant Carefully
When travelling, it's important to bring a travel-sized bottle of lubricant with you. It's important to note that some countries may have restrictions on the type of lubricant you can bring with you, so be sure to check before you travel. Also, ensure that your lubricant bottles are tightly packed and there is no possibility of a spill in case of shocks or baggage mishandling during transit.
Â
Choose Non-Vibrating Adult Toys
If you're concerned about travelling with vibrating toys, you may want to consider bringing non-vibrating toys instead. Dildos, butt plugs, and other non-vibrating toys are less likely to cause any issues with security or customs. Be sure to pack them discreetly and follow the same tips for packing and cleaning as you would with vibrating toys.
Â
Be Prepared for Security Checks
When going through airport security, your bags may be searched. It's important to remain calm and cooperative during these checks. If your toys are found, explain that they are personal items and be prepared to answer any questions the security officers may have.
Â
Consider Shipping Your Sex Toys
If you're concerned about travelling with your sex toys, you may want to consider shipping them to your destination instead. This can be a good option if you're travelling to a country with strict laws on sex toys or if you're travelling with large or expensive toys.
Â
Travelling Back To Australia
When travelling back to Australia, you are required to declare any/all items that you are bringing with you, including sex toys. If you fail to declare your sex toys, they may be confiscated or you may be fined.
Travelling with sex toys can be stressful, but with some careful planning and preparation, it's possible to travel with your toys internationally without any issues. Shipping your toys before travelling is also an effective alternative to avoid unwanted hassles during transit.
