Frequently Asked Questions (For Travelers)

1. Are poppers legal in Vietnam?

• Yes, they are. Poppers (Alkyl Nitrites) are not on the list of illegal narcotics defined by Vietnam's law (Decree 57/2022/NĐ-CP). They are classified as industrial chemicals, not medicine. This means they are legal to possess, but you must purchase them from a specialized, verified retailer, not a public pharmacy.

2. Can I bring my poppers on the plane?

• We STRONGLY advise against this. Most airlines and international customs (including Vietnam's) classify poppers as flammable liquids, which are prohibited in both checked and carry-on luggage. It is much safer and easier to purchase them from a verified source after you arrive.

3. What are the fakes in Vietnam like?

• Fakes are a serious problem, often sold by street vendors (like in Bui Vien). They are typically mystery industrial solvents that cause severe headaches. The easiest way for a traveler to avoid them is to never buy from an anonymous seller. Always look for a verifiable business with physical, mapped store locations.
