Shipping to Ireland
We ship selected Vapour Central products from our Essex stores to customers in the Republic of Ireland using tracked services. This page explains how shipping to Ireland works, typical delivery times and what to expect with customs and import charges.
🇮🇪 Where we ship
This page covers orders to the Republic of Ireland. Northern Ireland is treated as UK shipping and follows our standard UK delivery options.
📦 Tracked delivery
Orders to Ireland are sent using tracked services only. You will receive a tracking link once your order is dispatched so you can follow its progress.
💷 Taxes & duties
Irish customs may charge import VAT or handling fees when your parcel enters the country. These charges are set by Irish authorities and are your responsibility to pay.
Shipping options for Ireland
We currently offer tracked shipping to the Republic of Ireland using recognised carriers. Exact prices may vary depending on order weight, value and any promotions running at the time you order.
Standard tracked delivery
Example: Royal Mail International Tracked / similar service
Our standard option for orders to Ireland. Once dispatched, most parcels arrive within approximately 5–10 working days, depending on customs processing and local delivery.
- Full end-to-end tracking where available.
- Signature or delivery confirmation in most areas.
- Best balance of cost and reliability.
Delivery times are estimates, not guarantees. Customs checks or local delays can extend this.
Courier delivery (where available)
Example: DPD / similar road courier service
For some Irish postcodes and basket values we may offer courier delivery at checkout. This can be faster and may give more detailed tracking updates.
- Door-to-door courier delivery.
- SMS or email updates where supported.
- Useful for larger or higher value orders.
If courier delivery is available for your address and order, it will appear automatically at checkout.
If you do not see an Irish shipping option at checkout, or your basket contains items that cannot currently be shipped to Ireland, you can contact us and we will advise on alternatives.
Customs, VAT and import charges
Because Ireland is outside the UK, your order will pass through Irish customs. They may apply local taxes and handling fees when the parcel enters the country.
- You may be asked to pay import VAT and/or a customs handling fee by the carrier before your parcel is delivered.
- These charges are set by Irish authorities and are not controlled by Vapour Central.
- If you choose not to pay any import charges and the parcel is returned to us, we will refund the cost of the products once they arrive back in resellable condition, but any original and return shipping costs may not be refundable.
We complete customs paperwork honestly and clearly. We cannot under-declare the value of your order or mark it as a “gift”.
Products we can ship to Ireland
Our aim is to offer a similar experience to our UK customers while respecting Irish rules on nicotine and related products. In general we can ship:
- Vape kits, tanks and coils (where permitted by the carrier).
- TPD-compliant e liquid and nic salts within legal limits.
- Nicotine pouches and other alternative nicotine products that meet current regulations.
- Non-nicotine lifestyle products and accessories that are not restricted.
Some items may be restricted or not available for Irish delivery due to carrier rules, battery limits or local regulations. If an item in your basket cannot be shipped to Ireland it may block Irish shipping options at checkout.
We do not ship tobacco, CBD products or anything that falls outside our normal product categories.
Age verification and responsible sales
Vapour Central only sells to customers who are 18 or over. This applies to UK and Irish orders.
- You must confirm that you are 18+ when ordering from our website.
- Our payment providers and delivery partners may carry out age-related checks as part of their own compliance processes.
- We reserve the right to cancel and refund orders if we believe they are being placed on behalf of someone under 18.
Nicotine products are intended for existing adult smokers and nicotine users. They are not risk free.
Ordering tips for Irish customers
Check your address details
Make sure your Irish address is complete and accurate, including county and correct Eircode where possible. This helps reduce delays and misroutes.
- Use your full name as it appears on ID or delivery information.
- Include a contact phone number and email for courier notifications.
- Consider using a work address if you are rarely home during the day.
Plan ahead
Allow extra time for customs and cross-border processing, especially during peak seasons or public holidays.
- Order before you are completely out of supplies.
- Check tracking regularly for any attempted deliveries or payment requests from the carrier.
- Contact us if tracking has not updated for a reasonable period and you are concerned.
FAQ – Shipping to Ireland
Do you ship to the Republic of Ireland?
Yes. We ship selected vape, nicotine pouch and lifestyle products from our UK stores to the Republic of Ireland using tracked services. Availability may vary depending on the products in your basket.
Do you ship to Northern Ireland?
Yes. Northern Ireland is treated as part of the UK for shipping, so standard UK delivery options apply instead of the international options on this page.
How long does delivery to Ireland take?
Once dispatched, most parcels reach Ireland within around 5–10 working days, depending on customs and local delivery. This is an estimate, not a guarantee, and busy periods can take longer.
Will I have to pay customs or import charges?
You may be asked to pay import VAT and a handling fee by the carrier before delivery. These charges are set by Irish customs and are your responsibility. We cannot control or waive them.
What happens if my parcel is returned from Ireland?
If a parcel is returned to us because it was not collected, import charges were refused or the address was incomplete, we will refund the product cost once it arrives back in good condition. Original and return shipping costs may not be refundable.
Can I order if I am under 18?
No. Our products are for adults only. You must be 18 or over to order from Vapour Central, and we reserve the right to cancel orders if we believe this is not the case.
