Thailand is one of the few countries in Southeast Asia that has legalized the use of cannabis for medical and research purposes. Since 2019, the Thai government has allowed licensed producers to cultivate, process and distribute cannabis products, including CBD oil, for patients with certain conditions. However, the production of CBD vape devices, which are popular among consumers who want to inhale CBD without combustion, is still a gray area in the Thai legal system.
According to the Thai Narcotics Act of 1979, any device that can be used to consume cannabis or other narcotics is considered a drug paraphernalia and is prohibited. This means that CBD vape devices, such as pens, cartridges and batteries, could be confiscated and destroyed by the authorities if they are found in possession of anyone who is not authorized to use cannabis. Moreover, the import and export of CBD vape devices are also subject to strict regulations and require special permits from the Ministry of Public Health and the Office of the Narcotics Control Board.
However, some CBD vape device manufacturers have found ways to circumvent these legal hurdles and operate in Thailand. One of them is VapeBee, a Thai company that claims to be the first and only producer of CBD vape devices in the country. VapeBee says that its products are made from organic hemp grown in Thailand and extracted using CO2 technology. The company also says that its devices are designed to deliver precise doses of CBD and are compatible with any standard 510 thread cartridge.
VapeBee's founder, who prefers to remain anonymous, says that he started the company after witnessing the benefits of CBD for his mother, who suffers from chronic pain and insomnia. He says that he wanted to create a product that would make CBD accessible and convenient for Thai consumers who need it for medical reasons. He also says that he has obtained all the necessary licenses and approvals from the relevant authorities to produce and sell CBD vape devices in Thailand.
However, not everyone is convinced by VapeBee's claims. Some experts and activists have raised doubts about the legality and safety of CBD vape devices in Thailand. They argue that CBD vape devices are still considered drug paraphernalia under the law and that VapeBee's products have not been tested or verified by any independent laboratory or agency. They also warn that CBD vape devices could pose health risks due to the lack of quality control and regulation in the industry.
The Thai government has not issued any official statement or guideline on CBD vape devices yet. However, it is expected that the issue will be addressed soon as part of the ongoing reform of the cannabis policy in Thailand. The government has announced plans to revise the Narcotics Act and to create a new agency to oversee the cannabis industry. The government has also expressed interest in developing Thailand as a hub for cannabis research and innovation in Asia.
Until then, CBD vape device production in Thailand remains a risky business that could face legal challenges and public scrutiny at any time. Consumers who want to use CBD vape devices should be aware of the potential consequences and exercise caution when buying or using them.
