Hello there,
Obviously I'm new here I tried to use the Search throughout the forum, but can't find an answer of my question so I'm opening a new enquiry.
Can I transport let's say 100g of Mimosa Hostilis root bark /mhrb/ in the form of chunks into my hand luggage throughout an UK Airport or I'm risking to be in trouble.
Thanks in advance
P.S. It is labelled by the vendor as a Dye Concentrate
 
Hello,

From what I could find on this topic, root bark is not specifically illegal in the UK, but according to the Misuse of Drugs Act from 1971, DMT is a Class A drug, meaning it's strictly illegal. Even though the bark may be labeled as a dye material, if the airport security find it, they might consider the possibility you're carrying it with the intention of extracting the DMT out of it, which could potentially lead to legal issues or the authorities tracking you.

I wouldn't recommend smuggling it through there.
 
Thank you very much for the quick reply indeed; to be honest I'm having a similar feeling in the gut, that's a bit suspicious too, especially into the hand luggage. But I'm still fancy to hear more opinions or if someone ever took the risk to make this step....
 
You also might want to consider that they don't know what plant material you are transporting. Confusion of such things can be very costly. Always think from their POV as well. When walking the line very delicately, it can be risky in and of itself, despite what might technically be legal.

I’ve heard some really unfortunate stories regarding the matter. Authorities do not always do things the right way, have the means to assess properly, or even follow the law lol. They can escalate without cause or misapprehend. I always recommend to try to avoid creating complexity and/or inciting necessary action on the part of authorities. ‘Two degrees removed of illegality’, and aware of social context.

-I have to assume you are flying within the UK, because that’s the only jurisdiction you mentioned…
-Your labeling is probably like that basic tape with words right? No company information etc to give the product context.
-UK… 🚨
-But as always, “there’s only what a man can do, and what a man can’t do”
-Sorry I can’t give you a definitive answer as I do not know much about your area. :) hope you find the thoughts useful though.

I just like playing it safe though, but if you want to gain life experience, then be my guest! 😂🙏

There's a bit of legal precedent, at least regarding the attempted prosecution of MHRB vendors within the UK, but I don't specifcally recall how that turned out, so it would require some research of the legal records. Things have further become complicated since the (vague, unjust and ridiculous) Psychoactive Substances Act came into force. DMT's illegality notwithstanding, if there was any suspicion someone were attempting to import or export any material with the intention that it would be used for a psychoactive effect - outside a small list of exempt materials, notably alcohol, tobacco, nutmeg and religious incense - there would be grounds for bringing charges (i.e. arrest and likely prosecution).

Beyond that, we should also bear in mind the following Nexus attitude rule:
No discussion on selling, buying, sourcing, acquiring, pricing, trading, receiving, distributing, mentioning pending deliveries or smuggling of drugs

This includes all isolated psychedelic compounds and RCs (Research Chemicals), whether they are legal or not. The only goods allowed to be discussed are legal live plants, legal viable seeds (both in the Sustainable plant and seed suppliers subforum) and legal/unwatched chemical supplies. See Street Value of DMT (AND WHY YOU SHOULDN'T EVER SELL DMT AND OTHER PSYCHEDELICS) for good reasons why we don't allow this.

Also please read this thread: Bye bye MHRB sourcing talk, we will remember you

Finally, it would seem sensible to me that, were one planning to transport material with a known use in the 'production of a controlled substance' through a customs checkpoint, it would be wise to avoid posting about it on an internet forum dedicated to the compound in question, so that's one more reason to decide against bringing it with you.

To wit, people who have done this will be exceedingly unlikely to talk about it for 20 years or so.

You're quite right, this information should probably been at the start of my post, rather than the middle:

Thanks to all of you for your time and for the replies. Make srnse to put myself into the shoes of the others … The idea was that I want to share this with my friends from eastern Europe, cause the quality of the bark is good here and [MOD EDIT: Definitely no sourcing talk either!] doesn’t ship to the destination Im going to… thanks once again I will look at the book Mr. Nice

PS they call it drug Im calling it medicine
pps: Thanks for the patience and for the advices I was thinking the same that it is not wise to post a question about this topic in forum, which can bee seen by anyone, but same time I was wondering and tried to look for my question through google, but didn’t find the answer and decided to join here and to ask, the forum was recommended to me by someone which said you can find many answers there, and I found it, thanks for that. So I’m happy if you want to remove the whole theme .

Call it what you like, but in no way will that constitute a legal defence unless you happen to be a billionaire, perhaps.
