Owning a sex doll may seem like a very common thing in modern times, especially when we live in a modern world where the social atmosphere is gradually opening up and more and more people are committed to challenging religious beliefs.

However, in some regions and countries, sex doll Still causing serious trouble for people. They can be seized and destroyed, or they can violate the law. Perhaps out of religion or belief, they believe that humans are sacred and should live with humans, and these man-made characters are low-level and tasteless, which is a huge taboo.

Here are 15 areas where sex dolls are prohibited:

Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia is the second largest tourist destination in the Middle East. Every year more than 20 million tourists come to visit the beautiful sand dunes and ancient tombs. However, in addition to prohibiting alcohol and eating pork, the country also bans sex dolls. Sex dolls and other related objects are prohibited under Sharia law because they are the product of sinful desires.

But Mecca has so-called “halal shops” that don’t sell sex dolls. Instead, they sell scented candles, essential oils and creams designed to enhance the atmosphere and increase appeal.

Iraq and Iran

Iraq and Iran are both Muslim countries and have absolutely zero tolerance for alcohol, drugs and sex dolls. Since the laws and management secrets of these two countries are relatively strict, and the laws and management secrets of their own countries are often regarded as external secrets, the punishment is relatively light, but confiscation is inevitable.

In one incident in 2017, Iraqi troops discovered a basement full of alcohol, soft drugs and sex dolls and determined that both Iraqi and Iranian citizens were involved in the trade. The exact details of the punishment have not been released to the public, but it is safe to say that the men will not be released lightly.

Kuwait

Rumour has it that sex dolls will be legalised in Kuwait, but that hasn’t happened by 2022. According to reports, customs found the relevant courier, but it was immediately destroyed. The person who ordered the goods was then taken away for questioning and fined financially for breaking the law.

Mauritius

Middle Eastern countries are not the only regions in the world with so-called “abstinence” laws. Africa also has clear laws prohibiting the importation of sex dolls.

Mauritius is an island nation known for its beautiful beaches, coral reefs and animals such as monkeys and turtles that roam freely in its streets. It is currently one of the most popular tourist countries. However, the local area is very strict about what is brought into the country, and sex dolls are one of the prohibited items. In Mauritius, if you find yourself buying sex dolls, you could face up to a year in prison and the risk of 100,000 Mauritian rupees (about 16,000 yuan).

Mexico

Didn’t expect, I’d see this country on the list, right? In my impression, Mexico is a country full of passion, but there are some things you can’t do in Mexico, one of which is buying sex dolls.

On the other hand, Mexico has stores of the same category. However, you can only buy underwear and some fetishes, such as various leather goods and blindfolds.

Maldives

Tropical islands are definitely everyone’s dream destination, but sex dolls are also banned in the Maldives. In fact, you will be confiscated during the courier inspection, and the authorities may even sentence you to prison. On one occasion, a man was jailed for six months for owning a doll.

Panama

Panama’s laws are a bit odd to say the least. It’s unclear whether sex dolls are actually illegal or what the penalties are for breaking the law. However, there appear to be no sex dolls in the country and no companies in the industry claiming their products have been sold to Panama.

Thailand

Thailand and Mexico are the two countries that amaze me the most. Because sex dolls are not allowed in this country known as the “city that never sleeps” and “men’s paradise,” but they have the most “third person” in the world.

Thailand is rich in culture, adventure and food. You might think their society is free and open because gender change is so common there. But this is not the case. Sex dolls are illegal here. Listed as contraband in Thailand. Although the punishment is not very severe, there is still a certain fine.

Vietnam

In 2011, the General Administration of Customs of Vietnam announced a ban on the entry of sex doll-related products.

Although the country’s laws have been “softened” and there are relevant foreshadowing, in the short term, the country is still excluded, even if the punishment is not as severe as some of the countries mentioned above.

Malaysia

Malaysia is a very popular tourist destination because shopping is very cheap.

Although it may seem like a laid-back place, possession and sale of sex dolls is illegal under the Malaysian Penal Code. Unlike Vietnam and Thailand, in Malaysia you can be fined and jailed for up to 3 years if you are caught with anything related to sex dolls.

Alabama, United States

Sex dolls seem to be a problem, even in some parts of the US. The sale of sex dolls has been criminalized under state regulations enacted in 1998. The act defines a sex doll as any doll product designed or marketed to stimulate humans.

Norway (sex dolls under 125cm)

If you live in Norway, you can buy sex dollsbut if you don’t want to end up paying a hefty fine or even 3 years in jail, there’s a law you need to be aware of.

Back in 2017, Norway’s Supreme Court signed a law banning citizens from buying sex dolls under 125cm over concerns mini sex doll May be at risk of child abuse.

India

India is an exotic country and the birthplace of Kamasutra, but when it comes to products such as sex dolls, India has no shortage of bizarre legal regulations.

Indian Penal Code stipulates that any book, picture, person or object that induces inappropriate thought and behavior should be considered obscene and then banned. That means sex dolls may or may not be legal, depending on how they look and are sold.

Brazil

Brazil is another surprising country. The country of origin of passionate samba even rejects sex dolls. But it must be noted that this country does not have clear laws and regulations to clearly define the legality of sex dolls.

There are no sex dolls in Brazil. The website in question makes it clear that they are illegal, but has no further information. On the other hand, there is also an article saying that Brazil and Norway have similar laws and that only sex dolls can be purchased in limited sizes.
