Are sex toys legal in India?

Many customers ask us if sex toys like dildos and vibrators are legal in India or if even shopping for them is legal. Unfortunately, these questions have not been a surprise to us. There is a common misconception that Indian law bans the sale of sex toys in India. Thankfully, this misconception is not true. Legal and regulatory restrictions on sex toys apply mainly to the importation and public display of sex toys by merchants. Owning and using sex toys in a private setting is perfectly lawful in India, as is their purchase from domestic retailers. Importing sex toys from abroad can lead to issues with Customs. Indian retailers have to make sure that their products come with discreet packaging. What Indian Laws and Regulations on Sex Toys Mean for you Importing sex toys from abroad may result in confiscation of your purchase along with a fine by Indian customs Owning and using sex toys in private settings is perfectly lawful Selling sex toys with discreet packaging is legal Selling sex toys with explicit packaging may violate Indian obscenity laws. Legal Ambiguity There is legal ambiguity around the sale of sex toys in India. And this ambiguity has led to inconsistency in how government agencies, including the Patent Office and Indian Customs, treat sex toys. Sadly, many Indian customs officers hold the far-reaching misconception that Indian law prohibits sex toys. India's Customs Act contributes to this confusion by obligating officers to ensure that imports align with community standards of morality and decency. Ordering sex toys from abroad on your own and having them shipped to India can lead to problems with customs. However, buying from domestic retailers is lawful. Indian retailers must comply with obscenity laws, so the packaging of said sex toys must be discreet. Otherwise, other legal issues shouldn't impact you as a retail consumer. This guide walks you through Indian rules and laws governing the lawful sale of sex toys in India!
