Buy Lovely Doll Legally
When purchasing a doll, it’s important to ensure that you are following all relevant laws and regulations. Here’s how to make sure you’re buying a doll legally and responsibly:
Firstly, let us say that any doll that looks childlike or represents or impersonates children will never be sold by Realdollonline. The dolls that we supply within the “petite” range depict fully-developed women and display mature/womanly features so as not to be perceived in any way as children. We take the legality of sex dolls seriously, and so should you.
THE SHORT OF IT: Sex dolls are legal, they’re absolutely fine, and there is nothing wrong or illegal about them, provided they are not childlike. The rules that define “childlike” differ from country to country, so it is best to check out the guide below if you are unsure.
In strict religious countries (Countries in the Middle East and some countries in Africa, for example), sex dolls are banned altogether (tragic, we know!).
In many countries, they are completely fine, provided they meet criteria that ensure they are not childlike. Australia, Norway, and United Kingdom, for example, have height guidance on dolls with small breasts, which often means no mini-dolls or extra petite dolls allowed unless they have huge boobs and big curvy hips. If in doubt, always jump on our live chat and ask about the specific doll you are interested in. Australia has further rules, not just on height but on breast size. Technically, an A-cup breast size is considered too small.
Keep in mind if you’re trying to order a doll that is exactly the minimum height guidance your country allows, your doll is more likely to attract attention. In the UK, for example, 140cm is the estimated guidance for minimum height. However, we often recommend you order above this height, preferably 150cm and above, to totally clear all hurdles without issue – especially important if it is a petite doll with a cute face or small breasts.
We manually check every order, and if we suspect there could be issues with your order, we’ll flag it with you personally before we begin production. We don’t want to endanger our customers, and we also don’t want to endanger our business, not to mention the moral standpoint.
So, if you are wondering about your country’s rules, take a look at the chart below. It should go without saying that any of the countries marked “Legal” are referring to sex dolls that do not resemble children. It should also go without saying that regardless of legality, we do not sell dolls that resemble children, ever.
Countries that are marked as “Illegal” will not allow the importation of sex dolls.
Countries that are marked “Legal” should be ok to import any doll we sell. However, pay close attention to the countries such as Australia, the UK & Norway that have minimum height requirements or breast size.
Keep in mind torso dolls are generally ok, even though the UK has an estimated minimum height recommendation of 140cm, and torso dolls are often much smaller. If the torso resembles a fully grown adult woman, then it is okay.
All the seriousness aside, it’s good to be cautious, but if you buy from Realdollonline, we won’t put you at risk anyway… Still unsure? Give us a shout, and we’ll help you out.
