It is my understanding that customs/police are only interested in laser POINTERS as it is these lasers that those mentally challenged individuals like to use to blind airline pilots and cause problems on freeways etc.
The component parts are perfectly legal to import.
I have purchased many powerful lasers over the years and never once had a drama, including lots of 600mW, 650nm red diodes, 405nm Violet diodes, a 2W (yes two Watts... or 2000mW) 445nm Blue diode and never had an issue with any of them.
I have also imported a 473nm Blue DPSS laser, this beauty contains a ~6 Watt 808nm infrared diode that can very easily burn holes through all sorts of items(and send you blind instantly) Amazing beautiful colour on the output though.
All these beams have ofcourse never seen open space, they are operated in a controlled environment.
One day I will get around to combining all these into a white laser for RGB laser shows and holography.
