No specific restrictions for personal energy drinks
Details
Energy drinks are banned or restricted in several countries based on caffeine content or combination ingredients. Denmark and France previously banned Red Bull but reversed these bans following EU free movement rulings. Norway restricted energy drink. In the reverse direction (taking energy drinks out of Thailand): allowed — Energy drinks may be exported from Thailand freely at personal-use quantities. Arrival inspections are conducted by Thai Customs Department; when in doubt, use the declare (red) channel — declared goods at worst attract duty or surrender, while undeclared goods attract penalties.

Practical advice
Personal-quantity energy drinks (a 24-can case or under) clear Thai Customs without comment. Ingredients exceeding local regulator limits on taurine, guarana, or vitamin fortification may trigger food-safety review on bulk imports.
