Dropzone is not defined when used inside a component

Im currently trying to import vue2-dropzone into my Laravel project so it is using Laravel mix.

I am importing it in my bootstrap.js as below:

import vueDropzone from "vue2-dropzone";
Vue.component('vueDropzone', vueDropzone)

I then want to be able to use in one of my components which is inside a file called "CreatePersonalExpense.vue". This component is accessed using Vue router.

Below is a snippet of how it is being used in my component: 

<template>

<div class="form-row py-2">
    <div class="col-md-12">
        <h4>Upload</h4>
        <vue-dropzone v-on:vdropzone-sending="sendingFiles" id="drop1" ref="myVueDropzone" @vdropzone-complete-multiple="afterAllFilesUploaded" :options="dropOptions"></vue-dropzone>
    </div>
</div>

</template>

<script>
    export default {

        data() {
            return {
                type: "personal",
                id: "",
                total: "",
                files: {
                },
                dropOptions: {
                    url: '/api/expenses/files',
                    autoProcessQueue: false,
                    uploadMultiple: true,
                    headers: { "x-csrf-token": document.querySelector('meta[name="csrf-token"]').getAttribute('content') },
                    params: {}
                },
                errors: new Errors(),
                form: new Form(),
            }
        },

        components: {
            vueDropzone
        }
}
</script>

However the dropzone is not recognised and I get the error:

Uncaught ReferenceError: vueDropzone is not defined

However if I were to import the dropzone directly into this Vue component by putting import vueDropzone from "vue2-dropzone"; at the beginning of the script tag, dropzone works fine. Why can't I just include it in the bootstrap.js file and have it work for there?

If you already register vueDropzone in bootstrap.js, you don't need to register it again in your component. You should remove this in CreatePersonalExpense.vue

components: {
  vueDropzone
}

vueDropzone is an undefined variable. Just remove it and it should work.
