Do you have to declare tobacco at Customs?

Determining Customs Duty – The flat duty rate will apply to articles that are dutiable but that cannot be included in your personal exemption, even if you have not exceeded the exemption. For example, alcoholic beverages. If you return from Europe with $200 worth of purchases, including two liters of liquor, one liter will be duty-free under your returning resident personal allowance/exemption.

The other will be dutiable at 3 percent, plus any Internal Revenue Tax (IRT) that is due;
A joint declaration is a Customs declaration that can be made by family members who live in the same household and return to the United States together;

These travelers can combine their purchases to take advantage of a combined flat duty rate, no matter which family member owns a given item. The combined value of merchandise subject to a flat duty rate for a family of four traveling together would be $4,000.

Purchase totals must be rounded to the nearest dollar amount. Tobacco Products Returning resident travelers may import tobacco products only in quantities not exceeding the amounts specified in the personal exemptions for which the traveler qualifies (not more than 200 cigarettes and 100 cigars if arriving from other than a beneficiary country and insular possession).

Any quantities of tobacco products not permitted by a personal exemption are subject to detention, seizure, penalties, abandonment, and destruction. Tobacco products are typically purchased in duty-free stores, on sea carriers operating internationally or in foreign stores.

These products are usually marked “Tax Exempt;
For Use Outside the United States,” or “U;
Tax Exempt For Use Outside the United States;
” For example, a returning resident is eligible for the $800 duty-free personal exemption every 31 days, having remained for no less than 48 hours beyond the territorial limits of the United States except U;

Virgin Islands, in a contiguous country which maintains free zone or free port, has remained beyond the territorial limits of the United States not to exceed 24 hours. This exemption includes not more than 200 cigarettes and 100 cigars:

If the resident declares 400 previously exported cigarettes and proves American Goods Returning (AGR) , the resident would be permitted or allowed to bring back his AGR exempt from Customs duty.
If the resident declares 400 cigarettes, of which 200 are proven AGR or previously exported and 200 not AGR or not previously exported, the resident would be permitted to bring back his 200 previously exported cigarettes tax and Internal Revenue Tax (IRT) free under his exemption.
The tobacco exemption is available to each adult 21 years of age or over.

Cuba: In December 2014, President Obama announced his intention to re-establish diplomatic relations with Cuba. The President did not lift the embargo against Cuba. Absent a democratic or transitional government in Cuba, lifting the embargo requires a legislative statutory change. Since the announcement, however, the Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has amended the Cuba Assets Control Regulations (CACR), effective January 16, 2015, to authorize travel within certain categories to and from Cuba and to allow certain imports from and exports to Cuba.

All travelers, including those from Cuba, must comply with all applicable laws and regulations;
This includes the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (“HTSUS”) (2016) limitations on personal exemptions and rules of duty extended to non-residents and returning U;

residents. Persons subject to U. jurisdiction are authorized to engage in all transactions, including payments necessary to import certain goods and services produced by independent Cuban entrepreneurs as determined by the State Department and set forth in the State Department’s Section 515.

582 list located at FACT SHEET: U. Department of State Section 515. 582 List. On October 17, 2016, the Office of Foreign Asset Control relaxed restrictions so authorized travelers, arriving direct from Cuba, are now able to bring Cuban merchandise for personal use back to the United States and qualify for the U.

Resident exemption (HTSUS 9804. 00. 65, which allows up to $800 total in goods, and adults 21 and older may include 1 liter of alcohol, 200 cigarettes, and 100 cigars). This exemption also applies to travelers, arriving from any country in the world, with declared Cuban merchandise.

Declared amounts in excess of the exemption are subject to a flat 4% rate of duty, and any applicable IRS taxes, pursuant to HTSUS 9816. 00. 20 and 19 CFR 148. 101, which impose a duty rate of 4% of the fair retail value on goods from a Column 2 country.

Regarding goods: The Department of State will, in accordance with the State Department’s Section 515. 582, issue a list of prohibited goods. Placement on the list means that any listed good falls within certain Sections and Chapters of the HTSUS which do not qualify for this exception.

Regarding entrepreneurs : The Cuban entity must be a private business, such as a self-employed entrepreneur or other private entity, not owned or controlled by the Government of Cuba. Travelers engaging in these transactions are required to obtain evidence that demonstrates the goods purchased were obtained from a Cuban entrepreneur, as described above, and should be prepared to furnish evidence of such to U.

Government authorities upon request. Evidence may include a copy of the entrepreneur’s license and/or an invoice and/or purchase order demonstrating the goods were purchased from a specific Cuban entrepreneur. Whether a traveler presents adequate evidence that a good qualifies from importation and that it was bought from a licensed independent Cuban entrepreneur shall be determined on a case-by-case basis by the inspecting CBP officer.

Imports under Section 515. 582 (i. , imports from licensed independent entrepreneurs not on the Department of State’s prohibited list) must comply with all current U. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) formal and informal entry requirements, as applicable.

This means that, while there is no value cap on the amount of goods that may be imported under this provision, the applicable duties in the HTSUS must be considered. In particular, HTSUS 9804. 00. 65 allows for the duty-free importation of personal-use articles from a Column 2 country when the fair retail value of such goods is under $800.

Also see 19 C;
148;
33;
HTSUS 9816;
00;
20 establishes a duty rate of 4% of the fair retail value for personal-use articles under $1,000 imported from a Column 2 country;
Thus, any articles imported under this section for personal use with a value of under $800 can be imported duty free, and any articles imported for personal use with a value between $800 and $1800, will be subject to a flat 4% duty rate;

Any articles valued over $1800, regardless of whether for personal use, will be subject to entry and should be classified, appraised, and assessed duty appropriately under the specific HTSUS Column 2 rates. Also see 19 C. 148. 101 and 148. 102. Any commercial importation, i.

, not for personal use, is subject to entry requirements and payment of applicable duties, fees, and taxes. While these revised regulations may facilitate certain travel and trade with Cuba, all other laws and regulations applicable to international travel and the importation/exportation of goods remain in full effect.

This means that all United States agency requirements applicable to a particular importation must be met and fully complied with, such as the regulations of the Food and Drug Administration, the Consumer Product Safety Commission, and the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. ) of alcoholic beverages may be included in your returning resident personal exemption if:

You are at least 21 years old.
It is intended exclusively for your personal use and not for sale.
It does not violate the laws of the state in which you arrive.

Federal and state regulations allow you to bring back one liter of an alcoholic beverage for personal use duty-free. However, states may allow you to bring back more than one liter, but you will have to pay any applicable Customs duty and IRT. While federal regulations do not specify a limit on the amount of alcohol you may bring back beyond the personal exemption amount, unusual quantities may raise suspicions that you are importing the alcohol for other purposes, such as for resale.

Alcoholic Beverages One American liter (33. 8 fl. oz. CBP officers enforce the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) laws, rules, and regulations and are authorized to make on-the-spot determinations that an importation is for commercial purposes.

If such determination is made, it may require you to obtain a permit and file a formal entry to import the alcohol before the alcohol is released. If you intend to bring back a substantial quantity of alcohol for your personal use, you should contact the U.

Port of Entry (POE) through which you will be re-entering and make prior arrangements for the importation. Also, state laws might limit the amount of alcohol you can bring in without a license. If you arrive in a state that has limitations on the amount of alcohol you may bring in without a license, that state’s law will be enforced by CBP, even though it may be more restrictive than federal regulations.

We recommend that you check with the state government about their limitations on quantities allowed for personal importation and additional state taxes that may apply. Ideally, this information should be obtained before traveling. In brief, for both alcohol and cigarettes, the quantities eligible for duty-free treatment may be included in your $800 or $1,600 returning resident personal exemption, just as any other purchase should be.

But unlike other kinds of merchandise, amounts beyond those discussed here as being duty-free are taxed, even if you have not exceeded, or even met, your personal exemption. For example, your exemption is $800 and you bring back three liters of wine and nothing else, two of those liters will be dutiable and IR taxed.

Federal law prohibits business-to-private consumer shipping of alcoholic beverages by mail within the United States.

What are the new UK duty-free limits?

Since 1 January 2021 when the UK left the EU, the benefit of a “booze cruise” has been severely limited. It is no longer possible to simply load up wine purchased from your favourite French vineyard, or indeed a superstore in Calais, and return to the UK without a few extra considerations. Since the start of the year, the worldwide duty-free limits per person for alcohol brought in to Great Britain (GB) are:

Beer – 42 litres.
Still wine – 18 litres.
Spirits or sparkling wine – 4 litres.

There are a few things to remember about these limits. Perhaps most important is that there is a cliff edge, so if you exceed the duty-free limit then you lose the duty-free allowance entirely. For example, if you bring back 19 litres of still wine, you will be taxed on all 19 litres and not just the extra litre.

If you have already bought a larger volume of wine perhaps for your long overdue wedding party and would like to bring it home regardless, you will need to declare it and pay tax and duty to UK customs;

The easiest way to do this is using the online service on gov. uk. You can do this from five days, or more specifically 120 hours, before you’re due to arrive in the UK. One further catch is that the online service can only be used for personal goods and this imposes a limit of 90 litres of still wine. To use the online service, you will be asked for:

The exact price of your goods in the currency you used to pay for them. When you enter the value of your goods in a foreign currency, the online service calculates the tax and duty owed using HMRC’s exchange rates for customs and VAT. The calculation uses the rates that apply at the time you make your declaration.
The quantity or volume of your goods.
The country where your goods were made or produced if you are travelling from the EU.
Your passport number or EU identity card number.
The date and time of your arrival.
A credit or debit card if you need to pay tax or duty.

You can use your driving licence number or phone number instead of a passport number if you’re travelling from England, Wales or Scotland to Northern Ireland. Note that by using the online service to declare your goods, you’re choosing not to use the customs tariff rates and main alcohol and tobacco duty rates to calculate the amount of customs and excise duty you owe, but accepting the HMRC calculation.

If you want to bring in more, you will have to visit the customs office on your departure and declare, pay in person and be prepared to persuade the officials that this is for your own use. The 90 litre limit for online declarations is apparently to prevent smuggling.

This comparison is not entirely straightforward, but there are tables for excise duties on gov. uk (see links below) and if you think that using the online service does not give you the best overall outcome for all the goods you’re declaring, then you can make an oral declaration to Border Force on arrival in the UK.

If you choose to make an oral declaration using the customs tariff rates and main alcohol and tobacco duty rates, they will apply to all the goods you’re declaring. Finally, in many cases the goods will have incurred the foreign jurisdiction’s equivalent of VAT at the point of purchase, so for example, TVA in France.

The UK VAT added to your tax bill is based on the gross cost, so the TVA inclusive cost. The “booze cruise” it would seem, is no longer a cheap option.

What is the duty-free allowance after Brexit?

The New Limits Following the cessation of the Brexit transition period on 31 December 2020, the appeal of alcohol stocking holidays has dropped. There is no longer the option to fill up trailers and car boots with countless bottles of wine and champagne and openly transport them through customs with a wide grin. The new worldwide duty-free limits per person for alcohol brought into Great Britain are:

Beer – 42 Litres
Still Wine – 18 Litres
Spirits or Sparkling Wine – 4 Litres

The biggest change since the New Year is that if you exceed the duty-free limit then you will lose the allowance on the duty-free items. This means that if you go over the limit, you will then be taxed on all items, not just the item that sent you over the limit. An example of this is would be if you tried to bring back 5 litres of prosecco (who wouldn’t?), you would be taxed on the 5 litres, not just the 1 that is over the limit.

The easiest way to declare and pay tax and duty to UK customs is the online service. You can do this from five days (120 hours) before you are due to arrive in the UK. The online service is for personal goods only, meaning there is a total threshold for what you can bring.

You can find the thresholds below. If you want to bring in more, you will have to visit the customs office on your departure to declare and pay in person.


Alcoholic beverages and alcohol	Upper threshold
Beer	110 litres
Still wine	90 litres
Sparkling wine	60 litres
Cider	20 litres
Sparkling cider of an alcoholic strength not exceeding 5. 5% by volume	20 litres
Sparkling cider of an alcoholic strength exceeding 5. 5% but less than 8. 5% by volume	20 litres
Made-wine	20 litres
Spirits	10 litres

The online service will require lots of finicky details so make sure you are prepared with all the details stated below before you start the declaration process.

The exact price of your goods in the currency you used to pay for them. When you enter the value of your goods in a foreign currency, the online service calculates the tax and duty owed using HMRC’s exchange rates for customs and VAT. The calculation uses the rates that apply at the time you make your declaration.
The quantity and volume of your goods. 10 bottles of still wine containing 10 litres
The country where your goods were made or produced if you are travelling from the EU.
Your passport number or EU identity card number. For travel between England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland you can use your driving licence or phone number.
The date and time of your arrival.
A credit or debit card if you need to pay tax or duty.

Please be aware that if you are using the online service to declare the goods you are bringing over, you will be choosing to calculate the amount of customs and excise duty you owe using the HMRC calculation NOT the customs tariff rates and main alcohol and tobacco duty rates. There could be potential for final numbers to end up different in the two methods. If you think that using the online service does not give you the best outcome for the goods you are declaring then you can make an oral declaration to Border Force when you arrive back into the UK.

If using the oral declaration method, then they will apply to all the goods you are declaring. In most cases, the goods will have incurred the foreign jurisdiction’s equivalent of VAT at the point of purchase.

The UK VAT added to your tax bill is based on the gross cost. Since 1st January 2021, residents of England, Scotland and Wales shopping in the EU (or Northern Ireland) are eligible to shop tax-free on certain goods as a private consumer. For more information on this click here.

Is it cheaper to buy cigarettes at the airport?
