am back, will do another jbr tomorrow, just thought would post this while it is still fresh....

I know there has been a few differences of opinion in regards to duty free alcohol. I posted a while back about it and got the usual "2.25litres - any more will pay duty on"

this is NOT the case. My brother is a customs officer and he has explained that there is a limit on the duty that you cant go over.

Provided you dont buy up big (perfume, cigarettes etc) you can bring back more than the 2.25 l per person.

We got back last night and brought in 7.5 litres between two of us. they even said we could have brough back 8 litres!!!

Yes at the duty free shop they tell you only 2.25l each, but its the customs people that count...... both the last 2 times we brought in more than our allowance - yes its all declared!


Anyway just thought i would post this

will post my last jbr soon
