Duty-Free Allowances

Duty-free allowances are the limits set by governments on the quantity of certain goods travelers can bring into a country without paying customs duties or taxes. These allowances vary by country and typically include items like alcohol, tobacco, and other specific products. When travelers stay within these limits, they can import these goods without incurring extra charges. If the quantity exceeds the allowance, additional taxes or duties may apply. Duty-free allowances aim to regulate imports, prevent smuggling, and facilitate tourism by allowing travelers to purchase and bring back certain items freely within set limits.
