Common rules
- Allowances are individual: a couple cannot add their allowances together for a single article (a 150 ml bottle of perfume, for example).
- Beyond the allowance, you must declare, and customs may tax all or part of the product.
- Keep your receipts: they prove the value of your purchases if you are checked.
Check before you go. These rules can change. See the official pages below. For the details of the Pas de la Casa crossing, see our customs page.
