What are you not allowed to take with you when you travel abroad? The purchase restriction allows you to bring more money back to China.

Traveling and shopping abroad is a must-know lesson, but don't "get stuck" at the entry point of returning to China because the things you carry with you don't conform to the customs regulations, which will ruin your holiday. Let's talk about what you can take when you go out and what you must know:

(1) Carry in limited quantities-red wine or other alcoholic beverages, tobacco shreds or cigars

Alcoholic beverages and tobacco products are carried in limited quantities according to the customs regulations. The specific provisions are as follows:

(1) Residents in Hong Kong and Macao and mainland residents traveling to and from Hong Kong and Macao for personal reasons are limited to one bottle (less than .75 liter) of alcoholic beverages with duty-free degree of 12 degrees or above, 2 cigarettes, 5 cigars or 25 grams of cut tobacco;

(2) For other passengers, the duty-free alcoholic beverages of 12 degrees or above are limited to 2 bottles (less than 1.5 liters), 4 cigarettes, 1 cigars or 5 grams of cut tobacco.

the limit of the quantity of cigarettes and alcohol brought in by all kinds of passengers is within the duty-free limit, and the excess should be returned within a time limit. Passengers traveling to and from Hong Kong and Macao on the same day or many times in a short period of time are not allowed to bring wine duty-free.

(2) Duty-free carry-milk powder, cosmetics, electric cookers and other articles with a reasonable amount for personal use

According to the relevant provisions of Announcement No.54 of the General Administration of Customs in 21, the total value of articles for personal use carried by resident passengers is less than 5, yuan (including 5, yuan); If the total value of non-resident passengers is less than 2 yuan (including 2 yuan), the customs will release them duty-free. A single variety is limited to self-use and reasonable quantity. "Personal use" refers to the passenger's personal use and gift to relatives and friends, not for sale or rental. "Reasonable quantity" refers to the normal quantity stipulated by the customs according to the passenger's situation, the purpose of travel and the length of stay.

If passengers travel to and from Hong Kong and Macao for many times in a short period of time, the customs will only release articles necessary for the journey (the same below).

(3) Pay taxes after examination-watches, bags and other articles for personal use that exceed the limit

If the imported articles for personal use obtained by resident passengers abroad exceed 5, RMB, they are really for their own use after examination by the customs; if the imported articles for personal use intended to stay in China exceed 2, RMB, the customs will only levy taxes on the excess articles for personal use, and fully levy taxes on undivided single articles.
