  • Tobacco: 200 cigarettes, 50 cigars or 250 grams of loose tobacco;
  • Alcohol: 1 liter of strong spirit, 2 liters of alcohol under 22 percent proof, and 2 liters of wine;
  • Coffee: 500 grams;
  • Perfume: 60 milliliters;
    There are no limits on what you can buy and take with you when you travel between EU countries, as long as it is for personal use and not for resale.
