Customs Question Alcohol / Cigaretes

[KajunCruiser]

We are on 14 day Panama Canal Cruise & was wondering if you purchase cigarettes and smoke them onboard (during the cruise) do the count has things you need to claim with Customs when the cruise ends?

 

Are the Custom limits the same on 14 day cries as a 7 day cruise? Cigarettes & alcohol

 

Thanks in advance for your responses

It has to do with what you are importing into the country.

 

Doesn't matter if you are out of the country for a week or months.

 

ALL items purchased abroad and being physically imported (in your possession at the time you go through customs) must be declared on your customs form. You will pay duty on anything exceeding your exemption.

At customs you declare things that you have with you. Anything purchased and consumed outside the country doesn't get declared.

Thanks BirdTravels that's what I thought

In Canada Canadians are allowed differing amounts depending on the length of absence, the USA's rules do not vary.
