No customs paperwork in NOLA

It was paperless when we came through Galveston in November. We had to fill them out when we debarked in Galveston in May, so the change happened sometime in between those months.

 

But, the gift shop manager said they transmit the list of purchasers of alcohol, tobacco and gift shop items around 1am before docking. She told us several passengers had been caught when they failed to declare the purchase of expensive watches and jewelry that exceeded the Customs limit.

 

Do they report all gift shop purchases or just from the passengers that bought more than their duty free limit?

I was on the Triumph last week and there was no customs paperwork. The people in front of me on debarkation, when asked if they had any tobacco or alcohol, they said they had 22 bottles...The customs guy said okay.

Just off Fantasy in Mobile (Dec 30), no paperwork and no questions asked. We could have had a suitcase full of anything, liquor, tobacco, a complete pharmacy, no one would ever know. It was very quick if everyone in the group has passports, which we appreciated greatly.
