Frequently Asked Questions
What are the customs allowances on cheap luxury cruises?
United States residents must declare all articles acquired abroad
and in their possession when they return to the U.S. This includes
items purchased in "duty-free" shops. The duty-free exemption
allowed for purchases or gifts for returning U.S. residents varies,
depending on how long they have been out of the U.S. and which countries
they have visited. The standard exemption for U.S. residents who
have been abroad more than 48 hours is $600 - $800, which may include
one liter of alcohol (if you are at least 21), 100 cigars and 200
cigarettes.
* Residents returning to the U.S. from the U.S. Virgin Islands may
bring $1,200 worth of goods duty-free. The duty-free exemption for
U.S. residents doesn't need to include items that are mailed back
to the U.S.; those will be assessed for duty when they arrive. The
duty-free exemption for a package mailed as a gift is $100; the
exemption for a package marked for personal use is $200. Non-U.S.
citizens should check with their local authorities for customs allowance
information. For more specific customs information, be sure to attend
the briefing by the Cruise Director before your ship reaches homeport.
(Check the daily onboard newsletter for time and place.) You can
also obtain information before you sail by contacting the nearest
U.S. Customs office (look under United States Government, Department
of Treasury in your local phone book). You can also visit the U.S.
Customs website - www.customs.ustreas.gov - or call 1.202.927.6724
and ask for the brochure "Know Before You Go." Note: Bottles
of liquor you purchase on board or ashore will be held in a secure
area and delivered to your stateroom at the conclusion of the cruise.
*U.S. Citizens and residents are not allowed to bring more than
200 cigarettes into the U.S. if they are produced in the U.S., whether
made for export or not.
