Duty Free Cyprus - Take Advantage of Savings in the Airport

There's money to be saved on duty free Cyprus goods, if you shop around at Cypriot airports. Savings of 44% can be made on Silk Cut Purple 200. Also, savings can be made up to 59% on 1 liter of Jameson Whiskey and 42% on 1 Liter of Smirnoff Red.

If you are flying within the European Union you are entitled to Tax Free prices on:

• fragrances


• cosmetics and skincare


• jewellery and souvenirs


• photographic and electrical goods


• fashion and accessories


• gifts

There are no longer any allowance restrictions on these Tax Free items. And, if you are flying outside the European Union you are entitled to your full allowance of goods at Tax and Duty Free prices.

Duty Free Cyprus Allowances - If you're travelling back from inside the EU

You do not have to pay tax or duty on goods that have been bought in Cyprus. In saying that, there are conditions that apply to your allowances:

• If you only travel with the goods and do not sell them, then you are entitled to them


• You and anyone you are travelling with cannot pool your individual other goods allowances to bring in an item worth more than the limit. The person bringing the item in will have to pay charges on the full value of the item


• If you bring in something worth more than your other goods allowance, you must pay charges on the full value, not just the value above the allowance


• Tobacco and alcohol allowances do not apply to persons aged under 17


How much can you actually bring back from Cyprus?

If you bring back any more than listed below, a Customs Officer is more likely to ask about the purposes for which you hold the goods:




• 3200 cigarettes


• 400 cigarillos


• 200 cigars


• 3kg tobacco


• 10 liters of spirits


• 20 liters of fortified wine


• 90 liters of wine


• 110 liters of beer


Anyone with purchases inside the limits are entitled to walk through the green channel at Customs posts at airports. However, customs officers can randomly search passenger luggage. So, anyone found to have shopping in excess of these limits is liable to pay duty on purchases.
