Duty Free
The following goods may be taken into Belgium without incurring customs duty by travellers aged over 17 years arriving from non-EU countries:
200 cigarettes or 100 cigarillos or 50 cigars or 250g of tobacco; 2l of wine, 1l of spirits or 2l of sparkling wine or 2l of fortified wine; 50g of perfume and 250ml of eau de toilette; other goods up to €64.45 (subject to change – contact the Embassy for up-to-date information); 500g of coffee; 100g of tea.
Prohibited items: Unpreserved meat products. Other unpreserved foodstuffs must be declared.
Abolition of duty-free goods within the EU: On 30 June 1999, the sale of duty-free alcohol and tobacco at airports and at sea was abolished in all 15 EU member states. Although there are now no limits imposed on importing tobacco and alcohol products from one EU country to another, (with the exceptions of Denmark, Finland and Sweden, where limits are imposed), travellers should note that they may be required to prove at customs that the goods purchased are for personal use only.
