Gibraltar Tobacco Allowance: Duty-Free Limits for Visitors
Bringing Tobacco into Gibraltar: What You Can Carry Duty-Free
Gibraltar, a British Overseas Territory, sets its own customs allowances for tobacco products brought in for personal use. Travelers arriving from outside the EU (including the UK post-Brexit) can import the following quantities without paying customs or excise duty:
| Product | Allowance |
| Cigarettes | 400 |
| Cigars | 200 |
| Pipe Tobacco / Hand-Rolling Tobacco | 250 grams |
Key Points to Remember
- Personal Use Only: Allowances apply only to tobacco for your own consumption, not for resale or commercial purposes.
- Age Restriction: You must be at least 17 years old to qualify for the tobacco allowance.
- Exceeding Limits: If you bring more than these quantities, you must declare the excess and pay applicable duties and taxes.
- Travel from EU/Spain: Different rules may apply if arriving directly from an EU country (though Gibraltar is outside the EU customs union). Always check current regulations before travel.
- Other Goods: Separate allowances exist for alcohol, perfume, and other goods.
