Yes, 200 from Canaries.

There was a flight to Newcastle from here around one christmas, a lot of people had been paid a free holiday here to load up on cigs. The customs men a t Newcastle had heard of it and where waiting. No one would dare pick up their bags from the carousel all did runners.

Does the 200 limit also apply to bringing them into Spain from Tenerife flatliner?
By:

When: 30 Jan 10 15:29
Legally I don,t know, I do know when I was flying to ALicante via Madrid from Tenerife I never even knew where the customs was, they don,t seem to bother at all with internal flights.

But then again guess no-one is gonna fly from spain to canaries for cheap cigs.

Oh I don't know! - I'm in Valencia and they are 35 euros here so approximately double the price you are saying and you're only across the water!
By:

When: 30 Jan 10 15:43
maybe not double - maths not working so good but might be worth it if ferry prices are low enough!

oh and the 3200 is a guideline not law.
say you go only once or twice a year, bring 5000 , no problem.
if you're going ten times a year 3200, you'll get the occasional tug.

I got nicked with about 20 sleeves of B&H a few years ago after hols in Canaries.... wouldnt mind, but i dont even smoke ;-)

weird thing was that about a year later had knock on door from 2 customs guys who wanted a look round the house.... didnt have to let em in as they had no warrant, but had nothing to hide.

Wasnt a thorough check, only had a look round downstairs.... i could have had a loft full of ciggies.

^^^Canaries do not count as part of the EU as far as the cig allowance goes. So only allowed one sleeve.
