Can anyone tell me what my allowance is Ref. taking Cigs and spirits from Larnaca going through the border to Sunny TRNC. Flying into Larnaca for the first time, we have always flown to Ercan, but the route from West Coast of Scotland is pretty miserable Galasgow- London - Ercan takes a full day even worse if you miss your connection through delays.

Hi Steve

Never had a problem South to North - but be wary the other way

(brother in law stopped,400 cigs lost, taken by police to cash machine to draw £85 to pay fine) Have a good one

You will not be allowed to buy duty free goods, ie cigs,spirits flying Uk to Larnica as there is no duty free goods between Eu members.
