The following goods may be imported into Estonia without incurring customs duty, by persons aged 18 or over:

• 200 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250g tobacco.
• 1l of alcohol over 22% or 2l of alcohol up to 22% and 2l of wine.
• 1kg of food products.
• 50g perfume.
• 250ml eau de toilette.

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 of the original 15 EU member states. Of the 10 new member states that joined the EU on 1 May 2004 and the two states that joined on 1 January 2007, these rules already apply to Cyprus and Malta. There are transitional rules in place for visitors returning to one of the original 15 EU countries from one of the other new EU countries. But for the original 15, plus Cyprus and Malta, there are no limits imposed on importing tobacco and alcohol products from one EU country to another. Travellers should note that they may be required to prove at customs that the goods purchased are for personal use only.

Prohibited Imports

It is not permitted to import meat or milk into Estonia. Contact the authorities for further information (tel: (6) 835 700; website: www.customs.ee).
