Duty free allowance for bringing goods into the UK

You can find all allowances for bringing goods into the UK on the Government website.

Arriving customs procedures

If you have nothing to declare and are sure you don’t have more than the Customs Allowances, or any prohibited goods, go through the Green Channel.

Go to the Red Channel if you have something to declare. You must declare any goods in excess of the allowances above.

Customs carry out selective checks to look for banned and restricted goods.

Meat and plants

There are strict controls on the import of meat food and plants – not following the guidelines can lead to penalties. Explore the full list of allowances.
