Alcohol - I need help

OMG, you should see the leaving prezzies. All mainly champagne and spirits. Can I bring these or will I have to pay duty.
It will grieve me to have to give them away as I have given enough things away already that took me years to save for (tools, furniture, etc).

Hiya,

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you can only take in what your normal duty free allowance would be, otherwise you have to pay duty on it. The duty is apparently high in Oz, too.

I say this as someone who has just bought a load of wine at Tesco on special offer, only to be told by my Removal Company that they won't take it. We are now drinking a bottle a night! Poor us....We have also got a cupboard full of spirits to dispose of, so I think we are going to be popular in the next few weeks among our friends!
Tracy

I am going to give it a go and as Homer says if that bottle gets in my way I will have to drink it. I am sure they keep calling out to me.

Champagne party tonight

Wish us luck

we were also told by removers can not take but if you have lets say 3 bottles of champagne, to list as i have some from when we got married and want to take with me said this should be fine if you declaire it stating a wedding gift............

so you could say that

if not start drinking now

always save one for last day when leaving ..............
