Albania

Albania Customs says travelers entering Albania are exempt from import duties for goods contained in personal luggage when the goods are non-commercial. Duty-free treatment is therefore available within the published passenger limits.

Algeria

Algeria allows traveller relief only for personal effects and limited passenger quantities such as tobacco and alcohol. Duty-free treatment depends on staying within the official traveller allowance and not bringing goods for resale.

Argentina

Argentina allows travelers to bring in goods within the baggage and duty-free allowances set by ARCA customs guidance. The exemption depends on the travel route and the value or quantity limits that apply.
