Good afternoon! Exactly as much as you can carry) Everything from the Dutik is not standardized!
аватар mindguru
If you mean the duty free shop in your city before flying to Hurghada, then the standard is 1 liter of strong alcohol and 2 weak (beer). The rest is better to carry in yourself (which many do).

I'm flying from Barispol airport to Hurghada. How much one to take in Duty Free (Barispol) so that I don’t have problems with customs clearance at the Hurghada airport?

miropolska wrote everything correctly for you, how much you can carry in your hands
аватар Vika284
If you are flying from Boryspil Terminal D, pre-register on the mydutyfree website, in the duty free terminal D in Boryspil they give a 10% -15% discount, they offer a discount on the alcohol assortment you are interested in, you need to go to the cash desk in Duty free itself and show the order number or registration.

I thought so! But I did not know how many liters you can. I bought 10 liters, but they didn't let me in with it.
аватар miropolska
The main thing is that the packaging remains intact !!!
If the package is damaged, then, as mindguru writes, then the standard is 1 liter of strong alcohol and 2 weak (beer). The rest is better to carry in yourself (which many do).
аватар xostl
Packaging, is it a sealed bag with Duty Free in which alcohol? Do they stamp the passport?
аватар Vika284
xostl example as you can see in the photo we bought 0.5 brandy + whiskey 1 liter + 0.5 whiskey + a souvenir set of mini bottles of vodka in duty free in terminal D in Boryspil
аватар mindguru
What's with the packaging? Don't confuse the person. There are rules for crossing the border and products that are allowed to be imported into a particular country. There is Google, after all.
аватар xostl
Well, you have a maximum of 3 liters for 2 people, as I understand it. Did you import more?
аватар mindguru
xostl, do not put a mark in the passport. But if you, on arrival in Hurghada, buy something in the local dutik and keep the receipt, then on the way back you can theoretically get back VAT. In this case, you can buy alcohol as much as you like. At least 10 liters. Similar rules apply in many countries. For example, in Israel.
аватар mindguru
Let's do it again. It is theoretically possible to IMPORT anything into the country, but at your own peril and risk. There are international baggage rules. Break them or not - your own business.
аватар miropolska
Border crossing rules do not apply to goods from Dutik!
They personally carried 0.5 liters of whiskey + champagne + in a dutik, each bought 1 liter whiskey each.
Customs in Hurghada looked at the luggage for a long time !!!, they didn’t show interest in packages from the dutik at all!
аватар mindguru
Not "maximum 3 liters for 2 people". Read the rules carefully. This is not my whim.
аватар mindguru
miropolska, just don't tell anyone else that "the rules for crossing the border do not apply to goods from Dutik," because this is complete nonsense. I repeat:
It is theoretically possible to IMPORT anything into the country, but at your own peril and risk.

Then this: the question was about Hurghada - my answer is specifically about Hurghada!
аватар Vika284
xostl in the suitcases that we checked in luggage there were 4 more bottles of 0.7 for 2 suitcases (2 bottles per suitcase) for 2 people
аватар mindguru
My mother has been to Egypt twice and both times brought pieces of coral. Almost got caught last time. It passed miraculously. Does that mean everyone can break the rules?
аватар xostl
I think so! That it is better to buy alcohol at the Hurghada airport when you arrived and paritsa.
аватар mindguru
miropolska, read carefully. A person flies from Kyiv to Hurghada and is concerned about buying booze in the Borispol dutik, and not the Hurghada airport.
аватар mindguru
xostl, at Hurghada airport you can buy as much alcohol as you like. The question is its quality. However, in this case, the wording of the previous question is not entirely correct, since you get into duty free already AFTER passing through customs. Accordingly, you don’t have to worry whether she will miss it or not.
аватар Vika284
xostl carefully pack 1 bottle of 1 liter + 1 bottle of 0.7 into your suitcase and check it in your luggage, at Boryspil airport in duty, buy 3 more bottles, let's say 1 liter whiskey
аватар mindguru
And don't listen to this woman!
аватар miropolska
no, I'm talking about what you need to buy in Boryspil !!!
аватар Vika284
Such answers that it can be assumed that the author of the question does not fly to Hurghada airport, but to Ben Gurion or John F. Kennedy airport
аватар miropolska
By the way, customs checks already at the exit from the airport in Hurghada))), so the option to buy on arrival is not an option.
And in Khugrad in the city itself (for example, on Sheraton st. 2-3 shops) there are a lot of duty free, but locals are constantly asking to bring alcohol from Kyiv / Boryspil - cheaper and the quality is different)))
аватар mindguru
What is at the Sheraton is not Duty Free, although it is called that. For example, in our hotel, next to the pharmacy, there was a Dima Belan store.
I agree about the quality. Although in hotels bartenders also baryzhat local alcohol as much smoke goes.
аватар miropolska
No, Dyutik for sure!). They sell only abroad, only to foreigners!
аватар mindguru
In Kyiv on Shulyavka there is a DUTY FREE beer bar.
