Will they let Israel in with a mini Segway?
We came to visit from Israel to Ukraine. My son asks to buy a mini segway, this is a skateboard on wheels, it weighs 20 kg and has a large battery. Will they let me through customs?

And call the customs and ask there. (Customs fees, etc.) These are more their questions than the airlines. Check with customs, if possible, then with the airlines. I think so!

Customs has nothing to do with it ... if you bought skis or a bicycle, what would be the customs fees? If there were 10 of them ... then it’s another matter, and then from the side of the Israeli customs, then what does ours have to do with it? Customs fees and taxes are paid for imports in general (except for some groups of goods). I think the airline will attribute this to the carriage of sports equipment (skis, golf equipment, skateboards, etc.) Most likely you will be asked to pay for an extra piece of baggage. Although some airlines allow the 1st piece of sports equipment to be carried free of charge. Some companies provide a discount for advance payment for an extra seat. Ie ... call the airline)

Those who are engaged in smuggling are not allowed through customs. Segway, 1 piece - this is not a commodity quantity and an item not prohibited for transportation. Because the fact that they let it go is not a question.
Question two:
1. Will the transportation cost money (depends on whether your air ticket entitles you to carry 20 kg of baggage, as well as on the dimensions of the packed segway). Here, as correctly advised above, you need to talk with the airline. Or maybe it’s not necessary - if the dimensions are normal, then the right to carry luggage is indicated on the ticket (more precisely, on the itinerary receipt).
2. Will there be a need for customs clearance when entering Israel (there will be no questions when departing from Ukraine). Here a lot depends on the packaging - if it does not attract the attention of customs officers, then it's good. And if it attracts, then how the card will fall. For peace of mind, you can make the Segway a little used, i.e. run it in Ukraine and put the documents on it to hell.

Pack it up, put it in luggage and no problem if there is no overweight. Put it in a large travel bag or suitcase and that's it. To do this, you can even buy something inexpensive, at one time. .

The transportation of batteries is not a matter of customs value, but first of all of safety. As far as I remember, batteries (over a certain size) cannot be carried in hand luggage. As for luggage - you need to check with the representatives of the airline about hand luggage - look at the airport website, what is written there.

Everywhere it is really written that mini segways, electric bicycles and scooters cannot be transported and it is really a safety issue, because the batteries can catch fire
