I'm going out of the U.S. to Taiwan for a week, and I want to bring back possibly 10 cartons of cigarettes. Will airport security allow it? How many can I bring back? Are there any loopholes to bring them back? My friend said to remove the packs out of the cartons and stick them along the walls of the luggagecase, which worked for her. Anyway to stick more?

A carton of newports around here in cali is about $32-35, overseas is way cheaper, half price and a little more, I would say 13-14 bucks a carton and lower. And i'm not bringing them into taiwan, im bringing them back to the US.

I know with liquor, you are allowed so many bottles coming back from the caribbean and if you go over you just pay the duty your over on the purchase price. So on $100 you would pay $10.00 (It's usually 10% on liquor)
Your going to Taiwan so I would check how many cigarettes you are allowed to bring into Taiwan. Go to that customs website.
Good Luck.

Do they have special cigs over there or what? There might be a tax or law against importing/exporting certain items. You could call the airport info. number, maybe they can direct your call.
