How many cigarettes on the first landing?

[ana_ana]

Do you know how many cigarrettes am I allowed to carry on the first landing? And wine?

 

[sttn]

1800 Cigarettes
15 cases of wines
30KG Cocaine
15KG Heroine
350KG Canabis are allowed by CBSA If you like more you can swallow or conseal in your bags too.

 

[Baloo]

Hmm, I think not


I understand that you are allowed to import only one of the following amounts of alcoholic beverages free of duty and taxes:

1.5 litres (53 imperial ounces) of wine; or
a total of 1.14 litres (40 ounces) of alcoholic beverages; or
up to 8.5 litres of beer or ale.

And to your question - 200 cigarettes.

Be aware, duty free allowances are limited when returning as a PR.

@ana_ana

On a serious note the CBSA import exemptions for PRs [taken as 'visitor's] are as below. Remember, this has nothing to do with our B4, which is for bringing-in "settler's used goods" w/out duty:
v
Part B – Visitors to Canada
The following duty-free allowances apply to each visitor entering into Canada:
■ Gifts (excludes alcohol and tobacco) valued at no more than CAN$60 each.
■ 1.5L of wine, or 1.14L of liquor, or 24 x 355 ml cans or bottles (8.5 L) of beer or ale.
■ 200 cigarettes, 200 tobacco sticks, 50 cigars or cigarillos and 200 grams of manufactured tobacco.

This is for 'returning residents' - not for 'landing' as a newcomer.
v
Part C – Residents of Canada
Each resident returning to Canada is entitled to one of the following personal exemptions based on his/her time absent from Canada (include all goods and/or gifts purchased or received abroad):
■ 24 hours: CAN$50 -Not claimable if goods exceed $50. Alcohol and tobacco cannot be claimed.
■ 48 hours: CAN$400 -This includes alcohol and tobacco (see table below).
■ 7 days: CAN$750 -This includes alcohol and tobacco (see table below).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alcohol and tobacco exemption table

There are enough tobacco and liquor stores in Canada! Why people bother so much about these on their first entry?

High taxes ;D

 

[sttn]

High taxes ;D

If they cannot afford tax system in Canada why they bother to come to Canada?

 

[sttn]

Besides if somebody is so addicted to tobacco and liquor what they can bring with them at the first entry would not last for their entire stay in Canada.
