What are the restrictions on the import and export of goods from Dubai?
It is important to remember that there are strict rules regarding the import and export of certain goods. Drugs, pornographic materials, weapons and certain medicines are prohibited for import and can lead to serious consequences. When exporting goods, pay attention to restrictions on the amount of alcohol and tobacco products. If you are buying gold or jewelry, keep the receipts in case of customs control. I made sure that it is better to familiarize yourself with the rules of your country for the import of goods in advance in order to avoid trouble when returning home.
