Customs in Ecuador & Taxes
|
 |
|
The
main thing to remember about Ecuadorian customs is to not
go over the allowed weight limit for the luggage you are
allowed to have which is two bags or 175 pounds. Security
regulations with respect to carrying certain dangerous or
flammable materials are the same as in all of the international
airports.
|
In addition, each traveler is allowed to import one liter
of alcoholic beverages, 300 cigarettes and a reasonable
quantity of perfume. All of these articles are free from
taxes. There is no problem in bringing personal equipment,
however, if there is something that is not considered
to be a “personal object”, you should consult
with your consulate in Ecuador.
All archeological pieces are protected by law and it is
therefore prohibited to remove them from Ecuador because
there are considered as a cultural heritage of the country.
It is also illegal to import dangerous animals.
The only fee to be charged is the Airport Departure Tax
which is $25.00.
