Customs and rules for the import of alcohol
Turkey
Hello, I had such a situation in Istanbul with alcohol ... In Donetsk, I bought 2 bottles of champagne in duty free, they put them not in a sealed bag, but just in a bag, and when I arrived in Istanbul, I was not allowed to take them with me, although I had a check..... I want to know in the future what to do in this situation and where the rules for transporting alcohol are described... Thank you!!

if you flew in transit through Istanbul, then they didn’t let you in correctly. if they went out into the city, then in Istanbul they really like to check luggage at the exit. I have not looked before. this year was 2 times and all 2 times asked to put on the scanner if you didn’t have any more alcohol besides champagne, you should have skipped it and they shouldn’t have cared where you bought it. it was logical to think that no one would allow you to take 2 bottles of champagne and carry them ...

Cashless payment (bank card) at Duty Free Istanbul Ataturk Airport
Turkey › Istanbul
Good afternoon. I flew from Antalya and forgot to look at the non-cash payment in Duty Free Antalya. I'm flying from Moscow to Istanbul, I don't really want to carry cash. Accordingly, the question arose whether it is possible to pay with a bank card in Duty Free stores? The same question is of interest about Sheremetyevo Airport, since I fly out of it - is it also possible to pay with a card? Well, another question - for those who flew domestic flights in Turkey from Istanbul Ataturk Airport ... Is there Duty Free for domestic flights / the airport is divided into international. and internal or not? I was in transit from Antalya once, but I didn’t understand :)

You can pay by card without any problems. Ataturk Airport has both international and domestic terminals (transition between them through a special tunnel). There is no duty free in the domestic terminal. Upon arrival at the international terminal, at the exit, on the first floor there is a semblance of Duty free (as in Antalya) - the range and prices leave much to be desired. But the "dutik" in the international terminal is one of the largest that I have ever seen. Farther...
Duty free question
Turkey
Hello, I'm flying to Turkey, and indeed, for the first time. Please tell me who knows how much you can buy goods in Duty Free, so that they let you on the plane. I understand that it will have to be carried in hand luggage? How are hand luggage checked before boarding the plane and upon arrival, both in Boryspil and in Antalya? For example, if I buy several bottles of alcohol in Duty Free, this will be included in the allowed weight of hand luggage, i.e. 7 kg. Thanks in advance for your reply.

I don’t know how it is in Boryspil, but there shouldn’t be any problems due to several bottles (unless, of course, you are going to stock up there with a box). Alcohol purchased in a dutik is not subject to the liquid allowance, as well as the weight of hand luggage, i.e. you can safely take your legal kg (in general, no one weighs hand luggage) + packages from duty free. By quantity, you can 1 liter of strong and 2 liters of weak alcohol. Farther...
passport control in istanbul
Ukraine
The other day I flew to Istanbul. Upon arrival at the passport control, I greeted the customs officer in Turkish and he asked me about a residence permit in Turkey, then they began to say that I had a problem with my passport (the deadline ends at the end of July 2014, I flew to Istanbul for the 3rd time, the last time I flew on 01/05/14, I had a return ticket and insurance and a paid hotel in my hands. I flew with relatives for 3 days in total) they started sending me from window to window, but they let me in anyway. (This despite the fact that almost all my pages are occupied Schengen) On the way back, they also asked about a residence permit on the passport, again answered that they didn’t, he twisted the passport and stamped the exit. What is the reason for this and that it’s better for me not to fly to Istanbul now ??? I have a new clean passport, will everything be ok with it or not?

And Schengen stamps do not play any role. And after all, nothing happened, they let you in, let you out, and the fact that they asked around a little - it's okay. Don't beat yourself up, everything will be fine. Farther...

I will share my real recent experience in Sabiha, although the connection in Istanbul is generally no different from the connection at other airports. You check in your luggage to the final destination. In Istanbul, upon arrival, look for the international transfers / transit sign, go through another personal inspection and go to drink coffee / shop in duty free while waiting for boarding the second flight. Two hours is a lot of time for a transfer, but if you suddenly feel that you are starti ... Farther...
in Turkey "duti fries"
Turkey
Tell me, in Turkey, "duti fries" only at the airport or is there in the city? What prices and in what currency is it better to pay:

And God forbid you to buy something on sightseeing tours or in those stores where you are brought centrally. The guide has his own percentage and the prices there are crazy, especially for leather, souvenirs and jewelry. It’s easier and cheaper to get out to the nearest city and climb the shopping centers yourself. Farther...
