You can import products such as alcohol and cigarettes for your own consumption from other EU countries without paying any duties or tax. From non-EU countries, you may import goods worth EUR 430 tax-free.
Please check the website of Finnish Customs for regulations regarding cigarettes, snus, medicine, plants, animals, foodstuffs and copyright-infringing products. For information about the export or import limitations regarding your destination country, please turn to the local customs or the embassy of your destination country.
You must declare any cash of EUR 10,000 or more to the customs authorities. The obligation to declare large amounts of cash applies both when entering and leaving the EU – and it also concerns transit passengers.
