Smuggling in a suitcase - what items are prohibited from being taken out of the resort.

Many tourists after their vacation at the resort want to bring home souvenir memories, such as shells from the beach or sand in a jar. However, many countries have prohibitions on transporting such items, for which violators will have to pay a fine.

At some popular resorts, such as Egypt, UAE, Thailand, New Zealand, and the Dominican Republic, it is prohibited to take shells from the beach. Italy is strict about preserving historical objects and prohibits taking ancient mosaics or marble.

Other resort prohibitions include:

• Turkey - carpets without a certificate;
• Vietnam - antiques, corals, plants, and tortoise stuffed animals;
• Dominican Republic - orchids, the heart of palm trees, national currency;
• Tunisia - medicines, leather goods, stuffed animals;
• Jordan - ivory products, stuffed animals, antiques;
• UAE - palm fruits and historical items;
• India - products made from rare animal skins and more.

It is also known where Ukrainian stars vacationed and which resorts they chose.

Ukrainian tourists should realize that there are restrictions on the export of souvenir memories from popular resorts, so it is better to check customs rules before departure to avoid troubles.
