I bought my fags on arrival at Dalaman ( cheaper than plane ) and the limit coming home was 200 fags each. Be careful though cos at Dalaman on return they tell you thre is no limit but there is :?

Hi topasmire.I know you are allowed to buy 600 cigarettes from the duty free shop at dalaman when entering turkey.Unfortuneately i don't know about the alcohol limit.

You will be better of getting cigs from supermarket below ICR. He quoted me 32 lira for 200 Lambert, but thought they would be cheaper at aiport and they weren't, they were more.

I've been told before the cigarettes in the shops over there are fakes.

Yes you can take 5 litres of spirits into turkey and you can also buy it in duty free where you pick up your cases however you can only bring one litre back into country, not sure about cigarettes. Hope this helps
