Almost all the fans to travel by plane brings another love. Love for the duty free shops at airports - shop Duty Free.
What does this name? The fact that goods entering into such outlets are not taxed, since the act of sale is formally committed outside the state, allowing goods to duty-free is much cheaper than the same products in other stores.
As a general rule, goods duty-free - it's tobacco, a variety of alcoholic drinks, perfumes, cosmetics, souvenirs, toys, and sometimes clothing and accessories prestigious brands. Why in the duty free shops of the biggest demand is for alcohol and tobacco products? For the simple reason that these groups of goods subject to the highest taxes anywhere except duty-free shops. It is on these products, you can save up to 50% compared with prices in urban stores.
But especially all the duty-free shops that service them being exclusively in the presence of a boarding pass and passport, confirming the fact that you leave the country or enter into it.

These different "dyutiki»

course, in different countries range of duty free shops vary. So, for example, duty-free Singapore, Dubai, Barcelona can offer exclusive things most important brands, while "dyutiki" Egypt and Croatia, and look modest, and can not boast such a rich and luxurious range.
At Dubai airport shops are open around the clock in all three terminals and sell almost anything - from alcohol and tobacco products to jewelry and books of famous brands. Savings up to 25% to 50 real%.
However, the difference between shops in different countries is not only a range. In all shops duty-free has its limitations for the purchase of goods of a certain type, rather than on their import and export from the country. For example, in Turkey you can withdraw no more than 8 liters of whiskey, and import - no more than five or seven liter po700 ml bottles of wine or spirits.
Most expensive duty-free located in the UK, Sweden, France and Belgium. Affordable prices in Italy, Spain and Bulgaria. Another interesting proposal - in the duty-free shops in the United Arab Emirates. Cheap in Turkey and Egypt, but the quality leaves much to be desired.
Hurghada prices "dyutike are comparable with Moscow: for example, an elite perfume, like alcohol, can be purchased at Within 53 dollars.
differs somewhat in range and price ratio Indian duty-free. The fact that the Airport Goa banned the export of hides the tiger, wild animals, birds, feathers, leather and leather products from rare reptiles, live plants, gold and silver bullion, antiques and antiquities, made over a hundred years ago, jewelry worth More than 2000 rupees, except those purchased in "Duty Free Shop". Thus, if the airports of other countries to buy a more expensive gifts, then Goa duty-free shop - almost the only place where you can buy something special in memory of the country. Another difference from the rest of Goa lies in the fact that buying alcohol with him to Goa is not necessary. Much more interesting and less expensive is the local brew "give a damn about" apples, cashews and coconut. In addition, there circulated a beautiful Portuguese port wine and dark rum for the ridiculous price of the order - $ 01.02 per bottle.
Also, people in the know praise the duty free in Bangkok and Japan.
European duty-free shops are conservative, as Europe itself: from late evening until morning the officers of these companies have a rest. Europe's largest "dyutik in Frankfurt. In Vienna, "dyutike" can be successfully purchased in boutiques such as Boss, Berberry and Etro. If you're in Italy or Greece and want to buy as a souvenir olive oil or pasta, do better than this in town, as in duty-free, this product is usually sold at an inflated price.
; Duty Free Shops are not only at airports but also in airplanes, and ferries, cruises to the Nordic countries: often half the deck of the giant ship is a trading zone Duty Free.
; And another important point: the price in Europe "dyutikah" mostly in euros, dollars and local currency. But! For Russian citizens is much cheaper to buy products in those countries where the main
international currency in the dyutike "are dollars (U.S., Canada, India, Korea, China). Due to the fact that the ruble to a dollar lower than the Euro.
