Full details

Wine duty-free allowances are separate from spirits in many countries and are often more generous given wine's lower alcohol content. The UK permits 18 liters of still wine duty-free for personal import. Australia allows 2.25 liters of wine duty-free

QUANTITY CHECK

litres

Duty-free: 2L alcohol, 400 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250g tobacco per adult. Balikbayan boxes (large boxes sent by overseas Filipinos) valued at PHP 150,000 (~USD $2,700) or less are exempt from duties and taxes (once per year per sender). Arriving passengers may bring in PHP 10,000 (~USD $175) in general goods duty-free.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Standard wine allowance typically 2-4L per traveler 18+. Above the allowance, excise + 12% VAT. Declare at Red Channel with purchase receipts.
