Great forum!! I have scoured the posts and learned alot about winemaking supplies and other cool stuff, but I haven't seen anything on bringing in tobacco.

Does anyone have any info on bringing in cigarettes and/or smokeless tobacco (chewing tobacco, skoal, etc) in my checked luggage? quantity? maximum value in USD? etc, etc? Looks like my visa will be ready for a mid-Sept trip over to work like a dog and see you 'all!

Customs don't even give tobacco products a cursory glance.

There are many imported US and UK brands widely available at 25 - 30 Lyd for a 200 roll - including Marlies, Camel and Bennies.

Hand rolling and pipe tobacco is very rare but there are a couple of tobacconists on Gargaresh Road who occasionally stock it.
