Before the trip you’d settle all your business. On the eve of departure you should pack your things in a suitcase. On the day of departure you call a taxi and go to the airport.

The airport is a busy place. Every day many people come to airport to board the planes and to fly to various places. For some time you stay in the waiting-room. If you are hungry you may go to the snack-bar.

In some time the passengers are invited to take their seats. Before the flight the passengers must register their tickets and luggage. Then you go through Customs control. The customs inspectors check your luggage and documents. After these procedures you board the plane. The passengers are permitted to take with them only personal belongings.

Travelling abroad

Nowadays travelling abroad is very popular. Some people prefer to travel because it’s the fastest mean of transportation. While travelling abroad you have to go through customs, sometimes several times.

As a rule the customs officers check your passports and visas if they are required. When coming to some countries you may need a health certificate or vaccination.

If you have something to declare, then you are to fill in the declaration form. The customs officers may ask you to show your luggage to them. Usually articles for personal use and wear and also used items and gifts are not liable to duty anywhere. If you are caring much currency you should also declare it. If you are caring weapons you need a permit. Although some items are liable to duty, if you carry only a small amount of them, they are duty free.

Do not try to break the customs rules and regulations because you may have a lot of troubles.
