About Cigars
Cigars are premium tobacco products with specific import regulations. Most countries allow 50-100 cigars duty-free. Cuban cigars have special restrictions in some countries (previously banned in the US, now allowed with limits). Premium cigars should be transported in humidors or protective cases. Keep purchase receipts for high-value cigars to prove legitimacy and value at customs.
