Senegal

On arrival the traveller must declare in detail the goods carried; relief from duties and taxes does not remove this declaration obligation. Accompanied personal effects are generally declared verbally. Where customs channels are in place, passing through the 'Nothing to declare' or 'Goods to declare' corridor itself counts as the declaration; per the DGD traveller guide this channel form exists, for now, only at certain customs offices (the guide cites Dakar-Yoff) and is not generalized to all border posts. Used personal effects showing no commercial intent are admitted duty-free, and the guide grants tolerances (personal gold or silver jewellery up to 50 g; 10 packets of cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250 g of tobacco, or a proportionate assortment up to 250 g; one bottle of spirits and one bottle of wine; tobacco and alcohol tolerances are excluded for persons under 18). These quantities are quoted from the old guide and are not re-confirmed as current. Relief goods must not be sold or given away locally, and unconsumed goods must be re-exported at the end of the stay. Basis: the DGD traveller guide on the former douanes-senegal.com site, still returned complete this round, while the same /ndn69/ path is not found on the current douanes.sn main site, so current validity is unconfirmed. The guide's currency figures are superseded and are not used here.
