You think you are in Spain? Yes, that's true - but there are still some special features. Especially to your advantage! The Canary Islands are a free trade zone and many things can be bought more cheaply here than at home or on the Spanish mainland. Although the islands belong to Spain and thus to the European Union, they are not part of the Community for VAT purposes and are a special economic zone. However, this also means special conditions for your return journey. Please note the information on this in your departure information. In brief, the most important conditions are - only one carton of cigarettes per adult person - all other goods up to a maximum of 430,- Euro Anything in excess of this must be declared when you enter the country.
