Random checks are performed to identify prohibited substances and goods.

Tax and Customs Board representatives are not always present at Kuressaare Airport, so you’ll need to arrange in advance if you wish meet them at the airport either before your outgoing flight or on arrival at Kuressaare Airport.

The Estonian Tax and Customs Board recommend that you check any limits on the quantities of various goods before you return home from a foreign country. You are also advised to review the regulations of any foreign destination before you travel abroad as the permitted import quantities may differ from one country to another.
