Local Customs

Travellers to Liechtenstein should expect to find a prosperous, highly industrialised society, that is of a piece with those found in the rest of western Europe. One thing to bear in mind might be that Liechtensteinian women were only given the right to vote in 1984 - and hence, outmoded and sexist attitudes may still prevail among older members of society. Generally speaking though, Liechtenstein is a modern country with an educated and flourishing population that encourage tourism and are friendly to visitors.

Duty Free

Travellers to Liechtenstein may import the following goods without paying custom duty: 400 cigarettes/50 cigars/250g tobacco, 750ml liquor, 50ml perfume and 250ml eau de toilette. Cameras must be declared on arrival, and may be accompanied by a reasonable amount of film.
