Guernsey Channel Islands
GCI | Guernsey Shops
Duty Free and Tax Free special territory, where you can often buy in the airport shops upon arrival or in the local stores, taking advantage of the tax free or duty free shopping concessions.
The Channels Islands are outside the EEA and at present do not permit the sale of Duty Free on Arrival at the airport. However, you are still allowed to buy your duty free on departure from this airport. It is better to buy your Duty Free goods at the airport rather than downtown, because the local prices, especially for products like cigarettes and whisky, are more expensive and no different to mainland UK. Airport prices are much cheaper and because The Channel Islands are not part of the United Kingdom, you are permitted to buy the full international allowance.
This Country is regarded as outside the European Customs Union for tax purposes.
