Travelling within EU - General information

There are no limits on what private persons may buy and take with them when they travel between EU countries, as long as the products purchased are for personal use and not for resale, with exception of new means of transport. VAT as well as possible other charges (e.g. excise duties on tobacco, alcohol …) will be included in the price of the products in the Member State of purchase and no further payment of taxes can be due in any other Member State.

However, special rules apply in the case of goods subject to excise duty, such as alcoholic beverages and tobacco products.

Please note that some prohibitions and restrictions on imports may also be applied when entering Slovenia from EU countries.
