Cigars??
 
I'm leaving for Oman in a couple of weeks and wondered if anyone knows about what can and what can't be shipped out/ imported.

I have 20 or so really nice cuban cigars which I don't want confiscating from me when my gear arrives a few weeks after I get there. Also I'd like to take some unopened tubs of creatine (weight training supplement bought from a high street store here in the UK) Anything you can't take? Other than the obvious drugs and booze etc?

Thanks in advance.

Cigars shouldn't be a problem...I once brought in 5 boxes of 25's,not even a question was asked...Not sure about Oman though...

via duty free, not in a container that has been shipped from the other side of the world and left in extreme heat and humidity :(

I brought 40 Cohiba's into Oman once and it wasn't an issue.

Via my suitcase,not DF...And I advise the OP to do the same...Why put 20 stogies in a container for many months??? They are like babies...The cigars I mean,not the container...
