The duty-free limit of Hong Kong Customs is 5000 RMB, that is, there is no need to pay tax within this limit, and the excess is subject to tax. But as we all know, if you really spend 5000 yuan on it, you can't beat it. An iphone overspends every minute, not to mention buying other big products.
1. There are basically no restrictions on cosmetics and clothes. Recently, the customs mainly investigated luxury goods and electronic products, milk powder, cigarettes and bird's nest.
If you do buy a lot of electronic products, remember, you must open the package. For your own use, you can throw away all the packaging. I have to throw it away when I get home anyway. Apple products are generally electronic invoices, but you have to buy luxury gold watches. Remember, if you want the invoice of the box, you can ask the salesperson to mail it back to the mainland for you. If you don't want to mail it, you'd better separate the invoice box from the goods and don't go through the customs at the same time, so if the customs finds you, tell them what you used to be. If he can't find the receipt, it's none of your business.
There are cigarettes in the customs duty-free shop, so you can buy them directly at the duty-free shop.
4. Milk powder is limited to purchase per person 1800g. Almost two cans. Relax when you go through customs. I believe many local tyrants go shopping in Hong Kong. You will go naturally, and almost no one will check you.
In duty-free shops, each pass is limited to two cigarettes, and all kinds of raw meat and fruits cannot be taken out of customs.
6. If you want to buy clothes, shoes, etc. For family members, it is also recommended to remove the packaging, which can save a lot of luggage space.

Mothers who like Japanese brands can go to city supermarkets, Yitian department stores and JUSCO Japanese brand department stores to buy maternal and child products.
Like medicine, if you buy milk powder, recommend Watsons, Wanning, Baijia, Wellcome and other chain stores. Although pharmacies also sell milk powder, the price is very cheap, but the control of pharmacies is very loose, and local people in Hong Kong rarely buy it ~
