Title: Duty free shop at Dalaman arrivals
Post by: ruthb on June 15, 2013, 13:30:52 PM
Can anyone let me know if there is actually a duty free shop at Dalaman Airport on the arrivals side?  I know we are allowed to bring 1 litre of spirits over 22% into Turkey, but are we able to purchase more spirits from the shop?

Yes, there is one in arrivals.
Import rules? I do not know.
In all the years I have been coming here, I have not seen anyone getting stopped and often there are no officials to be seen.

You can purchase at Dalaman on arrival but the last time I used it, they were restricting what you could buy.  However they did 'jiggle' things about because one Turkish man wanted spirits which I didn't so the girl allowed me his tobacco allowance and gave him my spirit allowance.  Like everywhere else, it will depend on who's at the check out and how they feel on the day but you can buy in addition to what you bought in the UK.  A couple of words in Turkish and a smile can help.  Good luck.

Can you still buy between 10pm and 6am?  I wouldn't rely on it until we know for sure.

Amaretto 14euro lt
Drambuie 25 euro lt

A site cheaper than UK prices, was open at 01.30 when we arrived no problems buying whatever we wanted, have noticed there is another Duty free shop to the left as you leave the airport
