Well it is like anywhere where there are not constants, like the UK is a constant and thye Duty Free, set within the EU, never changes, however other Countris do sometimes change things like this or make modifications so frequently even the officials are not always sure what it should be. I actually went to a lot of trouble to find out in 2009 and it was definitely 1 litre of Spirits each into Turkey ------------but ---- nobody seems to care much as long as you dont make it onvious but that could change overnight! When I lived in Dubai they were sticky about the amount of spirtits you brought in but not wine, and, as i was making short haul trips every week to Bahrain, Kuwait etc. I would always bring in 6+ bottles of wine --- until one day -- without warning they started to stop you and reduce it to 2, but gave you a forthinight to come back out and claim two bottles and bring them back again until you had "emptied" your "bonded stock". Being an obnoxious b*****d by nature I insisted on seeing a higher official, who explained that there are lots of different regulations they can apply any time, and they had decided to do so. (I got my wine back
)and I suspect Turkey is similar, ---one day--- out of the blue--- they will stop you and remove your excess ---- until then --- Carry on Sarn't Major
