Customs Inspection and Duty

When you reenter the United States via cruise ship, airplane, or vehicle, you will be asked to complete a form declaring (listing) all items you are bringing back into the U.S. that you did not have when you left. Any purchases above the duty-free exemption, whether it is $600, $800, or $1,200, are subject to a duty, which is simply a tax on imported goods. Shops that advertise as duty-free only mean that you do not pay the tax at the shop--you will still have to include your purchases in your declaration.
