Hand Luggage VS Checked in Bags
While jewellery is generally allowed in both hand luggage and checked in bags (should be double checked with airlines, and may vary based on the country you are traveling to and from), we suggest always carrying your jewellery in your handbag. This is just a safer alternative, as it would be with you at all times, rather than in a suitcase that is not under your personal supervision.
Declaring Jewellery at Customs
It is important to to know that different countries have different limits and taxations on bringing jewellery into the country. In order to ensure a smooth travel experience, be sure to check the laws of the place you are traveling to, and to have the receipts for the jewellery that you are bringing with you to prove the cost of the pieces that you have.
With this, your worries have now been resolved. All that’s left to do is SIT BACK AND ENJOY YOUR TRAVELS.
