Warning letter about seized goods

Post by Maciejhype5 » Thu Oct 25, 2018 2:34 am

Hello everyone, im new here. Sorry if the topic is in wrong place (and sorry for my english).

Today i flew from Poland to London luton. I was carrying few kilos of polish legal tobbaco. I was taken to customs, they interview me about tobbaco and didnt believed that is for my personal use becouse i had return ticket for same day (i brought it for me and my friends who live there and i will come back there in few days). They gave me warning letter about seized goods and a seizure information notice with notice 1 and notice 12a issued, they took whole tobbaco and let me free. It was my first time with customs. They said its a warning for me for first time and next time will be with some more serious consequences. I also asked about paying some penalty or something and they told me i won’t pay anything but i have read in internet that they can send some letter to Poland with duty to pay.

So my question is: will i pay something for this tobbaco or i have some other consequences? What can i do ?

This isn't an immigration issue, and I don't believe there are many members here with experience of this scenario. You just have to wait for any further communications - presumably they have your full address. Potentially this may flag up against your name when you next enter the UK.
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.

Not on an Immigration forum :idea:
(Casa, not CR001)
Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
