- CUSTOMS INFORMATION * -

 

Upon arrival you will go through customs and immigration. Be sure your entrance papers are officially stamped showing the number of days allowed for your stay in the country. You will be given a copy of these papers, keep them in a safe place, as you will need them to leave the country. In case these papers are lost you must contact the local tour operator at least 72 hours prior to your departure from the country as time is needed to process the necessary replacement paperwork.

According to Ecuadorian laws, any person that enters the country temporarily is exempt from the payment of any customs duty. This means that you should not pay any taxes or duties for your luggage, new or used articles that you will use during your trip, and portable items such as photo cameras, video cameras, laptops, radios and CD players. Aside from the limitations set by each airline, there are no specific customs restrictions concerning the number of pieces of luggage or maximum weight you are allowed to bring into the country.
