duty free from UK to EU country during transition period [duplicate] - Crop unrecognizable person demonstrating British passport

I was under assumption that nothing changed during transition period but apparently. My friend flew from BHX to DUS on 25/02/2020. It was not allowed to buy any alcohol in duty-free shop except only 3 kinds of beverages... Does someone can comment on this with link to regulations in transition period? Thanks.



Best Answer

The transition period has not changed anything yet and the allowance still stays as 10 litres, as to the beverages I’m not sure why only 3 types were allowed.
