Gift for You, Gift for Me

Top fragrance and cosmetics brands at World Duty Free include designer names such as Chanel, Lancôme, Yves Saint Laurent, Clarins, Dior and Benefit to name but a few. There’s a massive 20% off selected fragrance lines and a whole host of airport exclusives so whether you’re treating yourself or shopping for a gift for a loved one, there’s something for everyone.

The tax free jewellery ranges at Liverpool John Lennon Airport World Duty Free include Pandora, Karen Millen and Swarovski, and we also stock a stunning collection of leather handbags by Radley, DKNY, Ted Baker and Guess amongst others. Plus you don’t need to worry if you arrive at the airport only to realise you’ve forgotten to pack your sunglasses. We have a full selection of designer brands so you can sunbathe in style.

Bought Too Much for your Hand Luggage?

Don't worry! Our airlines will allow you to carry 1 standard shopping bag onto the aircraft in addition to your hand luggage. In some cases, you'll need to keep your purchases in the specially sealed World Duty Free carrier bag to enjoy once you're at your destination in your resort or hotel.

Alternatively, with all this shopping to be done, you may wish to stock up and take advantage of World Duty Free's Shop and Collect service, allowing you to make purchases and then collect them when you return back to Liverpool. Shop and Collect is available to customers flying within the UK and EU only. Ask in store for details.

Duty Free and Tax Free

Some products in World Duty Free are only available to passengers travelling to destinations outside the European Union (EU). These are exempt from excise duty (and tax) and distinguishable in store by green labels.

Customs Allowances

There may be a limit on the quantity of some items you’re allowed to take into your destination country, and a similar limit on the amount you can then bring back into the UK. The rules are different for EU and non-EU destinations.  

Travelling to the UK or within the EU

As a general rule, if you’re travelling from Liverpool John Lennon Airport to a destination in the UK or within the EU, you’re entitled to buy as much fragrance, skincare, cosmetics, champagne, wine, selected spirits, fashion accessories, gifts and souvenirs as you want, all at tax-free equivalent prices. Some countries have no limit on the amount of tobacco and alcohol you can bring in, but these should be for your own personal consumption and there may be guidelines in place to determine and monitor this. More information on these guidelines is available at worlddutyfree.com

Travelling outside the EU

There will usually be restrictions on how much you can take into your destination country and, if you're returning to Liverpool, how much you can bring from your destination back into the UK.

You can find more information on customs allowances at worlddutyfree.com or gov.uk.
