three customs channels
passengers, arriving in the uk, will have to go through customs. most uk ports
and airports have three customs channels, while some have only one exit, with a
red-point phone for declaring goods. there are countries, such as canada and
the united states that do not operate a red and green channel system. customs
procedures for arriving passengers at many international airports, and some road
crossings, are separated into red and green channels. airports within the eu
also have a blue channel.

when to use the blue channel
passengers use the blue channel if they are travelling from a country within the
european union (eu) and they have no banned or restricted goods. travellers
can bring in an unlimited amount of most goods.
for excise goods such as alcohol and tobacco, there are no restrictions. however
travellers must meet the conditions below:
• transport the goods themselves.
• the goods are for their own use or as a gift. if the person they give the
goods to, pays them in any way, then it's not a gift and the goods may be seized.
if a customs official from the uk border agency (ukba) thinks travellers may
be bringing in excise goods such as alcohol and tobacco from the eu for
commercial use - perhaps to sell to other people or simply for reimbursement -
they may ask them questions and make checks. travellers may be asked about:
• the type and quantity of goods you’ve bought
• why you bought them
• how you paid for them
• how often you travel
• how much you normally smoke or drink
if the customs official is satisfied that the goods are for a commercial purpose,
he may seize them.
when to use the green channel
passengers use the green channel if they are travelling from outside the eu and
have with them:
• no more than their duty free allowances
• no banned or restricted goods
• less than 10,000 euros (or equivalent) in cash
customs officials from the uk border agency (ukba) carry out checks on
travellers in the green channel and there are penalties for failing to declare
goods. this can include seizure of the goods.
when to use the red channel or red-point phone
passengers should use the red channel or the red-point phone if they have:

• goods that exceed their duty free allowances
• any commercial merchandise in their baggage
• 10,000 euros or more (or equivalent) in cash
• any banned or restricted goods
travellers should also go through the red channel if they are unsure about what
they need to declare.
travellers will be able to speak to a ukba officer either in person or by using
the red-point phone. travellers should tell them everything that they are
bringing into the country. the ukba officer may ask to look inside their
luggage.
if travellers exceed their duty free allowances and have customs duty, excise
duty or import vat to pay, the customs official in the red channel will tell
how much to pay and travellers will have to pay it immediately. the customs
official will give a receipt which travellers should keep as proof of payment.
if passengers are using the red-point phone, they will be given instructions on
how to make their payment.
