It's also technically the official form that needs to be filled out for declaring purchases over the US$300 limit that you should pay duty on.
Yes, but that limit only applies to residents. Every time I pass through customs in EZE, they ask me where I live, as soon as I say UK they don't pay any more attention to me. Although all baggage goes through the x-ray machine.
