Duty free and travel retail trade boasts a secure and transparent supply chain, which is supported by an industry fully committed to ensuring the authenticity, traceability and genuineness of its products. Making a meaningful contribution to the fight against illicit trade and counterfeiting is a priority for the industry, and we continuously seek to demonstrate our commitment to opposing criminal activity \u2013 in all its forms \u2013 to regulators, governments, and consumers. As the world emerges from the Covid-19 pandemic and international travel resumes, duty free sales will play a crucial role in the recovery of the global travel industry and the national economies it supports. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Too often, the duty free and travel retail industries are wrongly perceived as \u2018free zones\u2019, exempt from normal rules and regulations. This is not the case. All duty free and travel retail sales take place in highly regulated retail environments that are governed by strict customs allowances, such as airports, ports, ferries, cruise ships and land border shops. Duty free and travel retail stores at these locations are within security controlled areas, free from passing or casual customers. As a result of this, sales of duty free and travel retail products are subject to security protocols, including the requirement for customers to show proof of international travel and restrictions on allowances, to name just two. In order to deliver such secure conditions, members of the duty free and travel retail industry willingly engage with governments and regulators to deliver on all legal requirements. With this approach, to the industry can deliver a fully robust supply chain which instils both industry and public confidence.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
