Oh, thanks for this. I will read it. Well, it sucks that you cant bring cheese without declaring it. I guess small piece of cheese is not worth trouble.
I have question about alcohol. I read this card, but it was unclear. So far I am planning to bring 2 bottles of wine and 1 bottle of 0.5 strong alcohol. Am I over my limits? It says wine OR liquor.. so I got confused.
Nothing to be confused about. It says "OR".

You would be exceeding the limit so you would have to declare them.

You can bring in something like 200 cigarettes (basically a carton), 200 g of tobacco or 50 cigars and ONE Litre alcoholic beverage. If you bring more than this amount you have to declare it.
You can bring up to 20 kg of cheese per person, but the value has to be equal or less than 20$.
