    is there a limit on cell phones?

    someone is asking me how many cell phones they can buy and bring back to mainland each person. don't ask me why. i don't know either. just wondering if there is a limit like baby formula. thanks.

    I'm pretty sure nobody in HK will give a damn how many phones you buy/export - but someone in China probably will unless you pay the correct 'fees'...

    and discard all packaging if its a new phone - just in case you're stopped.

    Customs will most likely stop and ask questions.

    I've flown many times to China and not had an issue but now in the last year customs are checking bags. I didn't have phones or anything like that but they took my 4 avocados I had!

    Sent from somewhere....
