Hey everyone,

I’m taking my first international vacation next week. I am going to the Philippines, but I have a layover in South Korea. I just got an email from my airline and it says I might need to fill customs declaration. This is kind of confusing me, because the Website says you have to declare goods that exceed $800 US. But it doesn’t specify if goods means everything you’re bringing, or just 1 item exceeding $800. The most expensive things I’m bringing are my phone, steam deck and a tablet. Everything else is just clothes. But all that together would be over $800, (my phone was $799.99 brand new). So I’m just not sure if I need to fill out a declaration or not. I tried looking for the answer but was unsuccessful.

EDIT: thanks everyone for the responses. It is clear now that by “goods” they mean items intended for sale. I will not need to sign a declaration form. Thanks!

Thanks!

    You’re not leaving any of it there, it’s all for personal use. You don’t need to declare it, it’s not “goods”.
