<h1>Baggage Rules 1987 Amendment: Duty-Free Allowance Raised to 20,000; Usable Once Every 3 Years; New Permissible Items Added.</h1> The Baggage (Amendment) Rules, 1987, effective upon publication in the Official Gazette, modify the Baggage Rules, 1978. The amendment increases the duty-free allowance from five thousand to twenty thousand rupees and restricts passengers to utilize this benefit once every three years. It adds items like video cameras, computers, and word processing machines to the list of permissible goods. For calculating the duration of stay abroad, short visits to India not exceeding 30 days are disregarded, provided the total stay abroad is at least 365 days. Passengers cannot simultaneously use allowances under these rules and the Transfer of Residence Rules.
