Wearing a money belt through customs.
Hi all,
Thanks to all who answered my earlier questions. My trip to the Philippines, via Abu Dhabi, is next week. What I am wondering, is that I have bought a money belt to wear under my cloths, can I only wear it with my money in after I arrive in the Philippines? Or can I wear it through the checks at Heathrow and Abu Dhabi. Thanks, Mick. |

Once the scanner spotted a couple of mosquito repellent wipes in foil envelopes in my pocket, the next time they managed to miss a pair of scissors I'd forgotten... -- William Black I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach Time for tea. |

You don't need to worry about wearing it while going through customs, its the various security checkpoints that might be more concerned about it. Just wear it anyway. The worst that can happen is they might ask you to take it off and put it through the scanner separately. Chris |

The worst that can happen is they might ask you to take it off and put it through the scanner separately. At Heathrow it seems to depend also on the mood of the security officers. In April I witnessed them telling an elderly Thai lady that her moneybelt was classed as an item of hand luggage, and she couldn't have it _and_ her handbag. Fortunately she was able to fit the belt into her handbag and that seemed to satisfy them. _______ Geoff B |
