Can you take binoculars to Saudi Arabia. I have an expensive pair I use for landscape sketching locations and hiking. I do not want them to be confiscated at the airport.

Hi Oyanglon,

Unfortunatley, Saudi Arabia has really tough customs regulations and binoculars are one of the items which are not permitted to be brought into the country.

For a full list of items that are banned from the country just take a look at the Shipping and Removals in Saudi Arabia.

I love star gazing and since there is lots of open land with little light from cities can I bring my telescope?
