In Reply to: you can take as much as you like BUT posted by clovis on Monday, 14. June 2010 at 17:51 Bali Time:
if you had excess alcohol you would be taken in to a little room and you had to come to an agreement on the amount. Now that they xray your all your bags with you present the tax is paid out in the open (you are not taking to the little room anymore). I think we paid $40 or $50 Aust dollars in April and I think we took 7 bottles (so we were bascially 4.5 bottles over our allowance). I always buy the The wine / Champange that I take when it is on special for say $10 per bottle, that way if they confiscate it I'm not loosing too much and at the same time if I pay the tax It is still a lot cheaper than buying it in Bali.
Hope this helps.
