- rev_bird 11y agoI believe there are import/export restrictions on international flights.
- ourmandave 11y agoI missed the intl' flight part. =( I was think of interstate travel.
- gozur88 11y agoIs it illegal, or is it just that you have to declare it?
- bostonpete 11y agoNot according to snopes: http://www.snopes.com/business/money/10000.asp http://www.snopes.com/business/money/10000.asp
- thedufer 11y agoDid you read that link? It says you must report entering/leaving the country with more than $10k. Sounds like that's what's being described.
- aidenn0 11y agoHowever it's also not illegal for them to confiscate the money from you with the only reason for suspicion is the amount of cash.
- triplesec 11y agoHowever, getting that cash back is nigh on impossible because the 'offense' is allegedly perpetrated by the cash, not by you. The law is an ass. Especially when it has anything to do with the 'war on drugs'.
- aidenn0 11y agoI agree. Every way the government has of depriving you of property without legitimate recourse is BS.
