Boy! Recently, the news has been lively, a news about the "local tyrant" passenger has attracted widespread attention, I heard that a passenger has a suitcase stuffed with bundles of dollars, a full 12.6 million yuan, and as a result, he was caught by the customs as soon as he entered the country, this is not a trivial matter, let's talk about the story behind this, and by the way, remind everyone not to step on the legal red line when traveling abroad
Sometimes, travel has to be prepared properly, not to mention bringing a gift bag, even selling a snack to pay more attention, and if you want to bring more than 10,000 yuan in cash, you really have to think about it, let us see together, why this traveler is so "generous", and how many risks are hidden behind it
This passenger, let's call him Lao Wang, Lao Wang has a small abacus in his heart, thinking that he will get some "real" money for this trip abroad, and as a result, he put the 12.6 million yuan in cash into the suitcase, Lao Wang is not carried away in his heart, thinking that he can go abroad majestically, in fact, this is a huge misunderstanding, but don't think that you can bring cash to go overseas unimpeded, the law is not vegetarian

Under normal circumstances, the customs has regulations on passengers carrying cash, and different countries and regions have clear restrictions on the amount of money carried, especially in our country, the foreign exchange limit for each person leaving the country every year is 50,000 yuan, if you accidentally exceed this limit, you have to be careful, this is not a child's house, and you have to pay for the illegal bills
Lao Wang doesn't know that in this case, the probability of encountering customs inspection is as high as winning the jackpot, which is not only a matter of personal freedom, but may even involve more serious legal issues such as money laundering
This tells us that if you want to travel abroad smoothly, the money you bring must be reasonable and safe, and the laws and regulations must be carefully pondered, don't look at the infinite scenery outside, in fact, there are many potential troubles waiting for us, although Lao Wang's suitcase is glittering, but his life may not be easy, and he may even have to work hard to get around in the detention center
Next, we have to bring the topic back to Lao Wang, I heard that he recently appeared among his friends again, and wanted to take photos and videos and post them on Weibo, but he didn't even get the entry procedures, how to look at Lao Wang is also a big man, but this matter really makes him lose face, although it looks bullish to bring so much cash abroad at one time, but it is like being in the whirlpool of the law, which is not a thing to be proud of

This is actually more than that, let's talk about what you should pay attention to when you want to bring cash when traveling abroad, travel with a large amount of cash, don't think that everything will be fine with a million dollars, more money, but it is a trouble, first of all, there is more money, you have to be careful of being stolen, we all know that showing cash is not a smart approach, in case you are targeted by bad people at the airport, hotel, or even in a public place, the situation will be very bad
Wang's experience reminds us that there is no choice when traveling abroad, and instead of being like a "Monopoly in a suitcase", it is better to consider other safer payment methods, credit cards can come in handy, and certain countries and regions can also use prepaid cards with international operations, which are safe and convenient, and bank cards can be withdrawn locally, minimizing the safety risks caused by carrying cash
Further, before we go abroad, we need to know more about local laws and regulations, each country has a set of rules for foreign exchange management, financial transactions, especially in some areas, the operating rules and fees of banks and machines will be much more complex than our domestic ones, therefore, do more homework, understand this information can save a lot of unnecessary trouble for subsequent travel
Speaking of other countries in a blink of an eye, let's look at the travel rules of some European countries, in fact, each place has its own regulations, such as the customs regulations of the Germany, if you bring more than 10,000 euros in cash into the country, you need to take the initiative to declare, in this case, Lao Wang has to be careful, if you do not declare, you have to return the money and fines if you are found, United States also have similar regulations, you must be within the standard limit, and if the amount is huge, it is absolutely common to be questioned

In addition to understanding the legal requirements, combined with some workplace experience, it is advisable to use some other security precautions when traveling, which is not limited to carrying and reporting cash, consider using some traveler's checks, and issuing international checks can help travelers protect the use of funds without carrying large amounts of cash
In addition, prepare a few gadgets before going abroad, such as anti-theft bags and locks, so that you can reduce the chance of luggage theft
In fact, on the balance of the law, we must be cautious in words and deeds, and bringing excess cash abroad is not only to experience the customs, but also to ensure that their legitimate rights and interests are not lost
Let's go back to the beginning, Lao Wang's experience is still fresh in my memory, is a simple trip destined to be so carefree? Even if it is a distant land, it will not help, this matter is a big question mark, in this information age, the circulation and transparency of funds have been greatly improved, but we have to beware of our own "problems" in the process of going abroad without encountering accidents
The picture comes from the Internet
Each journey has different gains, but this time the lesson that Lao Wang exchanged for money can be engraved in his heart, and understanding the law and safety is the truth of our journey
Dear friends, if you plan to travel abroad, remember to know the amount regulations in advance, and be careful to carry funds so as not to become the protagonist of the "joke"!
