Will I need to declare my digital camera in London?

Question

I am preparing for my trip to London in 3 weeks, and I would like to bring my digital camera. Will I need to declare it when I get to Heathrow?

Also, would I have to declare any shampoo/conditioner? (I would be putting it in my check-in luggage of course, since there's a limit for carry-on luggage)

Basically, I'm not bringing any alcohol, food, cigarettes, anything like that. Just clothes and stuff like that.

Answer 1

No, you don't have to declare it. They will ask if you have a laptop or a film camera, but since you don't have a film camera you will be fine. Shampoos and conditioners should be in a plastic bag, so they don't explode due to pressure, but you don't have to declare those items either.

Answer 2

no, you don't need to declare your digital camera ... they would still know it anyway ... through the airport xray ... good that you are putting your shampoo/conditioner in your checked in baggage since all handcarried fluid are subject to strict inspection and maybe confiscated ...
