On leaving Germany: No coin of whatever currency may be exported from Germany without a certificate of previous importation as above. Paper (banknotes, cheques, bills, or any other negotiable instruments) up to 50,000 marks or the equivalent in foreign currency can be freely exported. Sums exceeding 50,000 marks may only be exported on producing certificate of importation or an export license issued by a German Finanzamt.

3. Regulations as to Import and Export of Goods.

Under the existing regulations in Germany the great majority of articles of any description are prohibited from being either imported or exported except upon the production of a German import or export license. These regulations apply especially to travellers—

(a.) On entering Germany: Without a certificate of import from the competent German authorities travellers who take with them such articles only as are actually required for personal use during the journey or for the execution of the traveller’s profession during the journey.

(b.) On leaving Germany: Travellers may take with them without providing themselves with an export license the following articles:—

(1.) Articles which the traveller has taken with him on entering Germany; evidence that this was the case may, however, in certain circumstances be demanded, more especially in the case of articles of value such as jewellery. Travellers entering Germany are therefore advised to obtain a certificate of importation for all such articles from the German Customs officials on entering Germany.

(2.) Further, only such articles as are required for the traveller’s personal use during the journey or for the execution of his profession during the journey. In the case of new articles (purchased during his sojourn in Germany) this is conditional upon the traveller declaring same to the German Customs officials without any attempt at evasion or concealment. In their own interest, therefore, travellers are earnestly advised to open and place before the Customs officials all their luggage for examination.

(3.) In all other cases an export license is required for prohibited articles. Import and export licenses are (provided the articles bought do not in any way contravene the regulations as to the control of export trade) obtainable at the competent export trade departments (Aussenhandelsstellen).

The above regulations are subject to alterations. Travellers are therefore advised on entering Germany to make inquiries with the Customs officials at the place of entry or, before leaving Germany after a prolonged stay, at the Tourists’ Offices, as to any changes in the regulations.
