Data Devices
Roksolana customers tend to bring to Ukraine different portable data storage devices, such as digital cameras, MP3 players and PDAs. All of these devices, as well as personal computers, enable consumers to take advantage of digital technology advancements so they can store hundreds of songs, pictures or videos. Unfortunately, sometimes these items are not permitted by Customs. Customs officials in Dnepropetrovsk Airport for example will not listen to your explanations and might confiscate all your data or music CDs. These devices are considered to be potential mediums of secret information. So, you would better not take a lot of CDs to Dnepropetrovsk in order to avoid any unpleasant moments.
