Shop, shop, shop. Is there a word more beautiful, more exciting and more magical than “shopping” for those who visit the Chuy? It is necessary to see the city in order to understand this article.

Visit to the duty-free shops at Chuy

The border City of Chuy has certain features of its own which make it different from the rest of the Uruguayan cities. Its people, but especially its visitors, have given it a name deriving from the American expression “duty-free shop” which has become a synonym for its own name: “freeshop”. It is so popular in the entire region for being a tax-free area visited by thousands of people every day.

However, each of them maintains their own identity, which is even manifested in dialects, codes and diverse products impossible to get somewhere else. Visitors may find the best sales to buy wine, liquor, jackets, shirts, T-shirts, glasses, watches, photo cameras, mp3 and mp4 players, cell phones, Ipods, TV sets, audio equipments and computers, as well as all kinds of perfumes and fragrances made by the most important brands in the world.

Useful Data

Bear in mind

Even though everything is tax-free at the Chuy, it is essential to claim an invoice and to be well informed as to what products may be introduced through Customs. The same thing happens with the shopping warranties, as most brands are represented in various cities in the region, either at Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay, as well as in Brazil.
