    You will need to check what the Customs allowances are for Ireland. For the UK it's 3200 cigs per person duty paid.

    Found it for you HERE The cig allowance from an EU country back to Eire is 800 cigs so you will only be allowed 4 cartons.

    I think the best place to buy cheap and qualitative cigarettes is online cigarettes shop
    I always buy my cigarettes online from euro-cig.com as it's cheap and convenient and they come to my doorstep in a week or so ;)
