Duty free allowance confusion, help?

[750XL]

Hi all, hoping someone can clear up duty free allowances into the UK for me.

Duty free allowance for:

Faroe Islands - United Kingdom = 200 cigs
Faroe Islands - Denmark = 400 cigs
Denmark - United Kingdom = 800 cigs


So how many cigs can I bring from Faroe Islands to the United Kingdom, if on a connecting flight through Denmark ?

If you land in the UK on a flight from Denmark, UK customs won't care that your journey originated elsewhere, so they won't have any problem if you're carrying 800.

Danish customs might, but that would depend on whether you encountered them during the course of your connection.
