About Liechtenstein
Liechtenstein is a landlocked country in Central Europe situated between Switzerland and Austria. Its official language is German. The economy is primarily known for financial services, private banking, and advanced manufacturing.
The spirits market
Spirits are legal, and commercial imports face no import licensing requirements and enter duty-free under the shared Swiss customs territory. Domestic sales carry a spirits tax of CHF 29.00 per litre of pure alcohol plus 8.1% VAT, with retail distribution requiring concessions. Local distillers produce marc, gin, whisky, liqueurs, edelbrand, and fruit brandy. Exporters face strong opportunities supplying super-premium, artisanal, and craft spirits to specialized distributors and luxury dining establishments.
