There is now an extra couple of words on the inbound traveler
declaration checklist that you fill out coming back in through immigration and quarantine. Where it says Are you carrying any illegal items
such as firearms... pornography... you need to either declare it and
face the consequences, or illegally import it and then face any
consequences should it be found subsequently.<br></blockquote><div><br></div>They're revisiting that.</div><div><br></div><div>More broadly, though, Eric didn't ask about pornography, he asked about</div><div>"banned" films or books.
