As a returning crewmember you are authorized an _____ exemption.

• A. $800 exemption (duty and tax waived) every 30 days
• B. $200 exemption per trip
• C. $1000 exemption yearly
• D. No exemption

Answer: (A)

The main idea is a monthly duty-free allowance for returning crewmembers. The authorized exemption is $800 in duty and tax waived, and it resets every 30 days. That means in each 30‑day window you can bring goods up to $800 without paying duty or tax. This timing and amount make it the best fit, because the policy explicitly ties the exemption to a 30‑day cycle and a specific dollar amount. The other options don’t match that setup: some imply a per-trip or yearly cap, or no exemption at all, which aren’t consistent with the monthly $800 allowance.
