It's your choice to declare or not, but you won't be forced to do it. My brother didn't declare when he went on a vacation, and no one controlled this. So, you can easily plan your next vacation as my brother did. He is getting married soon, and he said that he wants to have a party with his friends. So we planned it and booked the hotel through https://hoopladoopla.com/category/travel because we get a 10% discount. I always choose options that are more financially advantageous.
