I'm arriving into St Petersburg and then going by train to Mongolia. I read somewhere that you have to make sure you claim all your money on the form you are given as you enter and make sure you get it stamped, otherwise customs will take it all when you leave. Apparently the form says you only need to fill in money over £2000, but you should fill it in anyway. Can you shed any light on this?

I don't travel with large amounts of money, and I have never even been asked how much I have when entering/exiting the country. I think the laws might have been changed recently, so perhaps the admin can provide specific details.
