\"Los extranjeros (...) podrán introducir al país efectos personales libres de tasas de importación.\"

\"Aliens (...) may bring personal effects into the country free from import duties\".

Even better in this context (shorter and to the point) is:

\"Aliens (...) may bring personal effects into the country duty-free\".

The best answer for this specific context is the last one I gave, but it does not fit the term format as the question was asked; hence, two answers.
