Question 4: What foods can you bring to the United States? The following foods are not allowed. Check to see if you want to bring them. items. Try not to take too much trouble with it. Just go to the United States to buy it. There are Chinese supermarkets.

When coming to the United States and going through customs, some people always take chances. Contraband items are not allowed. The United States has strict regulations on this. Violation may result in confiscation of items, fines, or even arrest in serious cases.

The U.S. Customs and Boarder Protection (CBP) lists prohibited and restricted items (Prohibited and Restricted Items). The list is arranged in English alphabetical order of the items. The summary of this list is tailored to include "Chinese characteristics" and is generally classified as follows.

Meats, Livestock and Poultry. Whether fresh, dried, canned or vacuum packed, all are prohibited. Therefore, meat floss, beef jerky, etc. are not allowed. Foods containing meat are also prohibited. For example, meat rice dumplings, steamed buns, fresh meat mooncakes, etc. In addition, chicken feet are not allowed. Someone recently brought chicken feet and had them confiscated. The reason was to prevent bird flu from entering the United States...

Food Products. You can bring a small amount of bread into the United States. However, almost anything containing meat products, such as bouillon, soup mixes, etc., is not admissible. However, condiments, vinegar, cooking oil, honey, coffee and tea are allowed. You can bring some more Chinese characteristics, such as mushrooms, fungus, star anise and other seasonings; red dates, wolfberry, small walnuts, hawthorn slices, etc. If you like to eat seafood, congratulations, the United States does not have any special ban on this. For example, you can bring dried squid, yellow croaker, Kaiyang, dried shrimps, etc., but you cannot bring hairy crabs and dairy products.

Special reminder:

1) If you bring food, you must declare it on the form, and you will be inspected. Usually this inspection is as simple as other baggage inspections, just pass Just scan.

2) Some foods are not allowed to be brought in. But if you have declared it in advance, the food will only be confiscated.

3) If you carry contraband without declaring it, you may be punished.

Fruits and Vegetables. In the 1980s, California and federal authorities spent $100 million to deal with an outbreak of Mediterranean fruit fly. The root cause of this fruit fly outbreak is that someone brought fruit into the United States. Therefore, the United States takes strict precautions against fruits and vegetables.

If you brought apples or something from China and didn’t finish them on the plane, it’s best to throw them away or declare them before entering customs. Violators are fined $300 for the first offense and $500 for the second offense. In addition, you can bring cooked peanuts, but not raw ones.

Plants and Seeds. Import documents and other documents are required to enter the United States. Mainly to prevent pests. Therefore, if you plan to bring some rapeseed to grow your own vegetables, don’t take the risk. Some vegetables in the United States are more expensive than pork, but rapeseed is actually sold in American supermarkets. Of course, vegetables from your hometown may not be available, so you have to "do as the locals do." In addition, handicrafts made from plant materials (including straw) must be declared.

Soil. For example, if you bring a pot of flowers, the flowers are prohibited, and the soil in the pot is also prohibited.

Biologicals, such as cell cultures, biological tissues, etc. If you want to carry relevant biological products to the United States for biological research, you must obtain prior approval from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP).

Medication. You can take the medicines you will need, but only in reasonable amounts for personal use. In addition, narcotics and other drugs with potential for abuse, such as Rohypnol, GHB and Fen-Phen, are prohibited and violators will be subject to penalties. If you want to bring drugs containing addictive ingredients, such as cough drops,...gt;gt;

Question 5: What can you bring with you to the United States 1. CDs

U.S. Customs does not inspect CDs. When bringing pirated CDs, you should throw them away and put them in a CD bag so no one knows what they are. If you have packaged software produced in the United States, such as Windows, and it is opened and inspected in the United States, you are doomed. Or the same is true for pirated American movies. Generally speaking, if you bring a small amount, your items may be confiscated. If you bring a large amount, you may be suspected of selling, and you may be fined or imprisoned.

2. Random inspection

The unpacking inspection here is usually a random inspection. Generally, one will be selected from a few, and all those with food may be selected. You will have to fill out a customs declaration form on the plane. If you want to bring food, you must declare it. Otherwise, if you are caught, you may be fined and imprisoned. And once caught, they will be subject to frequent spot checks in the future. If cash or traveler's checks exceed US$10,000, they must be reported, otherwise they will be confiscated.

3. Packaging

There are no clear regulations on packaging for the time being. Many people misunderstand that vacuum sealing is required, which is not entirely correct. Things that are not allowed to be brought are not allowed to be vacuum-sealed, but things that are allowed to be brought can be brought without being sealed.

4. Food

(1) All chicken, duck, goose, pig, beef, sheep, deer and horse meat are not allowed. Whether it's sealed, vacuumed, or covered in dozens of plastic bags. It doesn’t matter whether it’s meat floss, intestines, mooncakes or biscuits, ham, canned meat, cured meat, sauced meat, fresh meat, bacon, dried meat, meat cakes, and meat dumplings. However, in rare cases, it may be possible to bring it: if it is a sealed can, and the label clearly indicates in English that it is cooked, and the can can be stored for a long time without freezing.

(2) If you bring something to eat on the plane, leave the leftover fruits, meat, and intestines on the plane and do not take them off.

(3) All fish are acceptable, including fish floss, dried fish, canned fish, and raw fish. The limit on caviar is 250 grams. If it exceeds 250 grams, all of it will be confiscated.

(4) Dairy products are generally acceptable. This includes yogurt and cheese, but since they are liquids, they must be checked in. (5) Soy products are acceptable, such as dried tofu, fermented bean curd, etc.

(6) Eight-treasure porridge is available, but it is also available in Chinese supermarkets in the United States.

(7) All fresh fruits are not allowed. Dry ones are best sealed. (8) Dried fruits are acceptable.

(9) Mooncakes containing egg yolk or meat are not allowed, but other types of mooncakes are allowed. If there is a clear description on the mooncake box of what is inside the mooncake, there is no need to open it. Otherwise, customs officers may not only open the box, but also cut open the mooncake for inspection. If someone wants to take advantage of the problem, it may not be possible to create a fake trademark, because the meat can be seen when scanning. If you cut it open and find meat inside, the trouble will be even greater.

(10) You can bring condiments, such as tofu, pickles, and various sauces, but they are easy to spill and the bottles and boxes are easy to break, so please be careful. They are usually available in Chinese supermarkets here, so it is not recommended to bring them. Dry seasonings are also available, but California has not allowed the entry of Sichuan peppercorns in recent years. Friends traveling from California should be careful. (11) Mushrooms, fungus, whatever.

5. Knives

You can bring knives in checked luggage, and customs will not care. It's best to bring 1 or 2 large kitchen knives, either Zhang Xiaoquan's or Wang Mazi's.

6. Clothes

(1) One problem is that many times there are no particularly small clothes. Students who are thin should try to bring enough clothes.

(2) For MBA, you must bring at least one formal suit, and a black suit is recommended. And ties and leather shoes of course.

7. Medicines: You can bring personal medicines casually, but don’t bring too many.

8. Tobacco and alcohol

Liquor is 1000 ml and 200 cigarettes. Moutai Wuliangye is sold in Chinese stores in the eastern and western United States. The excess amount for tobacco and alcohol is also allowed, just file the tax return. The tax on wine is not very high, about US$4-5 per bottle. I'm not particularly sure about cigarettes, but generally speaking they are more cost-effective than buying them in the United States. Cigarette taxes in the United States are very high. Cigars made in Cuba are not allowed. If the lighter is empty, you can put it in your carry-on luggage. Gas cannot be carried with you or checked in, unless you have a DOT-approved box to put it in. You can carry 1 set of safety matches with you or in your carry-on baggage, but they are not allowed in checked baggage. The thing about safety matches is that the match must be closed to strike, and it cannot strike on the wall.

9. Ceramics, pottery and porcelain are all acceptable.

However, the United States *** reminds everyone that some Chinese pottery and porcelain have not been inspected, and the lead content seriously exceeds the standard. If it is tableware May cause poisoning.

10. Leather items

Any items made of cat or dog skin are strictly prohibited from import. If there is any dog-skin mattress...gt;gt;

Question 6: Can I bring food to the United States? There is an article "Things to Bring with You to the United States" that talks about Boston, which you can refer to:

All things brought into the United States, whether old or new, must be declared. These include items for personal use as well as gifts. If the items you are declaring can be brought into the United States tax-free, you do not need to fill in the back part of the declaration form. You can declare it verbally to the customs officer. However, if the customs officer deems it necessary, he may require you to declare in writing.

Passengers can carry the following items tax-free (including customs duties and other exemptions) if they are only for their own use and not for others to use or sell:

Personal items (such as clothes) , accessories, toiletries, cameras, etc.).

One-quarter gallon (approximately one liter) of alcohol (including spirits, wine, beer, etc.). However, only adults over 21 years old and non-residents are exempt from tax. If the state *** has other restrictions on bringing alcohol into the state, those regulations shall prevail.

Vehicles (such as cars, trailers, airplanes, motorcycles, boats) are exclusively for your own use after entering the country. Passengers may bring gifts whose value does not exceed US$100. It is tax-free.

However, it is a condition that you have stayed in the United States for at least 72 hours and have not enjoyed this tax-free treatment in the past six months. Passengers can bring in one hundred cigars as a gift and include it as one of the gift items.

Regarding money, since the United States is not a foreign exchange control country, there is no limit on the amount of money that travelers can bring into or out of the United States. This money may include cash or foreign currency, or travellers' checks, money orders and other instruments. However, if the amount brought in or out by the passenger exceeds US$10,000 or its equivalent in foreign currency, it must be declared on Customs Form 479.

This money is not taxable. Passengers must declare it truthfully. Otherwise, if it is discovered and underreported, it will be subject to confiscation or other criminal sanctions depending on the seriousness of the case. Certain items are subject to import controls and are not allowed to be brought into the country unless you have a license or permit. Otherwise, if seized, they will be confiscated.

These prohibited items include: fruits, plants, vegetables and their products.

Meat, poultry and their products (such as sausages, dried meat, meat floss, fish floss, dried meat, etc.).

Absinthe (a spirit).

Biological materials.

Liquor-infused candies.

Question 7: When going to the United States, can I bring bagged snacks in my checked baggage? Plastic-sealed ones are okay, including pickles, Laoganma, and olives

Question 8 : What can I bring with me when traveling to the United States? Yes, as long as the food does not contain meat, it is fine, but it is not recommended to bring too much. In fact, you can buy it in American stores. In terms of hot water, American hotels all provide tap water that can be directly drank, and there are very few in the hotel industry. Hot water is provided, but when I traveled to the United States during my previous trip to the United States, the hotel provided hot water kettles. I don’t know if all hotels are like this. If the poster is really not used to drinking cold water and is not afraid of trouble, you can bring a hot water bottle just in case~

Question 9: What should I not bring with me to the United States? 1. Compact discs

US Customs does not inspect compact discs. When bringing pirated CDs, you should throw them away and put them in a CD bag so no one knows what they are. If you have packaged software produced in the United States, such as Windows, and it is opened and inspected in the United States, you are doomed. Or the same is true for pirated American movies.

Question 10: When Chinese people travel to the United States: What items cannot they bring? The number of Chinese people traveling to the United States is increasing. However, for many people who choose to travel to the United States for the first time, luggage items are very important. They do not understand the situation in the United States and think that many seemingly safe things can be brought to the United States. As a result, when I entered the country, I was taken away by the staff, and I felt baffled. When travelers from China enter the United States, there are some items that are prohibited from being brought into the United States. This includes: beef, pork, chicken and duck can be brought in cooked, but not raw, but sometimes it’s hard to tell. Recently, a Chinese tourist was fined for bringing Nanjing salted duck. Both raw and cooked seafood can be brought into the United States, but hairy crabs cannot. Animal offal, whether raw or cooked, is not allowed to be brought into the United States, nor are eggs. All types of fruits are strictly prohibited from being brought into the United States. Cooked peanuts are allowed, but raw peanuts are not. All kinds of seeds are not allowed to be brought into the United States, including vegetable and fruit seeds. What about plants? They can be brought into the United States, but a quarantine certificate is required. Traditional Chinese medicine products can be brought into the United States, but they must be non-parasitic plants. Precious Chinese medicinal materials such as snake gallbladder, leopard bone, tiger skin, etc. are protected animals and are strictly prohibited from being brought into the United States. Parasitic plants such as rabbit seeds and dendrobium are also prohibited from being brought into the United States. Tangerine peel, which is used as a traditional Chinese medicine, is also prohibited. When Chinese people travel to the United States, they are absolutely not allowed to bring the above-mentioned items. Please keep this in mind, keep a calm attitude when encountering problems, and listen carefully to the airport staff's explanations. Since you have arrived in the United States, you should abide by American laws and regulations, not to mention that American laws are also very strict.
