Tjena jag undrar vad jag får ta med på flyget till USA och vad som sedan kommer igenom tullen.
Eftersom vi ska fira jul där vill vi ha med oss hemmagjort godis och kanske lite annat. Jag vet att man inte får med frukt och sådant som inte var fabriksförpackat (tex chips & snickers) ialla fall inte från usa men till vet jag inte. Är det någon som vet vad eller vad man inte får ta med vilka kriterier det ska uppfylla för att man ska få ombord det och igenom tullen.

Tja.

Vet inte exakt men det är rätt hårt in i USA. Inga frukter och grönsaker iaf.

Saxat lite där (finns hur mycket som helst som är förbjudet):

Food Products (Prepared)
You may bring bakery items and certain cheeses into the United States. The APHIS web site features a Travelers Tips section and Game and Hunting Trophies section that offers extensive information about bringing food and other products into the country. Many prepared foods are admissible. However, almost anything containing meat products, such as bouillon, soup mixes, etc., is not admissible. As a general rule, condiments, vinegars, oils, packaged spices, honey, coffee and tea are admissible. Because rice can often harbor insects, it is best to avoid bringing it into the United States.
Some imported foods are also subject to requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration

Fruits and Vegetables
Bringing fruits and vegetables can be complicated. For instance, consider the apple you bought in the foreign airport just before boarding and then did not eat? Whether or not CBP will allow the apple into the United States depends on where you got it and where you are going after you arrive in the United States. The same would be true for those magnificent Mediterranean tomatoes. Fresh fruits and vegetables can carry plant pests or diseases into the United States.
One good example of problems imported fruits and vegetables can cause is the Mediterranean fruit fly outbreak during the 1980s, The outbreak cost the state of California and the Federal Government approximately $100 million to get rid of this pest. The cause of the outbreak was one traveler who brought home one contaminated piece of fruit. It is best not to bring fresh fruits or vegetables into the United States. However, if you plan to, contact either CBP or check the Travelers Information section on the USDA-APHIS web site for a general approved list on items that need a permit.


När du kommer till USA ,så gör dem slumpmässigt utagning av passagerare för kontroll vid tullbåsen.
Man kan alltså ha väskan full av äpple ,och klara sig ,eller bli utagen och tvingas bita i det sura äpplet som man säger
