I want to take some food to Korea in a couple of days. What can't I take?

Hello! Thank you for your question. Carrying food is a common demand when traveling, but different countries and airlines may have different regulations on carrying food. Before going to Korea, I suggest you know about the relevant regulations for entering Korea to ensure that you can bring the right food on the plane smoothly.

Generally speaking, foods that can be carried are mainly divided into three categories: non-liquid, liquid and packaged foods.

First, non-liquid food. This kind of food includes dried fruits, nuts, chocolates, biscuits and so on. You can put them in your hand luggage without too many restrictions. However, please note that if it is perishable food such as meat and seafood, it is recommended that you choose vacuum packaging or sealed packaging to avoid odor or dripping.

Followed by liquid food. According to the security regulations, the liquid capacity of each bottle should not exceed 100 ml, and all bottles must be put in transparent plastic bags. These plastic bags are usually provided by security checkpoints, or you can prepare them yourself. So, if you plan to bring some liquid food, such as sauces, condiments or drinks, please make sure that the capacity of each bottle does not exceed 100 ml and put it in a transparent plastic bag.

Finally, packaged food. This kind of food refers to food that has been sealed or packaged, such as canned food, bagged snacks and instant noodles. You can put it in your luggage without too many restrictions.

It is worth noting that some special foods may be restricted or prohibited from being carried on the plane, such as liquid alcohol, flammable substances, knives, etc. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, please consult the airline or check the relevant regulations before departure to ensure that the food you bring meets the requirements.

Finally, I want to emphasize once again that you must pay attention to the relevant regulations and requirements when you enter Korea, and make a detailed understanding before you leave. Have a nice trip!
