Advice on taking foodstuffs to spain please? |
Travel Info my mum is going to alacante in spain from the uk next week and is planning to take bacon and bread with her. i told her i think this is illegal but she says she's taking it anyway.does anyone know the law on this matter. Travel Tips She won't get the bacon into the country if customs search her - not allowed. If caught she could be fined - not worth it - they do have nice bacon over there anyway. Allowed items - Pasta, Tinned produce, Bread, things like that NO FRESH PRODUCE - vegetables etc , meat. Others don't you worry. bring sausages etc with you, mum. only no bird meat. friend of mine from ire brings his son in valencia every month what he misses from back home in spain traveling at the moment 1) It's illegal, she will get it confiscated PLUS a fine. 2) Spain is very cosmopolitan, you can get everything from Kellogg's cornflakes to MacDonald's. She can buy what she wants in any local supermarket in Spain, why carry it all the way there in a suitcase? plenty supermarkets over there,she doesent need to take anything.plus food is cheaper. Best thing to do would be to phone the airline and ask them your mum can get ti all here. Tell her to go to the nearest supersol supermarket. they sell british bacon, pork sausages, kingsmill, warbutons bread etc... they have it all in spain. it's not like it was 20 yrs ago. bacon will not be allowed in the country she will get fined. they can be quite hefty |
