CBP Offers Travel Tips for the Holiday Season

CBP’s Newsroom issued a release this week offering travel tips for those going to and from foreign countries. These tips include:

  • Do not attempt to bring fruits, meats, dairy/poultry products and/or firewood into the United States without first checking whether they are permitted. For more information, please visit the “Bringing Agricultural Products Into the United States” section of the CBP website.
  • Know the difference between prohibited merchandise (which is forbidden by law to enter the U.S.) and restricted merchandise (items needing special permit to be allowed into the U.S.). For more information, please visit the “Restricted/Prohibited” section of the CBP website.
  • Familiarize yourself with the “Know Before You Go” brochure or section of the CBP website.
