What are the rules for pet plants and food when entering the UK?

The following is an exclusive compilation of the British entry regulations, listing the entry requirements for pets, plants and food, hoping to help readers who are interested in going to the UK.

I. Pets and other animals

Dogs, cats, ferrets, horses

You can bring dogs, cats and ferrets into Britain, as long as you abide by the relevant provisions of the pet travel plan and do not need to be quarantined.

Ma has a similar plan.

Other animals

There are no restrictions on bringing rodents, rabbits, birds, invertebrates, amphibians, reptiles and other pets into Britain from EU countries.

Non-native animals

Bringing non-native animals into Britain must comply with relevant regulations.

Second, plants

You can bring any plant into the UK from EU countries, and the plant must meet the following requirements:

1. Born in an EU country.

2. No pests and diseases

For one's own use

Introduce plants from overseas to Britain.

There are restrictions on bringing implants into the UK from outside the EU. Most products are limited in weight and quantity, or you can't bring them at all unless you have a phytosanitary certificate.

You can apply for a phytosanitary certificate in the phytosanitary department of the country where you are leaving. Holding this certificate means that the plants you are carrying have been inspected and are not affected by dangerous pests and diseases, so they are suitable for entry.

Buy or mail online

When buying plants online in countries or regions outside the EU, it is necessary to verify whether the seller can provide a plant health certificate.

If you buy in EU countries, you don't need a plant health certificate.

The EU also includes Andorra, Canary Islands, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Liechtenstein, San Marino, Norway and Switzerland.

Within the EU

If you come from an EU country, you can bring any fruits, vegetables, meat, dairy products or other livestock products (such as fish, eggs and honey) into the UK.

Outside the EU

Meat, dairy products, potatoes

Outside the EU, you are not allowed to bring meat, meat products, milk, dairy products and potatoes into the UK unless you are in the following countries: Iceland, Faroe Islands and Greenland.

The above countries can carry food within 10 kg.

Fruits and vegetables

You can bring fruits and vegetables (except potatoes) within 2kg into the UK as long as they meet the following requirements:

1. in personal luggage

2. For yourself, family or friends (not allowed to sell)

3. Not affected by dangerous pests and diseases

Eggs, honey, fish

You can bring:

1. Bring products, such as eggs and honey (within 2kg).

2. Fish (less than 20kg or a fish, whichever is the case)

The fish you carry must be fresh, boiled, boiled, fried or smoked.

Punishment and compensation

If you return to the UK from a country or region outside the EU, and you don't declare the foods that you are not allowed to bring, then these foods will be taken away. Therefore, you may face penalties such as delay, accusation and reporting.

If you think that the food you are carrying should not be taken away, you can apply for compensation.
