Thank God I saw this, I had already packed Maggi chicken. It's not worth the risk of thinking some POE allow. It's just 500naira. It's not worth coming back home for or paying a fine of like $50.lol. DeeTus and Lagosismyhome you just saved me stress. Thanks. grin


You can also go with boiled groundnut grin grin

Hello e-family I just arrived US couple of hours ago via Qatar airways my journey was smooth and Qatar airways is top notch with their service I got to point of entry which has been my biggest fear while planning my journey and imagine I did not use a min with the cbp office really cool my interview with him goes does:
Me: good morning (and I passed my passport and the form I filled on board)
Cbp: why are you here
Me: i'm here for schooling
Cbp:can I have your i20 and how long will you be staying
Me: (passed my i20) 3years
Cbp: what course will you be doing
Me: associate degree in engineering
And after that I did my bio capture....all this was less than a min tho and I got stamp and off to take my luggage.... I'm currently on a greyhound bus connecting to Maryland....
For people who will be traveling soon have no fear point of entry is not that serious just say what you are here for and you are good and carry plenty 9ja food ooo. I brought a full pack of indomi hungry man noodles and other food items....Good luck to me on my new journey

Many agriculture products are prohibited entry into the United States from certain countries because they may carry plant pests and foreign animal diseases. All agriculture items must be declared and are subject to inspection by a CBP Agriculture Specialist at ports of entry to ensure they are free of plant pests and foreign animal diseases. Prohibited or restricted items may include meats, fresh fruits and vegetables, plants, seeds, soil and products made from animal or plant materials.

Thanks for the valuable info.

In 2015, I could have been fined at Hartsfield Jackson, ATL, but the apples were confiscated. I was surprised that one of the two officers there was a Yoruba man and spoke Yoruba to me despite his American accent, and the other white man asked if I had Garri. Well, I entered without hitches and upon arrival, I discovered that I still took in some apples I had in my hand luggage that they didn't search....hmmmmm.

Funny enough, I never went back to check or ask why vegetables are not allowed until now. Thanks for the info again.

To all those who have flown recently, can we carry our laptop in the hand luggage? I know the US banned laptops in hand luggage and restricted it to the check-in bag.

I'm flying EgyptAir and want to know if this order is still in place. Thank you
