Frequently asked questions
Can I take olive oil from Germany to Belgium?
Olive oil: Düsseldorf has a recorded 100ml source check; other German airports aren't confirmed here, so pack to 100ml as a conservative fallback unless your departure airport confirms more. At a 100ml checkpoint a standard 500ml or 1L bottle of olive oil won't pass cabin security. The cabin rule at the departure airport in Germany is what matters.
Can I pack olive oil in cabin baggage?
Düsseldorf has a recorded 100ml source check; other German airports aren't confirmed here, so pack to 100ml as a conservative fallback unless your departure airport confirms more. At a 100ml checkpoint a standard 500ml or 1L bottle of olive oil won't pass cabin security.
Can I put olive oil in checked luggage?
Pack bottles in checked luggage, sealed in a plastic bag in case of leaks. Checked luggage avoids the cabin liquid limit, but it doesn't change customs or food-import rules at your destination.
Is olive oil subject to the 100ml liquids rule?
As conservative packing advice for olive oil, use containers of 100ml (3.4oz) or smaller in a clear resealable bag (quart-size at US checkpoints, usually 1L elsewhere). Check your departure airport's current liquid rules before flying; some airports allow larger containers, and otherwise larger containers may need checked luggage.
