New EU Security Rules at Airports for liquids in hand baggage

The European Union (EU) has adopted new security rules which restrict the amount of liquids that you may take into your hand luggage. 


Such liquids include: 

   All drinks, including water, soup, syrups, yoghurt
   Creams, lotions, oils, perfumes, liquid gloss or mascara and other liquid cosmetic products 
   Sprays and pressurized containers including shaving foam and spray deodorants 
   Pastes, including toothpaste 
   Gels, including hair and shower gel 
   Any other solutions and items of similar consistency 



These rules apply to all passengers departing from airports in the EU whatever their destination.

These liquids must be packed in individual containers with a maximum capacity of 100 milliliters each. The maximum quantity allowed is 1,000 ml (1 liter) per person. These containers must be packed in a single, transparent re-sealable plastic bag (approximate size 20 cm x 20 cm). The contents of the plastic bag must fit comfortably and the bag sealed. Each passenger may carry only one such bag of liquids.
It is mandatory that you present this bag separately to the airport security.


The new rules do not limit the quantities of liquids that you can buy from duty free sales at the airport. These liquids must be kept in sealable plastic packages before they are screened, including proof of purchase at the given airport on the day of the flight.
 
In case you wish to transport larger amounts of liquids, you should carry them in the checked baggage.

Attention! If the liquids carried in your hand baggage exceed the limit allowed or if they are carried in an unsealed bag, the items will be confiscated by the security officers.

If you come from a non-EU country, entering an EU country, you will have to submit to EU rules. You will not be allowed more than 1000 ml liquids in your hand baggage, transported in the conditions mentioned above. If you buy liquids after you have passed the security check (which is situated in the "sterile zone"), you are allowed to carry them in your hand baggage. 

Exceptions: The following items you may transport outside the plastic bag as hand baggage:

   Liquid baby food or sterilized water (if traveling together with a baby or a little child)
   Special liquid dietary nutrition (e.g. for medical purposes)
   Medication (for your entire journey, including stay at destination)
