Kefir - bringing it INTO Thailand through Suvarnabhumi - Is that legal?

Featured Replies

I use kefir grains, in milk, for my health. I wish to bring these into Thailand when I arrive by plane.

If I declare that I have these (I would be carrying them in a sandwich bag on my person), can I legally bring them in through Suvarnabhumi

airport?

Thanks in advance.

No idea about the legality.

But honestly you would be the unlucky guy of the month to be fined for bringing in kefir grains.

Don't declare.

If they stop a farang at all, then they hope to find excessive amount of liquor, cigarettes etc.

What nationality/ethnic are you?

Sorry sounds racist, but thats one of the criteria to be stopped by customs.

I'm from Australia.

I hope you get more response, but I can only repeat don't worry. Go through the green channel.

I'm with the guy that said don't declare it. Why raise a red flag? If you don't want to bother, get here, then PM me and I'll send you some.

The customs most likely would not know what it is,then the hassles will begin.

just walk on bye,

You will likely have more trouble with the airport security at your departure location (and any transfer airports).

Mysterious substance in plastic bag being carried on! Pack it in your checked baggage and don't worry about it.
