Is it legal to bring a Jamon Iberico from Spain into the UK, passing through France?
I have not tried this in the past, but I am guessing that since all countries involved are part of the EU, it should be possible.
I am planning to fly from Barcelona to Paris, after which I will take the Eurostar to London. Will there be any point on the way where I might suffer any problems during the import?
Best Answer
Yes you can import some meat (including ham) to the UK from Spain, going through France. Both France and the UK have documents provided by their customs on the topic about food imports:
