Taking 400 ml mustard oil in checked in luggage to Slovenia - Three Boy's Standing Holding Branches

In light of the edible mustard oil ban in EU, can I still take 400ml mustard oil in checked-in baggage? I am traveling from India.



Best Answer

The EU legislation applies specifically to mustard oils with an erucic acid content of over 5%:

So if you can find some mustard oil with 5% or less, you can import it legally. This may be hard to find in India though, since mustard oil is typically ~40%, but low-acid blends are now available for sale in the UK:
