美國旅遊達人帶一粒蘋果返美忘申報遭海關攔截重罰300美元,更因1身份需多繳500美元!
@discoverwithdina DON’T make this mistake! “I could fine you $500 right now and revoke your global entry” I was standing there waiting for my luggage and a Customs & Border Control Officer came up to me, saying the K9 is smelling food and asking me if I had anything. Shoot… I forgot I had an apple on me from Amsterdam that I was supposed to declare at customs. They took my passport and went through all my bags. He said if I had lied about the Apple, I would’ve gotten a $300 fine. Then I could’ve gotten another $500 fine for actually having the apple and Global Entry because you’re held to a higher standard. Be sure to declare these upon arrival: - Purchases over $800 - Cash including travelers checks over $10,000 - ALL food, plants, and animal products. - Check the full restricted/ prohibited items list to be safe at [cbp.gov](http://cbp.gov/) When in doubt, declare it to avoid fines and confiscation. Thankfully I was given a warning because this is my first offense but this was a reminder to take it seriously. I genuinely forgot about the apple and declaring it wasn’t top of mind since they stopped having you fill out those forms on the plane. I also didn’t know you are supposed to declare all food, even if it’s processed. Don’t forget this next time you fly internationally & share with a friend ✈ #globalentry #travelers #travelersoftiktok #cbp #traveltip ♬ DIM - Yves
旅遊達人遭檢疫犬查出攜帶食物
綜合外媒報導,美國北卡羅來納州一名旅遊達人「狄娜」(Dina)日前在TikTok上發佈短片親述在美國機場遭重罰的經歷。她表示,當天結束荷蘭的旅程返回美國時,於機場行李轉盤區等候期間突被一名海關人員與邊境保護局官員詢問指,檢疫犬嗅出了食物的氣味,要求她回想是否攜帶食物入境。

帶蘋果未申報 旅遊達人護照被扣行李搜查
狄娜這才驚覺,自己離開阿姆斯特丹時將一顆蘋果放進了行李內,結果忘了在入境時申報,「我應該在海關申報」。狄娜透露,海關當場沒收了她的護照,並徹查了她的行李。

旅遊達人遭重罰800美元
最終,狄娜遭海關重罰300元(美元,下同,約2400港元)。由於她享有可快速通關的「全球入境計劃」(Global Entry)會員身分,因此必須額外繳交500美元(約3900港元)罰款,讓她損失慘重,對此呼籲其他旅客務必謹慎遵守申報規定,避免重蹈覆轍。
