Is it legal to send soda to another country?

Question

I'm wanting to send my friend in Northern Ireland some mountain dew (they don't have it there). Is it legal for me to send it? should i send bottles or cans?

Answer 1

You probably can but you will need to check with the NI government website to see what is allowed and what isn't.

Many countries have very strict biosecurity laws, but for Mountain Dew I can't see that as being a problem.

Answer 2

normally i would think that is a weird question.....but my friend just told me she almost got arrested for bringing beef jerky to Australia!  

Answer 3

You cannot mail anything where the contents are under pressure.

But I have heard of people sending it on ebay.

If you want to anyway, I would use cans.

They are less likely to burst in intense-ish weathers.

(Bottles of soda explode in the cold.)

Answer 4

yes it is legal in Northern Ireland. Before you send the bottles, ask the post office worker if it's ok to send filled bottles from that office.

good luck =]
