About Yogurt

Fresh yogurt is generally prohibited or restricted due to short shelf life and bacteria content (even beneficial probiotics). Shelf-stable, sealed yogurt products may be allowed in some countries. Dried yogurt products or yogurt powder face fewer restrictions. Always declare yogurt products at customs as they are considered dairy.

📝 Important Notes

  • Commercially packaged dairy products for personal consumption are allowed. Must be declared. Whatever you bring back must be on SFA’s list of food allowed into Singapore and from approved sources, and each traveller is subject to SFA’s private-consumption limit for the relevant food category. It is strictly for your own consumption and may not be sold; to bring in more than the allowance, apply for an import licence or permit.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Does Yogurt need to be vacuum-sealed for entry?

Vacuum sealing can significantly reduce the risk of confiscation, especially for meat or dried products. Additionally, Yogurt with complete commercial labeling and ingredient lists is more likely to pass inspection.

What should I consider when bringing Yogurt?

The most important thing when bringing Yogurt is to confirm if it exceeds the duty-free allowance or declaration threshold of your destination. It's recommended to keep purchase receipts and ensure Yogurt is in its original packaging for easier customs inspection. If the Yogurt is of high value, always use the red declaration channel.
