The UK government has enacted temporary restrictions preventing travelers from EU and EFTA countries from bringing in meat and dairy products to avert a potential spread of foot-and-mouth disease. This ban covers all types of meat, including cured meats, cheeses, and milk, even when packaged as sandwiches. Violators risk fines and items seized upon entry. The measures follow a recent outbreak in Germany, signaling heightened biosecurity efforts to protect UK livestock from the disease, which has not been seen on British soil in recent years.
