no fruits or vegitables allowed as for the dried fish i heard some got to bring it and others no. put the dried fish in your checked luggage not carry on. but as for fruits and veggy no you can not bring

You can bring dried fish and squid to US..have it vacuum packed so it won't smell.

You're not supposed to be allowed to bring many meat products - not that many haven't though. Here's the CBP list so you can check it out for yourself.

Fish is not meat in a regulatory sense. Canned meat such as corned beef is not allowed but canned fish, such as squid, centruy tuna, mackerel is allowed. They have always allowed my aunt through ag inspection with dried fish, and we bring in canned fish.

True - if a dog can sniff it out you may lose it.

HI there,

My wife brought in a lot of dried fish and squid and had no t problems at POE. They did not open her bags nor they asked her anything about whats in them.

I've also brough dried fish many times on my checked in baggages with no problem.

I think you'll be fine. Just make sure you pack them really tight so your other stuff wont smell in your luggage.
