ALLOWED
No restrictions on energy drinks
Details
The US has no restrictions on energy drink imports for personal use. All major energy drink brands are widely available domestically. No caffeine content limits for imported beverages. Check with destination customs authority for current regulations before traveling or shipping. Rules change frequently and enforcement varies.
Practical advice
Personal-quantity energy drinks (a 24-can case or under) clear CBP without comment. Ingredients exceeding local regulator limits on taurine, guarana, or vitamin fortification may trigger food-safety review on bulk imports.
