Fresh Fruit → Germany

EU phytosanitary rules apply from non-EU

Details

Within the EU single market, fresh fruit moves freely. From non-EU countries, phytosanitary regulations apply. Most commercially available fruit is from approved sources but personal quantities from non-EU origins may require inspection. Citrus from some countries faces specific restrictions (citrus canker).

Quantity limit

EU: unrestricted. Non-EU: subject to inspection

Legal reference

EU Regulation 2016/2031 (Plant Health)

Practical advice

Within EU: no restrictions. From non-EU: commercially packaged fruit usually fine. Exotic or homegrown fruit may be inspected.
