The limit for liquids in cabin baggage is 100 ml per container. All your bottles of creams, gels, perfumes or aerosols must have a maximum capacity of 100 ml.
You must place these containers in a single transparent, resealable plastic bag with a capacity of 1 liter. This bag must be presented at airport security.
These rules apply only to cabin baggage. There is no limit on liquids in checked baggage.
Exceptions to the 100 ml rule
Drugs
Tablets and capsules are unrestricted. For syrups, creams, or gels, you can exceed 100 ml if you have a prescription in your name. Keep them in their original packaging and preferably pack them in your carry-on to avoid problems related to pressure in the hold.
Baby food
You can bring infant formula, puree and other baby food in the necessary quantity, without respecting the 100ml limit. Present them at the checkpoint for inspection.
Duty free purchase
Products purchased after security checks may exceed 100 ml if they remain in the sealed bag provided by the store and are accompanied by the receipt. Do not open the bag until you reach your destination.
Prepare your liquids
Choosing the right containers
Choose clear, airtight, and durable bottles with a maximum capacity of 100 ml. Travel kits with compliant small bottles are convenient and available in pharmacies or airport shops.
Use the plastic bag
The bag must be transparent, resealable, and no larger than 1 liter (approximately 20 x 20 cm). You may only present one bag at the checkpoint. Seal it securely to prevent leaks and facilitate passage.
Tips for traveling light
Solid alternatives
Replace liquids with shampoo bars, solid toothpaste or compact soaps to save space and avoid restrictions.
Organization
Always place your bag of liquids at the top of your carry-on luggage. Use mini sizes, samples, or multi-purpose products to limit the number of bottles.
