What is contraband when entering an American airport?

Generally, you don't have to declare personal belongings, such as your PSP.

There will be a declaration form when you enter the customs. Answer according to the above questions. If the money does not exceed the standard, you don't have to report it. If it exceeds the standard, you will declare it. The United States does not limit how much you can bring, but only requires you to declare it when it exceeds the standard and will not confiscate it. If you don't ask about the things on the declaration form, you don't have to be wordy. For example, your toner is fine.

There are passengers in China who carry prohibited articles through the customs without being inspected, which gives people the wrong understanding that the US Customs does not inspect articles. In fact, the US Customs only checks passengers' belongings, not does not check them. If you bring prohibited parts or fail to declare them, the consequences will be quite serious.

The US Customs has two completely different attitudes towards D-version CD-ROM. The main criterion is whether the copyright of CD-ROM belongs to American companies. For example, if a passenger carries a D version of the windows operating system CD, the US Customs will severely punish the carrier after discovering it, while if the copyright of the D version of the CD carried by the passenger does not belong to a US company, the US Customs will turn a blind eye. If you want to bring the D version CD into the United States, the easiest way is to remove the outer packaging of the CD. The US Customs will not run the CDs one by one, so there is no way to know the contents of the CDs.

The US Customs also has strict regulations on the food carried by passengers, requiring them to declare some restricted items. After the declaration, it is found that passengers carrying prohibited items have no criminal responsibility and will not be fined.

US Customs prohibits passengers from carrying all kinds of meat, including chicken, duck, pork, beef and mutton, and even all kinds of products containing meat, such as beef jerky, moon cakes and dumplings with meat stuffing, ham sausage products, canned meat and so on. There are many meat products sold in the United States, and the prices are not much different from those in China. You can buy them locally without taking the risk of bringing them from China.

Some people say that the United States Customs does not restrict all fish products, even fresh fish can be carried through customs at will. That's what customs officials said when they went through Canada and the United States before. But there is also a saying that fish (such as salted fish) can't be brought.

Basically, many kinds of foods of China people, including meat (such as dried pork and sausages), fish (such as salted fish), milk and eggs, are not allowed to be brought into this country. In addition, bird's nest is also banned.

US Customs does not allow passengers to carry fresh fruits and fruit products, but does not restrict the carrying of sealed fruits, dried fruits and products. Generally speaking, all kinds of fruit products produced by manufacturers have formal packaging. So if you want to bring it, buy it in factory packaging, not in bulk.

The United States Customs does not restrict the carrying of fungal food, including mushrooms, fungi and other products. Dry goods such as mushrooms, laver and abalone commonly used in Chinese cooking can be carried in small quantities.

Fresh and live plants and vegetables are also not allowed.

In addition, if you bring something that is not available or rare in the United States, you can also declare it as a free gift, because the US Customs cannot determine its price. If the total price does not exceed 400 dollars, it will be fine. You don't have to declare anything that will be taken out of the United States again.

US Customs does not restrict passengers from consigning knives, but it is not allowed to carry knives such as kitchen knives and fruit knives on the plane, which can be solved by consignment.

Guns are absolutely not allowed to be carried, whether they are real guns or not, even plastic guns for children's toys are forbidden to be carried and checked.

You are free to carry normal drugs, but drugs such as anesthetics or sleeping pills are difficult to pass the inspection.

Never take drugs with you, and never touch them anywhere, even in China.

In addition, things and products related to extinct animals cannot be brought, such as ivory products.
