With immediate effect, new regulations have been introduced across Europe governing the way that duty free liquids, prescribed medications and baby food liquids are screened at security.
The key benefit for customers is that Duty Free liquids purchased from any airport (including non EU airports) may now be taken through UK security screening points, provided it is in a Security Tamper-proof Evidence Bag (STEB) with the receipt sealed inside the bag. This applies to both transfer and direct Passengers. Hence, customers are able to purchase Duty Free even if taken landside providing they are in a STEB.
