Nicholas Lyons+FollowEU’s New Banned List: What Not to Pack!Plot twist for your next Euro trip: the EU just updated its banned items list for US and Canadian travelers.

Even your pet needs a microchip and paperwork. Basically, double-check what’s in your suitcase or risk a customs drama at the border.
