Can I Carry a Pickle (achaar) on a Flight in India?

Last updated: 6 Jul 2026Reviewed by Ms. Rubab Nizami, Lead AVSEC Faculty

In short

You can carry a pickle (achaar) in cabin baggage within limits. Pickle contains oil and liquid, so small containers up to 100ml are allowed in the cabin, while larger jars should go in checked baggage. Seal jars in a leak-proof bag to protect other baggage.
