Medical supplies
If you’re planning to travel to the UK, you should make sure you take all the necessary medical supplies with you. Some medicines are controlled in the UK and you may need an export licence to take them with you. This licence is usually needed for three months’ worth of medication and larger supplies. If you’re unsure, ask your embassy for more information.
Taking medication with you on travel can be a stressful experience, so make sure you have a plan to transport it safely. If you don’t know the laws on bringing medicine abroad, you can get into trouble. There are many rules and regulations that must be followed, and you could even face accusations of conspiracy to import drugs.
