Medication Permit Request
Bringing Prescription Medication to Thailand?
If you’re planning to bring prescription medication into Thailand, it’s important to know that some medicines require prior approval from Thai authorities. Failing to obtain the necessary permits can result in delays or confiscation at customs.

You’ll also need to apply for a Medication Import Permit from the Thai Food and Drug Administration (FDA) at least 14 days before your arrival.
