Full details

Adderall (Medication) is prohibited for travelers entering Kuwait. Kuwait General Administration of Customs screens baggage at all ports of entry; the item is seized regardless of quantity, and depending on item class (narcotic / weapon / counterfeit / cultural-heritage), the traveler may face administrative or criminal penalty under the destination's controlled-substances / customs act. GCC Common Customs Law applies for GCC member states; national restrictions on alcohol / pork / political-religious content are strictly enforced. Personal-import permit pathways exist for medication categories (see Kuwait General Administration of Customs guidance) but do not apply to most prohibited items.

PENALTIES

  • Fine: 5000–5000000 KWD
  • Criminal penalty

Leaving Kuwait with adderall (medication)

RESTRICTEDAdderall (dextroamphetamine/amphetamine mixed salts) is a controlled stimulant in Kuwait and is subject to personal-export limits for prescribed users.

Adderall is a Schedule II controlled substance in the US and equivalent schedules in most other jurisdictions. Personal-use quantities (typically a 30-90 day supply) accompanied by the prescription and doctor's letter are generally permitted for export under Law No. 74 of 1983 on narcotic drugs. Above these limits, a Ministry of Health (Kuwait) authorisation is required in advance. Destination-country rules on Adderall import are more restrictive in many jurisdictions (Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, UAE, Saudi Arabia).

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Do not carry Adderall (Medication) into Kuwait. If you arrive with the item by accident, surrender at the Red Channel for seizure-only treatment rather than walking the Green Channel — the latter is treated as deliberate smuggling. Contact Kuwait General Administration of Customs via https://www.customs.gov.kw/ for current personal-import policy if your situation is exceptional (medical / diplomatic).
