Full details

Thailand permits travelers to bring personal insulin supplies with a prescription. Insulin is widely available and affordable in Thailand without prescription at pharmacies (a major medical tourism destination). Syringes and lancets are also freely available.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

No special procedure is required for personal quantities of insulin arriving in Thailand. Quantities above duty-free allowances must still be declared. Verify current limits with Thai Customs Department.
