GOODS ACROSS BORDERS
DEPARTURE RULE🇸🇬 SINGAPORE

Taking kratom out of Singapore

STATUS · PROHIBITED

Kratom is a controlled substance in Singapore — possession is unlawful, so there is no lawful personal export.

Details

Singapore controls kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) under its drugs legislation (Misuse of Drugs Act 1973; HSA personal-export permit). Because possession is unlawful, there is no personal-export pathway — kratom found at departure screening is seized and the traveller risks prosecution. Most neighbouring and destination jurisdictions also control kratom; do not carry it across any border without verifying both sides.
