Guidance for Visitors to Singapore (Regulatory Requirements for Bringing Personal Medicines into Singapore)

If your medicines contain any controlled substance listed in Appendix A, you are required to apply for a controlled substance permit from the Centre for Drug Administration (CDA), Health Sciences Authority, Singapore, before your travel to Singapore.
If your medicines do not contain any controlled substance listed in Appendix A, you may bring quantities not exceeding 3 months supply with you without seeking prior approval from CDA. However, you are required to have the necessary supporting documents namely, a letter from your doctor and/or a copy of the prescription with you as proof that the medicines are for your personal use.
