Coming to Australia with medicines and medical devices
There are rules about bringing medicines and medical devices into Australia. Many medicines and medical devices can be brought with you into Australia as long as they are for your personal use. Some require a permit and others cannot be brought with you at all.
International visitors and people coming back from holidays can bring in most medicines and medical devices under the traveller's exemption.
It is against the law to bring medicines and medical devices into Australia to give to someone else.
There are also special rules for athletes and sporting teams
Traveller's Exemption
The traveller's exemption allows people entering Australia to carry their medicines and medical devices with them for their own personal use or the use by an immediate family member who is travelling with them, such as an infant.
Follow these simple rules to make sure you don't get caught up at the border:
Don't bring medicines or medical devices into Australia for anyone other than yourself or an immediate family member.
For prescription medicines, we recommend you carry a prescription or letter from your doctor with you. The prescription or letter should outline what you are taking and how much you are bringing with you.
Keep the original packaging for your medicines and medical devices intact so they can be easily identified.
Do not bring more than a 3 month supply with you.
Check what medicines need to be declared at the border at the Department of Home Affairs website on the Can you bring it in? - external site webpage. You must declare any medicines which may be subject to abuse or misuse. This includes steroids, strong pain medicines, cannabis and other restricted medicines.
Injections that contain material of human or animal origin, such as growth hormone, require special permission to bring into the country. An Australian doctor must organise access for you through the Special Access Scheme. You do not need permission to bring insulin with you for personal use.
You should check the list of substances which are subject to import controls - external site as certain items require permission from the Office of Drug Control to bring to Australia.
Herbal and traditional medicine products
Herbal and traditional medicine products
Be careful when bringing herbal and traditional medicines with you to Australia. The Australian Border Force need to be able to identify what the substances are, so that they can determine if the products are subject to any import restrictions - external site. Additionally they may contain ingredients from endangered plants which are subject to import controls and require a permit. This includes Hoodia and weight loss products derived from Hoodia. Find out more at the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment website - external site.

Maintain a record of the medicines and their use while the team is in Australia. This list must be produced if requested by an Australian Border Force officer.
