Is it allowed to carry medicinal products in hand luggage to or from Macedonia?

Yes, it is allowed, this is a completely common practice, as there are no established prohibitions on carrying medications in hand luggage to/from Macedonia. But to avoid difficulties, you need to adhere to a few simple but strict rules.

Macedonian customs and other countries control the import of medicinal products, and here is what is important to remember so that your registered luggage and hand luggage do not raise unnecessary questions:

• Medications for yourself. You can carry the necessary amount for the period of stay.
• Keep in original packaging. This is a key requirement. Blister packs, bottles, and package inserts must be from the manufacturer. Medications loose in a bag will immediately raise suspicions.
• A doctor's prescription is your main document. If the medication is dispensed by prescription, especially powerful, psychotropic, or hormonal, be sure to bring a prescription or a doctor's note, certified with a stamp. It is better if it is translated into English. This will confirm that the medications are intended for your own needs, not for sale.

Also remember the key rule for carrying in hand luggage: it is prohibited to carry liquids in containers larger than 100 ml in hand luggage, this category includes cream-like products, ointments, toothpaste, and similar items. If among your medications there are such, they need to be placed in checked luggage.

And finally, be moderate with the volume and weight of medications, so as not to accidentally exceed the allowable limits for hand luggage according to your airline ticket. Typically, you are allowed to carry items in hand luggage with a total weight of no more than 7 kilograms, but this norm may vary among different carriers and different fare plans, so check it according to your airline ticket before departure.
