Is it allowed to carry medicines in hand luggage to or from Myanmar?

Yes, it is allowed, as it is a completely common practice, since there are no prohibitions on transporting medications in hand luggage to/from Myanmar. However, to avoid difficulties, you need to follow a few simple but strict requirements.

Myanmar's customs service and other countries control the import of medications, and here is what you should consider so that your items in the baggage compartment and on your person do not raise unnecessary questions:

• Medications for personal use. You are allowed to transport a volume sufficient for the duration of your trip.
• Keep them in their original packaging. This is the most important rule. Blister packs, bottles, and package inserts must be branded. Medications loose in a bag will lead to immediate questions.
• A doctor's prescription is your key document. If the medication is dispensed by prescription, especially with strong effects, psychotropic or hormonal, be sure to bring a prescription or doctor's note with you, stamped. It is better if it is translated into English. This will prove that the medications are prescribed for your personal use and not for sale.

Also remember the main restriction for carrying in hand luggage: you cannot transport liquid substances in containers over 100 milliliters in the aircraft cabin, this category includes thick substances, liniments, toothpastes, and others. If among your medications there are such, they need to be placed in the baggage compartment.

And finally, do not abuse the quantity and weight of medications, so as not to unintentionally exceed the allowable limits for hand luggage according to your ticket. Most often, you are allowed to transport items in hand luggage with a total weight of no more than 7 kilograms, but this limit may vary for individual airlines and specific fares, so check it according to your ticket before your trip.
