 Importation of methadone and other opioids: possible

 

Bringing methadone or other opioids into Aruba for personal use as medication is possible. However, we are currently checking whether carrying a letter from the prescribing clinic/doctor will do or if a written import approval from the Department of Medications and Drugs of Aruba will be required. As long as we have no reliable information available travellers are advised to ask their travel agencies for clarifying customs regulations well in advance of intended travels to Aruba..

 Any comments and additional information greatly appreciated.
