Can I take Adderall to France?

Official guidance indicates France restricts how much Adderall (mixed amphetamine salts) you can bring and the paperwork required. Check the limits before you travel.

Restricted: limits on quantity and paperwork

Last checked 18 Jul 2026High confidenceHow we rate a record

A limit of our data: Adderall (mixed amphetamine salts) and Dexamphetamine are different medicines. Adderall is a mix of dextroamphetamine and levoamphetamine; dexamfetamine is dextroamphetamine on its own, and international drug schedules list them as separate substances. We hold one combined amphetamine rule per country, so this page cannot tell you whether France treats them differently. Give the authority the exact product and generic name on your prescription when you check. The answer here is the same as for Dexamphetamine in France.

The rules for Adderall (mixed amphetamine salts)

France classes amfetamine and dexamfetamine as stupéfiants (ANSM list, Annexe III). Carry them yourself with the original prescription, up to the treatment length on the prescription and no more than 28 days. No French attestation is needed to bring them in. Adderall is not marketed in France.

Maximum supply: 28 days (The treatment length on the prescription, and no more than 28 days (maximum prescription length for stupéfiants, Public Health Code article R5132-30).)

What to do

  1. original, valid prescription (not a copy), to show customs on request
  2. Schengen Article 75 certificate (for Schengen residents)
