Can I take Adderall to Singapore?

Singapore's official guidance indicates you need advance approval (a permit) before arriving with Adderall. Review the requirements and apply in good time.

Permit or advance approval required

Last checked 2 Aug 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 Singapore 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 Singapore.

The rules for Adderall (mixed amphetamine salts)

Controlled drug under Singapore's Misuse of Drugs Act (Second/Third Schedule). HSA prior approval is required before travel: apply at least 2 weeks ahead, for up to 3 months' supply. Carry your prescription and keep medicine in original packaging. Not a Fourth Schedule prohibited substance. A foreign prescription alone is not enough; HSA approval is required.

Maximum supply: 90 days (Up to 3 months' supply with HSA prior approval)

What to do

  1. valid prescription
  2. doctor's letter
  3. pharmacy-dispensed label on the medicine container
  4. travel itinerary
  5. approval letter issued by the Health Sciences Authority (HSA): apply before travel
