The rules for Dexamphetamine (dexamfetamine)
Carry the original valid medical prescription; INFARMED's current INCB submission does not name individual drugs but sets a blanket 30-day supply limit for psychotropic substances under Article 13 of Decree-Law No. 15/93 of 22 January, so amphetamine/dexamfetamine falls under this generic 30-day/prescription rule. No certificate or destination-country permit is required per this source, only the prescription itself.
Maximum supply: 30 days (Blanket 30-day supply cap for psychotropic substances (Article 13, Decree-Law 15/93))
What to do
- valid prescription
- Schengen certificate (for Schengen travel). This is issued by your own country of residence and only covers travel between Schengen countries, so if you are flying in from Australia you cannot get one and do not need it.
