Compare this activity in other countries
This makes the rule page useful for comparison without creating a second data source.
Albania
Albania Customs states that the import, export or transit of narcotics, narcotic medicaments and psychotropic substances is prohibited. That makes bringing medical cannabis into Albania unsafe to treat as lawful on a general traveler basis.
Argentina
Argentina allows patients to request ANMAT authorization to import a cannabinoid or cannabis-derived product needed for treatment when it is not marketed in Argentina. Official guidance says the import route is tied to medical indication and the exception-access regime.
Austria
Austria allows travellers to enter with certain medicines for personal use, including controlled medicines, but the official health guidance imposes document and quantity limits.
Azerbaijan
Azerbaijan Customs says narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, their precursors and tools intended for their use are prohibited from being brought into the country.
