Legal position

Current starter summary

Montenegro allows a traveller to carry a medicine that contains a narcotic drug only for up to 30 days of personal therapy and only with the required doctor or specialist certificate.

Conditions

What would need to be true

Carry only the quantity needed for up to 30 days and keep a doctor or specialist certificate issued not more than 90 days before entry.

Exceptions

Known carve-outs or edge cases

Ordinary medicines for personal use have a broader allowance, but narcotic-drug medicines face the stricter certificate and quantity rules.

Penalties

Penalty snapshot

Montenegro Customs says possession without the required document or failure to declare the medicine is a misdemeanour and the medicine is confiscated or kept under customs supervision.

Enforcement

How this may be enforced

Customs officers can inspect the medicine, check the certificate, require declaration, and seize non-compliant narcotic medicines.

Why the page is intentionally light

The new site should show a stable layout, a stable route, and clear source slots before the dataset is scaled up again. That keeps management simple and makes later official-source population safer.
