All things Dubai

Dubai and medication.

Thought I would post here to.

If your medication is on the narcotic, controlled or semi controlled uae government list you need to apply online for pre approval of the meds.

You can find a guide and the list here:
government.ae/en/informa...led-medicines-

You can only apply for the time you are in the country, so if you’re going for 7 days you can only apply for 7 days worth.

The online form is here:
mohap.gov.ae/en/services/Pages/361.aspx

Click go to eservice to apply.

You need to register, including passport details. Then you can start an application.

It’s pretty straightforward and they get back to you quickly (next day for me), but it took a week for them to approve mine, went back and forth 6 times and two phone calls. So give yourself plenty time.

Once approved you get a document that states you have approval and what for.

Hope this helps, it was a bit confusing at first for me.
