Customs & Packing
Check herbal materials and preparations separately
Personal-use limits differ between raw Chinese medicinal materials and preparations; ingredient restrictions still apply even with prescriptions.
Travel question: Check herbal materials and preparations separately
Do not mix up per-item, total-type, container and treatment-period limits. Animal or plant ingredients and controlled drugs may need separate approval.
Why is this rule in place?
Medicine, quarantine and protected-species rules can overlap.
What should travelers do?
Carry original packaging, ingredients and prescriptions. Ask Customs, TFDA and quarantine in advance for larger quantities or animal ingredients.
