Medicine, healthcare products and cosmetic products
If you are a traveler who wants to bring medications into Spain, find out about the requirements
The entry of medicines, medical devices and cosmetic products carried by travellers for their own use shall not be subject to prior sanitary intervention, although this may be carried out when, due to their quantity or their destination, it is advisable to do so.
Current national legislation allows travelers to carry their personal medication, although the traveler must prove that the medications are intended for their own administration or treatment. Proof that the medicines are intended for the traveler's own administration or treatment can be provided, for example, by means of the prescription or medical report.
Travelers who have questions regarding this matter can obtain information at the centers dependent on Pharmaceutical Inspection Services of the Health and Social Policy Areas of the Government Delegations and Subdelegations, which are entrusted with this competence.
