United Arab Emirates travel insurance FAQs
Which medications are banned in the UAE?
Codeine, tramadol, some sleeping tablets and ADHD medications, and anything containing CBD are controlled substances. Carry a doctor's letter and original packaging, and check the UAE Ministry of Health list before you pack — penalties for carrying controlled medication without approval are serious.
