Can I bring medicines into Sri Lanka through the airport?

Travellers are able to bring prescription medicines into Sri Lanka for personal use, as long as the quantity does not exceed a 90-day supply. You need to carry the medication in the original packaging, with a valid prescription or a letter from your doctor.

Also, when you carry psychiatric medications, powerful pain relievers, or narcotics, you should be extra careful. Make sure these are clearly described in your medical papers, because customs officers may closely examine these goods to avoid illegal drug trafficking.
