Question

What is the maximum limit for import of single drug for personal use as part of bonafide baggage of a passenger?

• A. \( 100 \)
• B. \( 150 \)
• C. \( 200 \)
• D. \( \text{No limit} \)

Hint:

Think of "personal use" and a reasonable short-term supply when considering the limit – around a few strips or bottles, typically not exceeding 100 units for a single medication.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

As per the regulations governing the import of drugs for personal use as part of a passenger's bonafide baggage in India, the maximum limit for importing a single drug is generally up to 100 dosage units (e.g., tablets, capsules) or a quantity that does not exceed 30 days' supply, whichever is less. This is subject to certain conditions, including the passenger declaring the drugs to customs and providing a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner. The exact rules can be subject to updates and specific circumstances, but 100 dosage units is a commonly cited limit for single drugs.
