Yes, but pay attention to the following points.

According to the general rule of Polish legislation, it is allowed to import medicine for personal needs in an amount that does not exceed the five smallest packages. BUT, if you import prescription drugs to Poland, the Ministry of Health of this country recommends that you bring a document that confirms such a need. It may be:

  • a prescription issued by a doctor;

  • a copy of the patient's medical card;

  • receipts from pharmacies where you bought medicines;

  • a certificate from a doctor with the specified diagnosis, the indicated terms of treatment and the required amount of the drug.
