Travelling into Australia with your testosterone medication

Your testosterone is a substance subject to import control under Australian law. This means you are required to get a import permit to bring your medication into Australia before entering Australia.

You must obtain permission from the Office of Chemical Safety of the Department of Health and Aging before you bring into Australia your medication.

When the plane lands in Australia, you’ll need to declare your medicines on your Incoming Passenger Card and you should also make yourself aware to Customs on arrival.
