請問可以帶中藥粉過去澳洲嗎？ - 澳洲

※ 引述《koscar (台中 平凡人)》之銘言：
: 如題
: 小弟要前往澳洲，需要長期吃中藥"粉" 但是好像又不能一次帶太多過去
: 所以想要大約2個月，請朋友寄過來給我，
: 請問如果：
: 1."不是"真空包裝
: 2.盒子外面有貼中文成份，並且再附上成份英文翻譯
: 這樣寄過來澳洲的話，會被查扣嗎？
: 麻煩大家了，感激不盡！！


幫你查了一下AQIS網頁,
如果不是經商業包裝的藥粉, 恐怕被查收及要求銷毀的機會相當高,
這裡商業包裝的定義並非單單真空包裝,
還要有商業標籤等等, 個人認為除非遇上非常好心的關員,
否則你的藥粉要經郵寄入境應該難逃被收而且很難要求放行

以下是我用來查詢的兩個網頁, 個人認為十分有用, 你亦不妨參考:

第一個網頁基本列明什麼不能進口:
http://www.daffa.gov.au/aqis/mail/cant-mail

你的藥粉相信應歸類為plant material吧,
網頁上寫:

Plant Material

* tea containing seeds, fruit skin (for example citrus and apple peel)
and fruit pieces
* remedies and medicines containing herbs, seeds, bark, fungi and dried
plant material*
* dried flower arrangements and potpourri
* dried herbs or leaves
* handicrafts – including wreaths and Christmas decorations –
containing seeds, raw nuts, corn, pine cones, grapevines, bark, moss, straw
or other plant material
* wooden items with bark or signs of insects present


所以只要是含有草本成份、種子、樹皮、真菌以及乾燥植物材料的藥物都會被查收,
也就是說要看你的藥粉成份來決定要不要收


另一個更詳細的查詢網頁是:
http://www.aqis.gov.au/icon32/asp/ex_querycontent.asp

這個網頁很好用,
第一行commodity輸入你想帶入境的物品 e.g. medicine
第二行from country選出物品來源地 e.g. taiwan
第三行for end use選出物品用途 e.g. therapeutics
搜查一下就知道有沒有相關條例管制入口了

按上述例子搜出來有兩種相關條例, 一種是人用藥物另一種是獸醫用,
所以你的個案應該是human therapeutics了,
進入這個選項就會出現相關條例:

Non-Commercial

1. A Quarantine Entry is not required.

2. An Import Permit is not required, provided that:

a) The article is for human therapeutic use (this may be supported by product
labelling , an accompanying brochure or internet printout, or a letter from a
doctor); and

b) The product is imported into Australia (whether personally or by post) by
a person who intends to use it for their own personal use; and

c) The product is imported in a quantity of no more than three months supply.
Three months supply can be determined by:
- The label dosage advice; or
- A letter in English from a medical practitioner, naturopath or
alternative health provider; or
- A statutory declaration by the importer stating that the product is for
personal use only and is less than 3 months supply; and

d) The product is commercially prepared and packaged (e.g. capsules, tablets,
vials for injection, liquid, powder, ointment, etc). This includes
commercially packaged probiotics (e.g. Lactobacillus, Bacillus subtilis and
Bifidobacterium spp.).

Note: Consignments of products containing ganoderma, bee pollen, slippery elm
bark or plant ingredients must be in capsules, tablets, vials for injection,
liquid or ointment form to be exempt from the requirement for an Import
Permit. For consignments containing ganoderma powder, bee pollen powder or
slippery elm bark powder refer to the separate ICON cases.

3. For consignments that do not meet the above requirements, an AQIS Import
Permit must be obtained prior to importation. Permit applications must be
sent to AQIS Canberra office for assessment.

簡單來說是藥粉如果附具文件證明是人用藥物, 經由商業製作及包裝,
入口用途是自用並證明總量不超過三個月使用量, 就可以放行,
否則就要在寄抵前預先申請入口牌照, 經核准才能進口

另外, 特定幾種材料如果屬成份之一, 則必需是製鍊成藥丸等其他形態才能免牌照入口,
你的藥粉有沒有這幾種成份要你才知道了...

總的來說, 我覺得如果你的藥粉不是明顯經由商業包裝製作的話
(如正露丸等中成藥產品), 要寄進來應該相當困難...
