Leaving Vietnam with adderall (medication)
Adderall is a Schedule II controlled substance in the US and equivalent schedules in most other jurisdictions. Personal-use quantities (typically a 30-90 day supply) accompanied by the prescription and doctor's letter are generally permitted for export under Penal Code Art. 249-252; Law on Customs 54/2014. Above these limits, a Drug Administration of Vietnam (MoH) authorisation is required in advance. Destination-country rules on Adderall import are more restrictive in many jurisdictions (Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, UAE, Saudi Arabia).
