Leaving Singapore with ozempic / semaglutide

ALLOWEDOzempic (semaglutide) may be exported from Singapore for personal use with prescription documentation; cold-chain and injection-pen rules apply.

Semaglutide is prescription-only but not a controlled substance; personal-use pens may be taken out of Singapore without export formality when accompanied by the prescription and doctor's letter covering the injection pens and needles. Keep pens refrigerated where possible (cabin baggage with a cool pack; in-use pens tolerate room temperature per the manufacturer). Supply-shortage export controls have applied to commercial shipments in some markets, not personal patient supply — though carrying many months' worth invites questioning.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Carry documentation. Declare at customs if required.
