Frequently asked questions
Who can send a medicine sourcing enquiry for New Zealand?
Individuals, importers, pharmacies, clinics, hospitals and procurement teams may send product enquiries for review. Acceptance of an enquiry does not confirm medicine availability, permission to supply or import eligibility.
What should I check before a personal prescription-medicine enquiry for New Zealand?
For prescription medicines sent from overseas, Medsafe requires support from a New Zealand-authorised prescriber. Check its current conditions and exclusions with your prescriber before arranging a shipment.
Can a New Zealand personal-import allowance be used for onward supply?
Importers, pharmacies, clinics and hospitals should identify the receiving organisation and confirm the applicable product and import permissions. A personal-use allowance does not authorise onward supply.
What product details should the enquiry include?
State the medicine or active ingredient, strength, dosage form, pack size, quantity, destination and buyer type. The team can then discuss product information and available documentation. Do not send medical histories or identity documents in an initial general enquiry.
Does a quotation guarantee approval, customs clearance or delivery?
No. Product availability and price do not establish permission to supply or import. The applicable receiving route and product requirements must be confirmed before shipment is arranged.
Does an overseas prescription alone meet the New Zealand personal-import requirement?
Medsafe’s guidance requires an original prescription or letter from a New Zealand-authorised prescriber. It must match the medicine’s name, strength, quantity and form and show awareness of the overseas import. An overseas prescription alone should not be treated as satisfying that requirement. Check the exact medicine and applicable exclusions with Medsafe and your prescriber.
