Is 3-MMC legal in Aceh (Indonesia)?
- Legal status
- 3-MMC (3-methylmethcathinone) is controlled in Aceh under national narcotics law (UU 35/2009) — Aceh's Islamic qanun covers khamr and gambling, not synthetic narcotics, so 3-MMC's status matches Indonesia federal (synthetic cathinone reached by Narkotika Golongan I); the specific listing is left to confirmation.
- Consequences if caught
- National Golongan I trafficking law applies and is DEATH-ELIGIBLE for trafficking if 3-MMC is a named Golongan I cathinone. Treat as EXTREME-risk.
- If prescribed or medical
- Golongan I: no recognised medical use and no lawful prescription route.
- Documentation
- No lawful personal-import route; national narcotics law governs in Aceh.
