Is Adderall legal in Aceh (Indonesia)?
Also known as: addy, amphetamine salts
- Legal status
- Adderall (mixed amphetamine salts) has no separate legal identity, it is regulated AS amphetamine: narkotika Golongan I under Indonesia's national Narcotics Law No. 35/2009 (the Aceh Qanun Jinayat covers alcohol/gambling/morality, not narcotics).
- Consequences if caught
- National law governs: trafficking Golongan I >5 g is DEATH-PENALTY-ELIGIBLE (arts. 113/114). Amphetamine carries capital exposure; sharia caning does not apply to drugs.
- If prescribed or medical
- Prescription stimulant via strictly controlled medical channels; carrying it without a local permit/prescription risks arrest.
- Documentation
- In Aceh, drugs fall under Indonesia's national Narcotics Law No. 35 of 2009 (Articles 111-127), which applies in the province; Aceh ADDITIONALLY applies the qanun jinayat (Islamic criminal bylaws) imposing caning for certain offences as a corporal-punishment overlay distinct from the national penal regime. Organized or large-scale trafficking of Category I narcotics is capital-eligible, the death penalty is NATIONAL (under Law 35/2009), NOT a separate Aceh statute, and Indonesia actively imposes drug death sentences. Possession and lower-level offences carry imprisonment from 4 years or court-ordered rehabilitation; the precise article and threshold are left to confirmation against the current law. This cell is sourced via the UNODC legal database (unodc.org/cld) and the Library of Congress, with the qanun framing corroborated in free text. Carry any controlled medicine with its prescription and confirm requirements with your embassy before travel.
