Is Amphetamine legal in Georgia?

Confirmed against a primary sourceVerified September 21, 2026
Legal status
Amphetamine is a controlled substance in Georgia. The dossier places it on the annexes to Law No. 624, matched to the entry «ამფეტამინი», with CAS 300-62-9 as the identifier the dossier attaches to that match. The entry is recorded in Georgian, which is the language Law No. 624 is written in, so the string and the instrument agree. This row carries the Georgian spelling of the entry while the Adderall row records the same CAS number against a Latin capitals form of the same name, and the two rows are the same entry read twice. The dossier cites the annexed set as Lists I to IV taken together and never records which of the four lists a row sits on, so the placement is established at the level of the annexes and not of a numbered list. The final consolidated text was read on the Legislative Herald of Georgia, which the dossier calls Matsne, on 20 September 2026. The dossier's outcome for this row is verified.
Consequences if caught
Capital exposure: none. Georgia has abolished the death penalty and the dossier records no capital route for any substance on these lists. The ceiling is life imprisonment, under Article 260 of the Criminal Code of Georgia for aggravated illegal circulation, and life is where the scale stops. Because «ამფეტამინი» is an accepted entry, the circulation offence reaches conduct in this substance through that entry. The entry names the parent stimulant, so the circulation offence reaches it directly and the quantity table is read against this entry rather than against a branded product. The official quantity table assigns a small, a large and an especially large quantity by substance, and the dossier records that the table is applied through the matched entry without reproducing any of its figures, so no weight is stated in this cell and none should be inferred from one. There is no general lawful personal use allowance, and the absence of a small quantity figure for a substance is not permission to hold it.
If prescribed or medical
The prescription position is deferred here rather than stated. No Georgian rule on a traveller carrying a prescribed supply has been established for this substance, so whether a foreign prescription is recognised has to be settled with the Georgian authorities before travel. What this row does attach to that deferral is the placement: «ამფეტამინი» is an accepted entry on the annexes to Law No. 624 rather than under the medicines law. It has recognised medical uses and is listed, and the dossier records no Georgian dispensing or import rule for a traveller holding a prescribed supply.
Documentation
The dossier records no documentary requirement for Georgia and carries no column for one, so nothing is prescribed in this cell. What the row does fix is the identity that everything else turns on: the entry «ამფეტამინი», with CAS 300-62-9. The identity to be able to show is the parent molecule, because two rows in this dossier resolve to it and both depend on the same CAS number. The record and its outcome were read on 20 September 2026 and this cell is dated 21 September 2026.
Primary sources
  • Georgia, Law No. 624 and its annexed Lists I to IV, with Article 260 of the Criminal Code of Georgia carrying the penalty ceiling
  • this row rests on the entry «ამფეტამინი» at record GEO-18, identified by CAS 300-62-9. Read in the final consolidated text on the Legislative Herald of Georgia, which the dossier calls Matsne, on 20 September 2026. The entry cited here carries the same CAS number as the Latin capitals entry cited on the Adderall row, so the two rows are one schedule line recorded twice. The set that produced this record is one term written twice, in lower case and in capitals, so it is a single name rather than two independent ones, and the record is only as wide as that name. No per row link exists in the dossier this cell is built from, which carries no web address for this substance or for any other, so the instrument is cited in prose and no address is given
  • none has been taken from the previous version of this cell or from anywhere else. The dossier's outcome for this row is verified.
