1P-LSD

Legal status: Not listed in the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026. The dossier records a search of all thirteen tables of Groups I to IV through the last page, by name, synonyms and chemical name: «سجل البحث الخاص بـ 1p-lsd: بُحث الاسم والمرادفات والاسم الكيميائي في الجداول الثلاثة عشر حتى آخر صفحة؛ لم يوجد قيد مطابق», “Completed thirteen-table search: no exact 1p-lsd entry”. This is a reading of one instrument as of 20 September 2026, not a finding that 1P-LSD is lawful: Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance to the annexed groups by decision.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none under this law for 1P-LSD as read. The source read assigns no penalty under the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 to a substance outside its annex, and 1P-LSD is in none of its tables as the dossier records them. Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance by decision, so this holds as of 20 September 2026 only, and it is not a statement that 1P-LSD is lawful under medicines, product, customs or other law, which was not read for this cell.
If prescribed / medical: This law sets no prescription rule for 1P-LSD, because 1P-LSD is outside its annex as read. Medicines, product and import rules sit outside it and were not read for this cell.
Documentation: This law asks for no document for 1P-LSD, because 1P-LSD is outside its annex as read. Medicines, customs and product rules are separate and were not read for this cell. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette. Decree.om and the dossier this cell was authored from both record that publication as issue 1664 of 6 September 2026, so the law took effect on 7 September 2026. Article II keeps existing regulations and decisions running until replacements issue, «وإلى أن تصدر يستمر العمل باللوائح والقرارات القائمة، بما لا يتعارض مع أحكامه», so far as they do not conflict with its provisions. The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly. Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity. So a reading of the annex is a reading as of a date, and this one runs to 20 September 2026. Placement for 1P-LSD: none in the 2026 annex as read. Under the 1999 law this page recorded: in no table read. The 1999 placements in this cell are this page's earlier reading and are not printed in the quoted extract the dossier carries for this row.

The source read does not say how bringing 2-FDCK into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance.

Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance by decision, so this holds as of 20 September 2026 only, and it is not a statement that 7-hydroxymitragynine is lawful under medicines, product, customs or other law, which was not read for this cell.
If prescribed / medical: This law sets no prescription rule for 7-hydroxymitragynine, because 7-hydroxymitragynine is outside its annex as read. Medicines, product and import rules sit outside it and were not read for this cell.
Documentation: This law asks for no document for 7-hydroxymitragynine, because 7-hydroxymitragynine is outside its annex as read. Medicines, customs and product rules are separate and were not read for this cell. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026.

The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026.

Adderall

Legal status: Controlled through its amphetamine active ingredient, and outside the death penalty article. Adderall is not itself named; amphetamine is named in Group II, Table 2, serial 1 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «أمفيتامين | (±)-a-methylphenethylamine | Amphetamine | AMFETAMINE | 1», and the dossier resolves this row through that entry. The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none for Adderall. Article 37 of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 carries death or life imprisonment, and death in six aggravations, but the dossier states its specified import, export, production and manufacture limb only for Group I Tables 1 to 4 and Group II Table 1, beside the cultivation of Group I Table 5 plants and stated precursor conduct. Amphetamine, through which Adderall is reached, is in Group II, Table 2, serial 1, so article 37 does not reach it, and for Group II Tables 2 to 4 the law states no death penalty and no life term. Conduct distinction. Article 40 is the article for these tables: trafficking carries five to ten years' imprisonment, and possession for personal use carries one to three years. The source read gives no fine under article 40. Article 41 separately sets three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose, but the source read ties article 41 to the higher tier tables and plants and does not say whether that limb reaches Group II Tables 2 to 4, so this page does not apply it. The source read does not say how bringing Adderall into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance. Neither article 37 nor article 40 states a drug quantity threshold, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight.
If prescribed / medical: Adderall is reached through amphetamine, a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding Adderall lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 40.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying Adderall into Oman lawful. Adderall is reached through amphetamine, a scheduled substance in Group II, Table 2, serial 1. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette.

The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026.

Ayahuasca

Legal status: Controlled through the DMT it contains, and inside the death penalty article. Ayahuasca is not itself named; DMT is named in Group II, Table 1, serial 7 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «- | 3-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]indole | DMT | Not Available | 7», and the dossier resolves this row through that entry. The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: yes, for the trafficking conduct article 37 specifies. Article 37 of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 opens «يعاقب بالإعدام أو بالسجن المطلق», death or life imprisonment, for specified import, export, production and manufacture, which the dossier describes as its trafficking conduct, involving Group I Tables 1 to 4 and Group II Table 1, the cultivation of Group I Table 5 plants and stated precursor conduct, and then provides «وتكون العقوبة الإعدام», the penalty shall be death, for six aggravations: smuggling for trafficking, a repeat offence, commission by specified officials, use of a person lacking legal capacity, an international trafficking gang, and abuse of authority, licence or immunity.

Article 38 sets at least 15 years for possession and supply for trafficking, and life imprisonment for two aggravations. Article 41 sets one to three years for personal use involving the high tier tables and plants, and three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose. No fine figure for these articles is given in the source read.

If prescribed / medical: Barbiturates is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding barbiturates lawful, so none is stated.

The dossier quotes article 37's Arabic and gives articles 38 and 41 in English summary.
If prescribed / medical: Cathinone is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding cathinone lawful, so none is stated.

Article II keeps existing regulations and decisions running until replacements issue, «وإلى أن تصدر يستمر العمل باللوائح والقرارات القائمة، بما لا يتعارض مع أحكامه», so far as they do not conflict with its provisions. The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly. Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity.

Article 40 is the article for these tables: trafficking carries five to ten years' imprisonment, and possession for personal use carries one to three years. The source read gives no fine under article 40. Article 41 separately sets three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose, but the source read ties article 41 to the higher tier tables and plants and does not say whether that limb reaches Group II Tables 2 to 4, so this page does not apply it. The source read does not say how bringing clonazepam into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance. Neither article 37 nor article 40 states a drug quantity threshold, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight.
If prescribed / medical: Clonazepam is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex.

If prescribed / medical: Delta-8-THC is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding delta-8-THC lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 41.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying delta-8-THC into Oman lawful. Delta-8-THC is a scheduled substance in Group II, Table 1, serial 32. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette. Decree.om and the dossier this cell was authored from both record that publication as issue 1664 of 6 September 2026, so the law took effect on 7 September 2026. Article II keeps existing regulations and decisions running until replacements issue, «وإلى أن تصدر يستمر العمل باللوائح والقرارات القائمة، بما لا يتعارض مع أحكامه», so far as they do not conflict with its provisions. The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly. Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity. So a reading of the annex is a reading as of a date, and this one runs to 20 September 2026. Placement for Delta-8-THC: Group II, Table 1, serial 32. Under the 1999 law this page recorded: Group 2 table 1 serial 26, whose 2020 text names delta-8-THC expressly among the tetrahydrocannabinol isomers. The 1999 placements in this cell are this page's earlier reading and are not printed in the quoted extract the dossier carries for this row.

Diazepam

Legal status: Controlled, and outside the death penalty article. Diazepam is named in Group II, Table 4, serial 22 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «ديازيبام | 7-chloro-1,3-dihydro-1-methyl-5-phenyI-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2- | | DIAZEPAM | 22». The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none for diazepam. Article 37 of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 carries death or life imprisonment, and death in six aggravations, but the dossier states its specified import, export, production and manufacture limb only for Group I Tables 1 to 4 and Group II Table 1, beside the cultivation of Group I Table 5 plants and stated precursor conduct. Diazepam is in Group II, Table 4, serial 22, so article 37 does not reach it, and for Group II Tables 2 to 4 the law states no death penalty and no life term. Conduct distinction. Article 40 is the article for these tables: trafficking carries five to ten years' imprisonment, and possession for personal use carries one to three years. The source read gives no fine under article 40. Article 41 separately sets three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose, but the source read ties article 41 to the higher tier tables and plants and does not say whether that limb reaches Group II Tables 2 to 4, so this page does not apply it. The source read does not say how bringing diazepam into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance. Neither article 37 nor article 40 states a drug quantity threshold, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight.
If prescribed / medical: Diazepam is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding diazepam lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 40.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying diazepam into Oman lawful. Diazepam is a scheduled substance in Group II, Table 4, serial 22. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026.

The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly. Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity. So a reading of the annex is a reading as of a date, and this one runs to 20 September 2026. Placement for Diazepam: Group II, Table 4, serial 22.

DMT is in Group II, Table 1, serial 7, so article 37 reaches that conduct for it. Conduct distinction. Article 38 sets at least 15 years for possession and supply for trafficking, and life imprisonment for two aggravations. Article 41 sets one to three years for personal use involving the high tier tables and plants, and three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose. No fine figure for these articles is given in the source read.

This is a reading of one instrument as of 20 September 2026, not a finding that DXM is lawful: Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance to the annexed groups by decision.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none under this law for DXM as read. The source read assigns no penalty under the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 to a substance outside its annex, and DXM is in none of its tables as the dossier records them. Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance by decision, so this holds as of 20 September 2026 only, and it is not a statement that DXM is lawful under medicines, product, customs or other law, which was not read for this cell.
If prescribed / medical: This law sets no prescription rule for DXM, because DXM is outside its annex as read. Medicines, product and import rules sit outside it and were not read for this cell.

Ephedrine is named in Group IV, Table 1, serial 3 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «إفيدرين | EPHEDRINE | 3», which is the precursor group, not a narcotic or psychotropic table. The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: only through article 37 and only as the source read states it. The dossier records that article 37(1)(3) of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 reaches a Group IV precursor «only when Article 4 is violated for trafficking», in its English words, with death or life imprisonment and death mandatory for the listed aggravations. The source read does not quote article 4 or give a band for any other conduct involving a Group IV precursor, so none is stated. No quantity threshold is stated.
If prescribed / medical: Ephedrine is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding ephedrine lawful, so none is stated.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying ephedrine into Oman lawful. Ephedrine is a scheduled substance in Group IV, Table 1, serial 3. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette. Decree.om and the dossier this cell was authored from both record that publication as issue 1664 of 6 September 2026, so the law took effect on 7 September 2026. Article II keeps existing regulations and decisions running until replacements issue, «وإلى أن تصدر يستمر العمل باللوائح والقرارات القائمة، بما لا يتعارض مع أحكامه», so far as they do not conflict with its provisions. The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly. Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity. So a reading of the annex is a reading as of a date, and this one runs to 20 September 2026. Placement for Ephedrine: Group IV, Table 1, serial 3. Under the 1999 law this page recorded: in no table read as ephedrine, Group 2 table 3 serial 4 being cathine, whose other name is (+) norpseudoephedrine, and that is a different substance.

Etizolam

Legal status: Controlled, and outside the death penalty article. Etizolam is named in Group II, Table 4, serial 29 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «| 4-(2-Chlorophenyl)-2-ethyl-9-methyl-6H-thieno[3,2- f][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3a][1,4]diazepine | | ETIZOLAM | 29». The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none for etizolam. Article 37 of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 carries death or life imprisonment, and death in six aggravations, but the dossier states its specified import, export, production and manufacture limb only for Group I Tables 1 to 4 and Group II Table 1, beside the cultivation of Group I Table 5 plants and stated precursor conduct. Etizolam is in Group II, Table 4, serial 29, so article 37 does not reach it, and for Group II Tables 2 to 4 the law states no death penalty and no life term. Conduct distinction. Article 40 is the article for these tables: trafficking carries five to ten years' imprisonment, and possession for personal use carries one to three years. The source read gives no fine under article 40. Article 41 separately sets three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose, but the source read ties article 41 to the higher tier tables and plants and does not say whether that limb reaches Group II Tables 2 to 4, so this page does not apply it. The source read does not say how bringing etizolam into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance. Neither article 37 nor article 40 states a drug quantity threshold, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight.
If prescribed / medical: Etizolam is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding etizolam lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 40.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying etizolam into Oman lawful. Etizolam is a scheduled substance in Group II, Table 4, serial 29. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette. Decree.om and the dossier this cell was authored from both record that publication as issue 1664 of 6 September 2026, so the law took effect on 7 September 2026. Article II keeps existing regulations and decisions running until replacements issue, «وإلى أن تصدر يستمر العمل باللوائح والقرارات القائمة، بما لا يتعارض مع أحكامه», so far as they do not conflict with its provisions. The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly. Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity. So a reading of the annex is a reading as of a date, and this one runs to 20 September 2026. Placement for Etizolam: Group II, Table 4, serial 29.

HHC

Legal status: Controlled, and outside the death penalty article. HHC is named in Group II, Table 2, serial 28 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «هيكساهيدروكانابينول | 6,6,9-trimethyl-3-pentyl-6a,7,8,9,10,10ahexahydrobenzo[c]chromen- 1-ol | | HEXAHYDROCANNABINOL (HHC) | 28». The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none for HHC. Article 37 of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 carries death or life imprisonment, and death in six aggravations, but the dossier states its specified import, export, production and manufacture limb only for Group I Tables 1 to 4 and Group II Table 1, beside the cultivation of Group I Table 5 plants and stated precursor conduct. HHC is in Group II, Table 2, serial 28, so article 37 does not reach it, and for Group II Tables 2 to 4 the law states no death penalty and no life term. Conduct distinction. Article 40 is the article for these tables: trafficking carries five to ten years' imprisonment, and possession for personal use carries one to three years. The source read gives no fine under article 40. Article 41 separately sets three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose, but the source read ties article 41 to the higher tier tables and plants and does not say whether that limb reaches Group II Tables 2 to 4, so this page does not apply it. The source read does not say how bringing HHC into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance. Neither article 37 nor article 40 states a drug quantity threshold, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight.
If prescribed / medical: HHC is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding HHC lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 40.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying HHC into Oman lawful. HHC is a scheduled substance in Group II, Table 2, serial 28. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette. Decree.om and the dossier this cell was authored from both record that publication as issue 1664 of 6 September 2026, so the law took effect on 7 September 2026. Article II keeps existing regulations and decisions running until replacements issue, «وإلى أن تصدر يستمر العمل باللوائح والقرارات القائمة، بما لا يتعارض مع أحكامه», so far as they do not conflict with its provisions. The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly. Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity. So a reading of the annex is a reading as of a date, and this one runs to 20 September 2026. Placement for HHC: Group II, Table 2, serial 28. Under the 1999 law this page recorded: in no table read.

Article 41 sets one to three years for personal use involving the high tier tables and plants, and three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose.

Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity.

MDPV

Memantine

Legal status: Not listed in the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026. The dossier records a search of all thirteen tables of Groups I to IV through the last page, by name, synonyms and chemical name: «سجل البحث الخاص بـ memantine: بُحث الاسم والمرادفات والاسم الكيميائي في الجداول الثلاثة عشر حتى آخر صفحة؛ لم يوجد قيد مطابق», “Completed thirteen-table search: no exact memantine entry”. This is a reading of one instrument as of 20 September 2026, not a finding that memantine is lawful: Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance to the annexed groups by decision.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none under this law for memantine as read. The source read assigns no penalty under the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 to a substance outside its annex, and memantine is in none of its tables as the dossier records them. Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance by decision, so this holds as of 20 September 2026 only, and it is not a statement that memantine is lawful under medicines, product, customs or other law, which was not read for this cell.
If prescribed / medical: This law sets no prescription rule for memantine, because memantine is outside its annex as read. Medicines, product and import rules sit outside it and were not read for this cell.
Documentation: This law asks for no document for memantine, because memantine is outside its annex as read. Medicines, customs and product rules are separate and were not read for this cell. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette.

The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly.

Mephedrone (4-MMC)

Legal status: Controlled, and outside the death penalty article. Mephedrone is named in Group II, Table 2, serial 37 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «- | (RS)-2-methylamino-1-(4-methylphenyl)propan1-one | mephedrone, 4- methylmethcathinone | - | 37». The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none for mephedrone. Article 37 of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 carries death or life imprisonment, and death in six aggravations, but the dossier states its specified import, export, production and manufacture limb only for Group I Tables 1 to 4 and Group II Table 1, beside the cultivation of Group I Table 5 plants and stated precursor conduct. Mephedrone is in Group II, Table 2, serial 37, so article 37 does not reach it, and for Group II Tables 2 to 4 the law states no death penalty and no life term. Conduct distinction. Article 40 is the article for these tables: trafficking carries five to ten years' imprisonment, and possession for personal use carries one to three years. The source read gives no fine under article 40. Article 41 separately sets three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose, but the source read ties article 41 to the higher tier tables and plants and does not say whether that limb reaches Group II Tables 2 to 4, so this page does not apply it. The source read does not say how bringing mephedrone into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance. Neither article 37 nor article 40 states a drug quantity threshold, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight.
If prescribed / medical: Mephedrone is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding mephedrone lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 40.

The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026.

Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity.

Methylphenidate

Legal status: Controlled, and outside the death penalty article. Methylphenidate is named in Group II, Table 2, serial 53 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «مثيل فينيدات | Methyl a-phenyl-2-piperidineacetate | | METHYLPHENIDAT | 53». The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none for methylphenidate. Article 37 of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 carries death or life imprisonment, and death in six aggravations, but the dossier states its specified import, export, production and manufacture limb only for Group I Tables 1 to 4 and Group II Table 1, beside the cultivation of Group I Table 5 plants and stated precursor conduct. Methylphenidate is in Group II, Table 2, serial 53, so article 37 does not reach it, and for Group II Tables 2 to 4 the law states no death penalty and no life term. Conduct distinction. Article 40 is the article for these tables: trafficking carries five to ten years' imprisonment, and possession for personal use carries one to three years. The source read gives no fine under article 40. Article 41 separately sets three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose, but the source read ties article 41 to the higher tier tables and plants and does not say whether that limb reaches Group II Tables 2 to 4, so this page does not apply it. The source read does not say how bringing methylphenidate into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance. Neither article 37 nor article 40 states a drug quantity threshold, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight.
If prescribed / medical: Methylphenidate is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding methylphenidate lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 40.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying methylphenidate into Oman lawful. Methylphenidate is a scheduled substance in Group II, Table 2, serial 53. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette. Decree.om and the dossier this cell was authored from both record that publication as issue 1664 of 6 September 2026, so the law took effect on 7 September 2026. Article II keeps existing regulations and decisions running until replacements issue, «وإلى أن تصدر يستمر العمل باللوائح والقرارات القائمة، بما لا يتعارض مع أحكامه», so far as they do not conflict with its provisions. The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly. Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary. It takes the place of article 4 of the 1999 law, «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب كلما اقتضت الظروف ذلك», which gave the same power without the word for quantities and with «الظروف», circumstances, where the 2026 text has «الضرورة», necessity.

Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance by decision, so this holds as of 20 September 2026 only, and it is not a statement that phenibut is lawful under medicines, product, customs or other law, which was not read for this cell.

Pregabalin

Legal status: Controlled, and outside the death penalty article. Pregabalin is named in Group II, Table 4, serial 70 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «| (S)-3-(aminomethyl)-5-methylhexanoic acid | | PREGABALIN | 70». The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none for pregabalin. Article 37 of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 carries death or life imprisonment, and death in six aggravations, but the dossier states its specified import, export, production and manufacture limb only for Group I Tables 1 to 4 and Group II Table 1, beside the cultivation of Group I Table 5 plants and stated precursor conduct. Pregabalin is in Group II, Table 4, serial 70, so article 37 does not reach it, and for Group II Tables 2 to 4 the law states no death penalty and no life term. Conduct distinction. Article 40 is the article for these tables: trafficking carries five to ten years' imprisonment, and possession for personal use carries one to three years. The source read gives no fine under article 40. Article 41 separately sets three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose, but the source read ties article 41 to the higher tier tables and plants and does not say whether that limb reaches Group II Tables 2 to 4, so this page does not apply it. The source read does not say how bringing pregabalin into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance. Neither article 37 nor article 40 states a drug quantity threshold, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight.
If prescribed / medical: Pregabalin is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding pregabalin lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 40.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying pregabalin into Oman lawful. Pregabalin is a scheduled substance in Group II, Table 4, serial 70. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette.

The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.

Psilocybin is in Group II, Table 1, serial 27, so article 37 reaches that conduct for it. Conduct distinction. Article 38 sets at least 15 years for possession and supply for trafficking, and life imprisonment for two aggravations. Article 41 sets one to three years for personal use involving the high tier tables and plants, and three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose. No fine figure for these articles is given in the source read. Article 37 states no drug quantity threshold and neither do articles 38 and 41, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight. The dossier quotes article 37's Arabic and gives articles 38 and 41 in English summary.
If prescribed / medical: Psilocybin is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding psilocybin lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 41.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying psilocybin into Oman lawful. Psilocybin is a scheduled substance in Group II, Table 1, serial 27. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026.

Tobacco

Legal status: Not a controlled substance under the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026. Tobacco is in none of the four groups annexed to it, as the dossier records its search: «سجل البحث الخاص بـ tobacco: لم يوجد قيد مطابق في المجموعات الأربع الملحقة», “Completed annex search: no exact tobacco entry”. Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance by decision, so this is a reading as of 20 September 2026, and rules outside this law were not read.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none under this law for tobacco as read. The source read assigns no penalty under the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 to a substance outside its annex, and tobacco is in none of its tables as the dossier records them. Article 5 lets the Minister add a substance by decision, so this holds as of 20 September 2026 only, and it is not a statement that tobacco is lawful under medicines, product, customs or other law, which was not read for this cell.
If prescribed / medical: This law sets no prescription rule for tobacco, because tobacco is outside its annex as read. Medicines, product and import rules sit outside it and were not read for this cell.
Documentation: This law asks for no document for tobacco, because tobacco is outside its annex as read. Medicines, customs and product rules are separate and were not read for this cell. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette. Decree.om and the dossier this cell was authored from both record that publication as issue 1664 of 6 September 2026, so the law took effect on 7 September 2026. Article II keeps existing regulations and decisions running until replacements issue, «وإلى أن تصدر يستمر العمل باللوائح والقرارات القائمة، بما لا يتعارض مع أحكامه», so far as they do not conflict with its provisions. The decree's own articles were read in the text the Oman News Agency published on 3 September 2026. The attached law and its annex were read only through the verbatim quotations in the dossier dated 20 September 2026, because on 3 October 2026 qanoon.om served a Cloudflare challenge in place of the text, the web archive held no copy, and decree.om carried the decree's Articles I to IV and its Gazette reference but not the attached law, which it said would be uploaded shortly. Article 5 of the law, as that dossier quotes it, provides «يجوز بقرار من الوزير تعديل المجموعات الملحقة بهذا القانون بالحذف أو الإضافة أو تغيير النسب أو الكميات كلما اقتضت الضرورة ذلك», the Minister may by decision amend the annexed groups by deletion, by addition or by changing percentages or quantities whenever necessary.

Tramadol

Legal status: Controlled, and outside the death penalty article. Tramadol is named in Group II, Table 3, serial 10 of the annex to the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026, «ترامادول هيدروكلورايد وجميع أملاحه الأخرى بصورتها الخام أو المصنعة أو المخلوطة | (+)cis-2-[(dimethylamino) methyl) ]-1-(3-methoxyphenyl) Cyclohexanol hydrochloride | | TRAMADOL HYDROCHLORIDE & ALL KINDS OF ITS OTHERS SALT FORMS | 10». The Group and Table numbers in this cell are taken from the locator column of the dossier; the serial is the last column of the quoted row.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none for tramadol. Article 37 of the Law on Combating Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 67/2026 carries death or life imprisonment, and death in six aggravations, but the dossier states its specified import, export, production and manufacture limb only for Group I Tables 1 to 4 and Group II Table 1, beside the cultivation of Group I Table 5 plants and stated precursor conduct. Tramadol is in Group II, Table 3, serial 10, so article 37 does not reach it, and for Group II Tables 2 to 4 the law states no death penalty and no life term. Conduct distinction. Article 40 is the article for these tables: trafficking carries five to ten years' imprisonment, and possession for personal use carries one to three years. The source read gives no fine under article 40. Article 41 separately sets three to seven years for possession with neither a trafficking nor a personal use purpose, but the source read ties article 41 to the higher tier tables and plants and does not say whether that limb reaches Group II Tables 2 to 4, so this page does not apply it. The source read does not say how bringing tramadol into or out of the country is charged: it puts import and export in article 37 only for the higher tables, and it does not name the article for a Group II Table 2 to 4 substance. Neither article 37 nor article 40 states a drug quantity threshold, so the table and the purpose decide the band, not the weight.
If prescribed / medical: Tramadol is a scheduled substance under the 2026 annex. The source read for this cell does not cover the law's licensing provisions, and it sets out no traveller allowance and no route by which a foreign prescription makes holding tramadol lawful, so none is stated. Personal use is punished under article 40.
Documentation: No document in the source read makes carrying tramadol into Oman lawful. Tramadol is a scheduled substance in Group II, Table 3, serial 10. Where the rule comes from. The law changed in September 2026. Royal Decree 67/2026 was issued on 3 September 2026. Its Article III repeals the Law on Combating Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances issued by Royal Decree 17/99, and its Article IV brings the decree, and with it the new law, into force on the day after its publication in the Official Gazette.
