Confirmed legal status

1P-LSD

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as an especially dangerous psychotropic substance whose circulation is prohibited. The list prints «1Р-LSD» with the gloss «(1-пропіоніл-d-лізергінової кислоти діетиламід)» and the chemical name «(6aR,9R)-N,N-діетил-7-метил-4-пропаноїл-6,6а,8,9-тетрагідроіндоло[4,3-fg]xiнoлiн-9-карбоксамід» in Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено». Lysergide itself is a separate row of the same list, «(±)-лізергід (ЛСД, ЛСД-25)», so this prodrug does not depend on the list's note about esters or derivatives. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця I, Список № 2, so the especially dangerous limb of articles 305 and 307 applies with no quantity condition. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 for a restricted substance, but part 2 reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби або психотропні речовини» without any quantity, so any sale of this row's substance carries six to ten years with confiscation of property, rising to nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, and eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2, which reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби чи психотропні речовини» with no quantity condition, so this row starts at part 2; an organised group or an especially large size gives ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: None. The heading of the list that carries this row says circulation is prohibited, «обіг яких заборонено», so no prescription, licence or foreign prescription can make carriage lawful in Ukraine. This run read no medicines or licensing law, and a prohibited heading leaves nothing for such law to authorise.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця I, Список № 2, the named row and the lysergide row. Searched this run in Ukrainian and Latin forms against the full list: «LSD» in Latin matched only this row and «1B-LSD», a neighbouring row read and set aside as a different compound, because the lysergide row prints the abbreviation in Cyrillic as «ЛСД»; «лізергін» matched this row's gloss, the lysergide chemical name, the ergometrine chemical name and the precursor «Лізергінова кислота» in Таблиця IV, Список № 1. The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written. A traveller should carry nothing in reliance on this row, and anyone carrying a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, strength and dose.

2-FDCK

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as a psychotropic substance whose circulation is restricted. The list prints «2-фтордезхлоркетамін» with the chemical name «2-(2-фторфеніл)-2(метиламіно)циклогексан-1-он» in Таблиця II, Список № 2, headed «Психотропні речовини, обіг яких обмежено», the same list that carries ketamine as «Кетамін». This fluoro analogue is therefore placed alongside its parent, unlike the methoxy analogue, which is in the prohibited Таблиця I. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026.

Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця II, Список № 2, a restricted rather than prohibited list, so article 307 starts at part 1 and the especially dangerous limb does not apply. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 with no confiscation, six to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group, a large size or sale in a place of mass gathering, and nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group or a large size, and ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group or an especially large size. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor.

If prescribed / medical: Restricted, not prohibited, under the heading «обіг яких обмежено», but this compound is not an authorised medicine anywhere this run could establish, and no licensing law was read, so a traveller has no route to carry it.

25I-NBOMe

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own printed name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, carries the heading «25I-NBOMe» and fixes it with CAS 919797-19-6, and record UKR-03 accepts that printed row rather than reasoning from the empowering provision. The list, not the offence article, owns the substance names in Ukraine: стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори» does no more than authorise the Cabinet to approve the Перелік. The match is exact at the level of the molecule, which matters for this compound because the neighbouring phenethylamines of the same series were not matched by the same search. What the printed row settles is identity. It does not by itself say which table the heading sits in, and this source does not state the table for it. One note on script, because it cuts the other way here. Across this dossier 186 search terms are logged and not one contains a Cyrillic character, while 41 of the 43 accepted entries are printed in Cyrillic. This heading is one of only two accepted in Latin, which is why a Latin search could match it at all. The positive is unaffected by the defect that undermines the absence records elsewhere in the set.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has abolished the death penalty and no drug article restores it. The criminal exposure this source states is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence anywhere in the article. Because the printed heading at CAS 919797-19-6 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 can be keyed to this molecule and it is the order, not the criminal code, that sets the small, large and especially large figures that decide which part of стаття 307 applies. This source does not reproduce the numeric bands for this heading, so no milligram figure is stated here, and the separate possession article is not named by the source either. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine states no personal use allowance of any size, and наказ МОЗ № 188 is a grading instrument rather than a traveller's allowance. A scheduled medicine has additionally to satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Attached to this row, the placement is a matched narcotics or psychotropic heading at CAS 919797-19-6, and there is no approved medicinal product built on this molecule to which a prescription route could attach. Beyond that country level rule the source establishes no import permit procedure, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched. Do not invent a medical route for this compound.
Documentation: Carry nothing that relies on a prescription, because none exists for this heading. If a blotter or a liquid is being carried for any reason, carry the analytical certificate that names the molecule, since the Ukrainian row is keyed to CAS 919797-19-6 and an officer will look for that identity rather than a street name. A traveller carrying a genuine prescribed medicine that has been mistaken for this compound should carry the dispensing pack, the label in the patient's name, the prescription and a doctor's letter giving the active ingredient and the dose. The heading was read on 20 September 2026 and later amendments can change the table it sits in.

2C-B

Legal status: Scheduled in Ukraine under the international non proprietary style name rather than the street abbreviation. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints the heading «Броламфетамін (2C-B)» and fixes it at CAS 66142-81-2, and record UKR-04 accepts that row. The list prints the heading in capitals and it is given here in sentence case. The bracketed abbreviation is the list's own, which removes the usual argument about whether a schedule written in a different naming convention reaches this molecule. The heading owns the identity because стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори» gives the Перелік that job and the criminal code does not name substances at all. This source does not state which of таблиці I to IV the heading sits in.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty for any offence, drug offences included. The article this source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part sets the ceiling at twelve years of imprisonment and which provides no life sentence. Because the heading at CAS 66142-81-2 is matched by name, наказ МОЗ № 188 can be keyed to this molecule, and that order rather than the code carries the small, large and especially large figures that decide the part of стаття 307 in play. The source does not reproduce those figures, so no weight is stated here. It also does not name the separate possession offence, so that article is not cited. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, and наказ МОЗ № 188 sets criminal grading bands rather than a traveller's allowance. Any scheduled medicine must also clear Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 66142-81-2, and there is no authorised medicinal product in Ukraine built on this molecule for a prescription to attach to, so the medicines route does not arise. Beyond that country rule the source establishes no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched. A research chemical invoice is not a medical document in Ukraine.
Documentation: Carry no assumption that a foreign supply document helps. The Ukrainian row is keyed to CAS 66142-81-2 under a heading that names both the non proprietary form and the abbreviation, so an officer has an exact identity to test against. A traveller who is carrying a prescribed medicine and fears confusion with this compound should carry the original dispensing pack, a dispensing label in the patient's name, the prescription itself and a doctor's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength and the treatment period. Keep the quantity to the treatment period stated in that letter. The heading was read in the consolidated text on 20 September 2026.

2C-E

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as an especially dangerous psychotropic substance whose circulation is prohibited. The list prints «2С-Е» with the chemical name «2,5-диметокси-4-етил-фенілетиламін» in Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено». The printed name mixes Cyrillic and Latin letters and is quoted here exactly as printed. The same list also prints the N-benzyl derivative «25E-NBOMe (2C-E-NBOMe)» as a separate row. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця I, Список № 2, so the especially dangerous limb of articles 305 and 307 applies with no quantity condition. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 for a restricted substance, but part 2 reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби або психотропні речовини» without any quantity, so any sale of this row's substance carries six to ten years with confiscation of property, rising to nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, and eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2, which reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби чи психотропні речовини» with no quantity condition, so this row starts at part 2; an organised group or an especially large size gives ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: None. The heading of the list that carries this row says circulation is prohibited, «обіг яких заборонено», so no prescription, licence or foreign prescription can make carriage lawful in Ukraine. This run read no medicines or licensing law, and a prohibited heading leaves nothing for such law to authorise.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця I, Список № 2, named row, and the list's note on phenethylamine derivatives. Searched this run against the full list in both scripts because the list mixes them. «2С-Е» in Cyrillic matched the named row only. «2C-E» in Latin matched only the N-benzyl row «25E-NBOMe (2C-E-NBOMe)». «диметокси-4-етил» in the chemical name column matched this row, «ДОЕТ», the amphetamine homologue, and the chemical name of «2С-Т-2», both read and set aside. The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written. A traveller should carry nothing in reliance on this row, and anyone carrying a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, strength and dose.

Both rows are quoted exactly as printed and neither is corrected here.

2C-T-7 in Ukraine, full detail →

3-MMC

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under a Cyrillic abbreviation rather than a spelled out chemical name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints the heading «3-ММС» and fixes it at CAS 1246911-71-6, and record UKR-08 accepts that printed row. The abbreviation matters here because the list also prints a separate heading for the ring isomer of this cathinone, so the two are distinguished by position on the ring rather than left to a class clause. Substance identity in Ukraine belongs to the Перелік, approved under стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори»; the criminal code supplies offences and never names a molecule. This source does not state which of таблиці I to IV the heading occupies.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. There is no death penalty in Ukrainian law. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 1246911-71-6 is matched by name, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule and those bands, not the code, decide which part of стаття 307 is engaged. This source does not reproduce the numeric figures for the heading, so no gram or milligram amount is asserted here. The separate possession offence is not named by the source and is not stated. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: No personal use quantity is lawful in Ukraine, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing a traveller, and any scheduled medicine must also satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 1246911-71-6 and there is no authorised medicinal product in Ukraine containing this cathinone, so the prescription limb does not arise. Beyond that country rule the source states no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched. Nothing about a legal market elsewhere carries into Ukraine.
Documentation: Carry no reliance on a supplier's paperwork. The Ukrainian heading is keyed to CAS 1246911-71-6 and an officer will test identity against the printed abbreviation, which distinguishes this cathinone from its ring isomer by position rather than by class. A traveller carrying a prescribed stimulant that could be confused with a cathinone should carry the original dispensing pack, the dispensing label in the patient's name, the prescription and a doctor's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose and the treatment period, and should keep the quantity within that period. The heading was read on 20 September 2026 in the consolidated text.

4-AcO-DMT

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as an especially dangerous psychotropic substance whose circulation is prohibited. The list prints «4-AcO-DMT» with the chemical name «[3-[2-(диметиламіно)етил]-1H-індол-4-іл]ацетат» in Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено». Psilocin, the compound this acetate ester is understood to release, is a separate row, «Псилоцин», so the placement does not rest on the ester limb of the list's note. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця I, Список № 2, so the especially dangerous limb of articles 305 and 307 applies with no quantity condition. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 for a restricted substance, but part 2 reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби або психотропні речовини» without any quantity, so any sale of this row's substance carries six to ten years with confiscation of property, rising to nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, and eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2, which reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби чи психотропні речовини» with no quantity condition, so this row starts at part 2; an organised group or an especially large size gives ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: None. The heading of the list that carries this row says circulation is prohibited, «обіг яких заборонено», so no prescription, licence or foreign prescription can make carriage lawful in Ukraine. This run read no medicines or licensing law, and a prohibited heading leaves nothing for such law to authorise.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів.

The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written.

4-HO-MET

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as an especially dangerous psychotropic substance whose circulation is prohibited, and it is printed twice. The list prints «4-hydroxy MET (4-HO-MEТ; Metocin)» with the chemical name «3-[2-[етил(метил)аміно]етил]-1H-індол-4-ол», and again «4-HO-MET» with the chemical name «3-{2-[етил(метил)аміно]етил}-1H-індол-4-ол», both in Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено».

This row is in Таблиця I, Список № 2, so the especially dangerous limb of articles 305 and 307 applies with no quantity condition. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 for a restricted substance, but part 2 reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби або психотропні речовини» without any quantity, so any sale of this row's substance carries six to ten years with confiscation of property, rising to nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, and eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2, which reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби чи психотропні речовини» with no quantity condition, so this row starts at part 2; an organised group or an especially large size gives ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: None. The heading of the list that carries this row says circulation is prohibited, «обіг яких заборонено», so no prescription, licence or foreign prescription can make carriage lawful in Ukraine. This run read no medicines or licensing law, and a prohibited heading leaves nothing for such law to authorise.

The same prefix in Cyrillic matched «5-МеО-АМТ» and «5-МеО-NМТ». Each of those was read and set aside as a different compound. «буфотен» matched «Буфотенин (5-OH-DMT)», also a different compound.

6-APB

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine as an especially dangerous psychotropic substance whose circulation is prohibited, under two rows of Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено». The list prints «APB» with the chemical name «5-(2-амінопропіл)бензофуран)6-(2-амінопропіл)бензофуран)», which names both the 5 and the 6 position isomer, and separately prints «2-APB» with the chemical name «1-(1-бензофуран-6-іл)пропан-2-амін», which is the 6 position compound despite the 2 in its printed name. Both are quoted exactly as printed and neither is corrected here. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026.

It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell.

This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term.

7-Hydroxymitragynine (7-OH)

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as a narcotic drug whose circulation is restricted. The list prints «7-Гідроксимітрагінін» «(7-hydroxymitragynine; 7-ОН; 7-HMG)» with the chemical name «метил (2E)-2-[(2S,3S,7aS,12bS)-3-етил-7a-гідрокси-8-метокси-1,2,3,4,6,7,7a,12,12b-октагідроіндоло[2,3-a]хінолізин-2-іл]-3-метоксипроп-2-еноат» in Таблиця II, Список № 1, headed «Наркотичні засоби та рослини, обіг яких обмежено», as the third of three consecutive rows that name the kratom leaf, mitragynine and this compound. It does not depend on the list's note extending each entry to metabolites, although that note would also reach it. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026.

Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця II, Список № 1, a restricted rather than prohibited list, so article 307 starts at part 1 and the especially dangerous limb does not apply. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 with no confiscation, six to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group, a large size or sale in a place of mass gathering, and nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group or a large size, and ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group or an especially large size. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Public use, or use by a group in a place of mass gathering, is criminal under article 316 for «наркотичних засобів», restriction of liberty of up to four years or imprisonment of up to three years; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily.

Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: Restricted, not prohibited: the list heading reads «обіг яких обмежено», which leaves room for licensed circulation, but this run read no licensing or medicines law and found no Ukrainian authorised product made from this leaf or its alkaloids, so a traveller has no established route. Sale as a herbal product or supplement in another country gives no Ukrainian cover.

Adderall

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine through its active ingredient, not under its trade name. Record UKR-14 matches the branded product to a printed heading in Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, at CAS 300-62-9. One caution belongs on the face of this cell: the source reports the heading for this row in a Latin spelling and reports a separate Cyrillic heading, at the same CAS 300-62-9, for the generic substance row. The same molecule cannot honestly be said to have two independent headings, and the source does not explain whether the list prints both forms or whether one of the two records transcribed the other. The control itself is not in doubt. Which printed heading an officer will cite is. A note on script belongs with the duplication. This is one of only two accepted entries in this dossier printed in Latin, and the generic row's entry for the identical registry number is Cyrillic. Since every one of the 186 search terms logged across the dossier is Latin, a Latin spelling is also the only kind of entry a Latin search could have matched, which is a further reason to treat the two spellings as a defect in the record rather than as two real headings.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in the article. Because the active ingredient matches a heading at CAS 300-62-9, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands and those bands decide the grading. A mixed salt product raises a practical question this source does not answer, which is whether the band is applied to the total tablet mass or to the assayed base, and nothing here should be read as answering it. This source does not name a separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, and наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing a traveller. A scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. That is the whole of the country level rule this source states, and it is the ceiling of what can be said here. The placement attached to this row is a matched heading at CAS 300-62-9. Whether a foreign prescription for this branded stimulant is recognised at the Ukrainian border, and under what permit, was not established in this source and was not researched beyond it. Do not assume a home country prescription is sufficient.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's name, and a doctor's letter that names the active ingredient rather than only the brand, gives the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total quantity carried. The brand name is not what the Ukrainian list prints; the heading at CAS 300-62-9 is. Keep the quantity to the stated treatment period and declare it rather than waiting to be asked. Because the source shows two printed spellings at the same CAS, expect to be asked to establish the ingredient, and be able to do it from the pack. Read on 20 September 2026.

Alcohol

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine by a separate regime rather than by the narcotics list. Record UKR-15 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and that no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted for ethyl alcohol, and that the controls which do apply are the Ukrainian alcohol, food and excise rules on production, licensing, labelling, retail and duty. Two things follow and both belong here. The finding is that a different body of law governs the product. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from a single reading of the list, not an independent confirmation, and the source does not state which alcohol or excise instruments it read. The negative half needs one more qualification. The terms logged for the narcotics check are "alcohol" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, run against an annex this source records as printed in Cyrillic. A Latin search cannot match a Cyrillic heading, so the statement that no narcotics heading was accepted is unmeasured rather than confirmed. The separate regime finding does not depend on it.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling this source states, twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach ethyl alcohol because no accepted heading in Постанова № 770 was recorded for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it for the same reason. The exposure that does exist runs through the alcohol, excise and retail regime as licensing, duty and trading offences rather than as narcotics offences, and this source does not reproduce the articles, the fines or the thresholds of that regime. They are therefore not stated here, and a figure quoted from another country's alcohol law would not be Ukraine's. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule this source states concerns scheduled substances: no personal use allowance, наказ МОЗ № 188 as a criminal grading instrument, and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a scheduled medicine. Attached to this row, the placement is a separate regime finding under record UKR-15 and no accepted narcotics heading, so that rule does not engage and no prescription question arises for ethyl alcohol as a beverage. A medicinal or pharmaceutical preparation containing alcohol is governed as a medicine rather than by this row. The traveller limits that do apply, which are duty free and customs allowances, were not established in this source and were not researched.
Documentation: Carry the receipts and the customs declaration for any quantity above a personal allowance, because the Ukrainian controls on this product are excise and customs controls rather than narcotics controls, and it is duty and licensing that will be asked about. Carry the product in its retail packaging with intact duty marking where the retail country applies one. Record UKR-15 establishes only that no narcotics heading was accepted; it does not state the Ukrainian duty free allowance, so confirm the current customs allowance before travelling. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-15: the Ukrainian alcohol, food and excise legislation governs this product and the source names no specific instrument within it. The narcotics cross check is Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026, which returned no accepted heading for this product category. List ownership, стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори», https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/60/95-%D0%B2%D1%80#Text. The narcotics ceiling that does not apply here is Кримінальний кодекс України стаття 307, https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14#Text. Limitation: the narcotics cross check logged the product name in Latin lower case and capitals against a Cyrillic annex, so its negative is unmeasured · the separate regime finding is independent of it. · the article 44, 305, 307 and 309 penalties stated above are carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry, which cites the Criminal Code articles 305, 307, 309 and 310, the Code of Administrative Offenses article 44 and Ministry of Health Order No. 188. They were not re-derived from the Code in this pass, and the published entry's own hedges, that the thresholds are very low and that trace amounts have triggered article 309, are carried with them · Updated September 21, 2026

Amphetamine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own Cyrillic heading. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Амфетамін» and fixes it at CAS 300-62-9, and record UKR-18 accepts that row. The heading is given here in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. The same source separately reports a Latin spelling for the branded product row at the identical CAS 300-62-9, and that duplication is unexplained: either the list prints the substance twice in two alphabets or one of the two records transcribed the other. Nothing turns on it for the control itself, which is established, but a cell that quoted only one spelling would be hiding a discrepancy in its own source. Substance identity belongs to the Перелік under стаття 7 of the controlled substances law. Add the script point. The duplicate at the same registry number, on record UKR-14, is printed in Latin while this one is Cyrillic, and only two of the 43 accepted entries in this dossier are Latin at all. The tension is named here and in that row and it is not settled by either: the source does not say whether the annex prints this substance twice or whether one record transcribed the other.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. There is no death penalty in Ukrainian law. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part carries a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, with no life sentence in the article. The heading at CAS 300-62-9 is matched by name, so наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large figures and those figures decide which part of стаття 307 is engaged. This source does not reproduce them, so no weight is stated here. Because the same CAS appears under two spellings in the source, an officer's citation may differ from the spelling quoted in this cell without the substance being different. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: No personal use quantity is lawful in Ukraine, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing a traveller, and a scheduled medicine must also satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. This row's placement is a matched heading at CAS 300-62-9, and amphetamine reaches travellers mainly as a prescribed stimulant rather than as a bare substance. The mechanism by which such a prescription is recognised at the Ukrainian border, if it is, was not established in this source and was not researched beyond it. Carrying a prescription is necessary on this record and cannot be described as sufficient.
Documentation: Carry the prescription and the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, plus a prescriber's letter that names the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total quantity carried. Name the ingredient rather than the brand, because the Ukrainian heading at CAS 300-62-9 is what an officer matches against and the source shows that heading can be cited in either alphabet. Keep the quantity inside the stated treatment period and declare it on arrival. The consolidated list was read on 20 September 2026 and later amendments must be rechecked.

Ayahuasca

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine through its two active components and the list's plant note, not by a named brew entry. The list prints «ДМТ (диметилтриптамін)» with the chemical name «3-[2-(диметиламіно)етил]-індол» in Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено», and in the same list a row whose name column is empty and whose chemical name is «7-метокси-1-метил-9H-піридо[3,4-b]індол», which is the systematic name of harmine (PubChem CID 5280953). The note to that list says it also includes «рослини або їх частини, що містять будь-який засіб, включений до цього списку, і підлягають тим же заходам контролю, що і засіб;». The leaf that supplies the dimethyltryptamine and the vine that supplies harmine are therefore each reached by the note, and the brew is a preparation of both listed substances. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця I, Список № 2 through dimethyltryptamine and harmine, so the especially dangerous limb of articles 305 and 307 applies with no quantity condition. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 for a restricted substance, but part 2 reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби або психотропні речовини» without any quantity, so any sale of this row's substance carries six to ten years with confiscation of property, rising to nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, and eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2, which reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби чи психотропні речовини» with no quantity condition, so this row starts at part 2; an organised group or an especially large size gives ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: None. The heading of the list that carries this row says circulation is prohibited, «обіг яких заборонено», so no prescription, licence or foreign prescription can make carriage lawful in Ukraine. This run read no medicines or licensing law, and a prohibited heading leaves nothing for such law to authorise.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця I, Список № 2, the dimethyltryptamine row, the unnamed harmine row and the note to that list. Searched this run against the full list in Ukrainian and Latin: «айяуаска», «ayahuasca», «Banisteriopsis», «Psychotria» and «гармін» found no entry; «ДМТ» found the dimethyltryptamine row, and «піридо[3,4-b]» found the unnamed harmine row, confirmed against PubChem CID 5280953 at https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/5280953 on 3 October 2026, whose systematic name «7-methoxy-1-methyl-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole» is the same compound. The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written. A traveller should carry nothing in reliance on this row, and anyone carrying a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, strength and dose.

Benzodiazepines

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine member by member, and Ukraine's own list names the members, so this is a finding rather than a deferral. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints six of them with their own headings and CAS numbers: діазепам at CAS 439-14-5, алпразолам at CAS 28981-97-7, клоназепам at CAS 1622-61-3, лоразепам at CAS 846-49-1, етизолам at CAS 40054-69-1 and німетазепам at CAS 2011-67-8. The source's own class row, record UKR-22, calls the class not verified and rejects the алпразолам heading as a near comparison because it does not name the class label, while record UKR-16 accepts that same heading as printed. The two readings are in tension and the source does not settle whether the class label maps to anything. What is settled is that the members are printed individually, and that is what a traveller meets.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part carries a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, with no life sentence in the article. The grading does not run on the class at all: наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its small, large and especially large bands to individual headings, so the band that applies is the one for the particular member, and the six printed members each carry their own. A cell that gave one figure for the class would be giving a figure for none of them. This source does not reproduce the individual bands, and it names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity in the narcotics sense, uses наказ МОЗ № 188 to grade criminal conduct, and requires a scheduled medicine to satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is six individually printed headings, at CAS 439-14-5, CAS 28981-97-7, CAS 1622-61-3, CAS 846-49-1, CAS 40054-69-1 and CAS 2011-67-8, and these are ordinary prescribed medicines carried by ordinary travellers. The mechanism for recognising a foreign prescription at the Ukrainian border was not established in this source and was not researched. The prescription is necessary here and cannot be called sufficient on this record.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the specific member, its strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total number of tablets. Name the molecule, not the class, because Ukraine schedules the members individually and наказ МОЗ № 188 grades them individually. Keep the quantity within the stated treatment period, do not decant into unlabelled containers, and declare the medicine on arrival. The six member headings were read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026 and an amendment can add or move a member.

Buprenorphine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name, and it is also a medicine the state itself supplies. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints the heading «Бупренорфін» at CAS 52485-79-7, and record UKR-23 accepts that printed row rather than reasoning from the empowering provision. The heading is given here in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. Substance identity in Ukraine belongs to the Перелік, approved under стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори», and the criminal code never names a molecule. What this source does not state is which of таблиці I to IV the heading sits in, and for an opioid agonist used in substitution treatment the table is what decides the dispensing and record keeping regime.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence anywhere in the article. Because the heading at CAS 52485-79-7 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands and those bands decide which part of стаття 307 is engaged. For a sublingual product the bands bite quickly relative to the number of tablets a patient may hold, and this source does not reproduce the figures, so none is stated here. The source names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: No personal use quantity is lawful in Ukraine, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing a traveller, and a scheduled medicine must also satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Attached to this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 52485-79-7, and the usual carrier is a patient in opioid agonist treatment. Whether a course of treatment dispensed abroad can be carried into Ukraine, and under what permit, was not established in this source and was not researched. A treatment programme letter is not the same as a Ukrainian authorisation, and this record cannot say that one suffices.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's name, and a letter from the treating clinic naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the duration of treatment and the total quantity carried. For substitution treatment carry the programme's contact details and the prescriber's registration, because continuity of supply is the point and an interruption is a clinical event. Keep the quantity within the stated period. The heading at CAS 52485-79-7 was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026 and a later amendment can move it between tables.

Caffeine

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine as a food ingredient rather than as a scheduled substance. Record UKR-24 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted for caffeine, and that the controls which do apply are the Ukrainian food safety and labelling rules on composition, declaration and the warnings required on high caffeine drinks. The finding is that a different regime governs. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the list and not an independent confirmation, and the source names no specific food safety instrument, so none is cited here. Caffeine also appears as an ingredient in medicines, which are governed by the medicines law rather than by this row. Qualify the negative half. The narcotics check logs "caffeine" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, against an annex recorded as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have matched a Cyrillic heading whatever the true position. The food ingredient finding stands on its own footing and does not rest on that search.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling the source states, twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach caffeine because record UKR-24 accepted no heading for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it for the same reason. Exposure under the food regime is regulatory rather than criminal in the ordinary case, running to labelling, composition and marketing requirements enforced administratively, and this source reproduces none of those provisions or their penalties. No figure from another country's food law is carried over here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian rule this source states at country level, no personal use allowance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a scheduled medicine, does not engage on this row, because the placement recorded is a separate regime finding under record UKR-24 with no accepted narcotics heading. A caffeine containing medicine is handled as a medicine and a caffeine containing drink as a food. The customs and quantity rules for bringing food supplements into Ukraine were not established in this source and were not researched, so they are not stated here.
Documentation: Carry high dose caffeine supplements in their retail packaging with the ingredient declaration and the dose per unit visible, because the Ukrainian controls on this substance are food composition and labelling controls and an undeclared bulk powder is the case they are written for. Carry the pharmacy label for any medicine that contains caffeine as an ingredient. Record UKR-24 establishes only that no narcotics heading was accepted; it does not state a permitted quantity, so confirm the current food supplement import rules before travelling with bulk material. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-24: food safety and labelling legislation governs caffeine as a food ingredient, and the source names no individual instrument within that body of law. Narcotics cross check, Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026, no accepted heading. List ownership, стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори», https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/60/95-%D0%B2%D1%80#Text. The narcotics ceiling that does not apply here is Кримінальний кодекс України стаття 307, https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14#Text. Limitation: the narcotics cross check logged the substance name in Latin lower case and capitals against a Cyrillic annex, so its negative is unmeasured. · the article 44, 305, 307 and 309 penalties stated above are carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry, which cites the Criminal Code articles 305, 307, 309 and 310, the Code of Administrative Offenses article 44 and Ministry of Health Order No. 188. They were not re-derived from the Code in this pass, and the published entry's own hedges, that the thresholds are very low and that trace amounts have triggered article 309, are carried with them · Updated September 21, 2026

Cannabis / THC

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine as a plant, under a heading that says so. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Канабіс, рослина» at CAS 8063-14-7, and record UKR-26 accepts that row. The heading is given here in sentence case because the list prints in capitals, and the qualifier in it is load bearing: Ukraine lists the plant itself, and separately prints тетрагідроканабінол at CAS 5957-75-5 as an isolated molecule, so plant material and extracted cannabinoid are reached by two different headings. This source does not state which of таблиці I to IV either heading occupies, and it does not reproduce any industrial hemp threshold, so no percentage figure is asserted in this cell. and the annex places it among the restricted entries rather than the prohibited ones. The перелік approved by Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, in the redaction of 13 September 2025, prints «Канабіс, смола канабісу, екстракти і настойки канабісу» in Таблиця II, Список № 1, which is headed «Наркотичні засоби та рослини, обіг яких обмежено». The row sits between Фуретидин and the entry for the leaf of Mitragyna speciosa. Three things the applied cell asserted are wrong on the face of the list and are corrected here. The string «Канабіс, рослина» is not printed anywhere in this перелік. The list prints no Chemical Abstracts number against any row, because its two columns are the international non-proprietary name and the chemical name, and the cannabis row carries no chemical name at all, so a placement stated as being at a registry number was stated against a column this list does not have. And the list does say which table the entry occupies. The plant is a separate matter and is printed twice, as «Рослини роду коноплі (Cannabis)» in Таблиця I, Список № 3, for industrial cultivation, and again in Таблиця I, Список № 4, for teaching, research and the manufacture of narcotic, psychotropic and medicinal products. An industrial threshold is printed, contrary to the applied cell: the Примітка to Список № 3 permits industrial cultivation only from seed of varieties whose dried straw did not exceed 0,2 percent tetrahydrocannabinol, and states that from 16 February 2027 that ceiling becomes 0,3 percent. Read on 21 September 2026.
Consequences if caught: Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must also satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Attached to this row the placement is the plant heading at CAS 8063-14-7. Ukraine has legislated on medical cannabis in recent years, and this source states none of that framework: no authorisation route, no permitted product, no import permit and no rule recognising a foreign prescription was established here, and none was researched. That is a gap in this record and it is the one a patient most needs closed before travelling.The placement attached to this row is the printed entry «Канабіс, смола канабісу, екстракти і настойки канабісу» in Таблиця II, Список № 1, and that table is the restricted one rather than the prohibited one, which is the whole point of the correction: a restricted placement is the placement a medicinal route can run through, and a prohibited one is not. The source still establishes no Ukrainian authorisation route, no permitted product, no import permit and no rule recognising a foreign prescription, and none was researched. That remains the gap a patient most needs closed before travelling.
Documentation: Carry nothing on the basis that cannabis is lawful where it was bought. If a cannabis based medicine has been prescribed, carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's name, a prescriber's letter naming the product, the cannabinoid content, the dose and the treatment period, and confirm the Ukrainian authorisation route in advance rather than at the border. Herbal material carries the plant heading at CAS 8063-14-7 and an extract can engage the separate heading at CAS 5957-75-5. Both were read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.Name the material the way the annex names it. Herbal material, resin, extracts and tinctures are all inside the single printed entry in Таблиця II, Список № 1, and the growing plant is a separate pair of entries in Таблиця I, Списки № 3 and № 4. Do not quote a registry number at a Ukrainian officer as though the annex carried one, because it does not. Read on 21 September 2026.

Cathinone

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name as the parent alkaloid. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Катинон» at CAS 71031-15-7, and record UKR-27 accepts that printed row. The heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. Two consequences follow from this being the parent rather than a class. The list also prints particular synthetic derivatives under their own headings, which is how a schedule behaves when the parent heading is not being read as a bounded class. And the plant that produces this alkaloid is a separate question that this source left unresolved on its own row, so a finding here is not a finding about leaf material. Identity belongs to the Перелік under стаття 7 of the controlled substances law.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in the article. The heading at CAS 71031-15-7 is matched, so наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule. Because the alkaloid is unstable and occurs at low and falling concentration in plant material, the practical grading question is an assay question, and this source reproduces neither the bands nor any rule on how a plant matrix is weighed. No figure is stated here and no separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing a traveller, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 71031-15-7, and there is no authorised Ukrainian medicine built on this alkaloid, so no prescription route arises for it. Beyond the country rule the source establishes no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched. Traditional or customary use elsewhere creates no Ukrainian permission.
Documentation: Carry an assay rather than a plant name if any material is being carried, because the Ukrainian heading at CAS 71031-15-7 is written to the alkaloid and the practical dispute will be about how much of it the material contains. Do not rely on a description of the material as a herb or a chew. A traveller carrying a prescribed stimulant that might be confused with a cathinone should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter with the ingredient, strength, dose and treatment period. The heading was read on 20 September 2026.

Clonazepam

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own printed heading. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Клоназепам» at CAS 1622-61-3, and record UKR-29 accepts that row rather than reasoning from the empowering provision. The heading appears here in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. This is one of the six benzodiazepines the Ukrainian list names individually, which is why the class question on the separate class row of this source does not govern the answer for this molecule: the member is printed and the member is what an officer matches. It is also a first line anticonvulsant, so the row is simultaneously a scheduled heading and a long term prescription medicine under Закон України «Про лікарські засоби».
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence anywhere in the article. Because the heading at CAS 1622-61-3 is matched by name, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule specifically rather than for the benzodiazepine class. For a low milligram tablet the band is reached at a tablet count a patient can plausibly be carrying, which is the real risk on this row. This source does not reproduce the figures, so none is stated, and it names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity in the narcotics sense, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 1622-61-3 and the typical traveller is an epilepsy patient carrying a continuing supply. The mechanism for recognising a foreign prescription at the Ukrainian border, and any permit for carrying a treatment course, was not established in this source and was not researched. The prescription is necessary on this record and cannot be described as sufficient.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period, the diagnosis and the total number of tablets. For an anticonvulsant carry enough for the trip plus a margin, and be able to justify that margin from the letter, because наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its bands to the heading at CAS 1622-61-3 without regard to why the tablets are held.

Cocaine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Кокаїн» at CAS 50-36-2, and record UKR-30 accepts that row; the heading is given in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. One feature of the source deserves recording on this cell rather than being left buried. This heading was used sixteen times in the same document as the near comparison inspected and rejected for unrelated substances, including tryptamines, arylcyclohexylamines and cannabinoids, none of which is a neighbour of a tropane ester. That makes the heading itself well established and the near comparison column around it close to worthless, which is a caution about the source rather than about the control.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has abolished the death penalty and no drug article restores it. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part carries a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, and no life sentence is provided in the article. Because the heading at CAS 50-36-2 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands and those bands decide which part of стаття 307 is engaged. The same heading covers the salt and the base, which is why a preparation row elsewhere in this source resolves onto this identical heading. This source does not reproduce the gram figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must also satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 50-36-2. A topical medical preparation of this substance exists in some health systems, and this source establishes no Ukrainian authorisation for one, no import permit and no recognition of a foreign prescription. None was researched. Do not assume a clinical use abroad creates a route into Ukraine.
Documentation: Carry nothing that relies on a foreign supply document. If a medical preparation containing this substance has genuinely been prescribed, carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the concentration, the dose, the treatment period and the total quantity, and obtain the Ukrainian authorisation before travelling rather than at the border. The heading at CAS 50-36-2 was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026 and a later amendment can move it between tables.

Codeine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Кодеїн» at CAS 76-57-3 and record UKR-31 accepts that printed row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The question this row always raises is preparations, because codeine reaches travellers mostly as a low strength combination analgesic or a cough syrup rather than as the pure alkaloid. This source records the heading and does not reproduce any exempted preparation limb, any strength threshold or any table assignment, so nothing is asserted here about combination products. Treat the heading as established and the preparation question as unread rather than as answered in the traveller's favour.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian criminal law provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 76-57-3 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. For a combination tablet the live question is whether the band is applied to the codeine content or to the whole preparation, and this source answers neither, so no figure and no rule of calculation is stated in this cell. The source names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 76-57-3. Many travellers carry codeine combinations bought without a prescription at home, and this source establishes no Ukrainian rule that recognises that, no import permit and no personal allowance. None was researched. A product that was sold over the counter elsewhere should not be assumed to be over the counter here.
Documentation: Carry the prescription even where the product was bought without one at home, together with the original pack showing the codeine content per unit, the pharmacy label in the patient's name where there is one, and a doctor's letter naming the active ingredients, the strength, the dose, the treatment period and the quantity carried. State the codeine content explicitly, because the Ukrainian heading at CAS 76-57-3 is written to the alkaloid and this source does not record any exempted preparation limb. Keep the quantity modest and declare it. Read on 20 September 2026.

Crack Cocaine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine, and controlled as the same substance rather than as a separate one. Record UKR-32 resolves this street form onto the printed heading «Кокаїн» at CAS 50-36-2 in Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, which is the same heading record UKR-30 accepts for the alkaloid itself. The point of the row is that Ukraine does not schedule a preparation under its street name: the base and the salt are the same molecule and the list reaches both through one heading in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. Nothing in this source suggests a separate heading, a separate table or an aggravating limb for the smokeable form, and none is asserted.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the material resolves onto the heading at CAS 50-36-2, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the bands through that heading and the grading question becomes a weight and purity question rather than a question about the form. Whether the band is applied to the whole rock or to the assayed base is exactly the point this source does not address, so no figure and no method of calculation is stated here. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing a traveller, and a scheduled medicine must also satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is the heading at CAS 50-36-2 reached through record UKR-32. There is no medicinal product in this form and therefore no prescription question at all: a free base prepared for smoking is not a pharmaceutical presentation anywhere. No import permit, allowance or foreign prescription rule was established here, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on this row, because there is no lawful carriage of this material and no document that makes it lawful. The entry exists so that a reader is not told a street form is unlisted merely because the list does not print its street name: the substance is reached at CAS 50-36-2. A traveller carrying a prescribed medicine that has been mistaken for it should carry the dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the ingredient, strength, dose and treatment period. The heading was read on 20 September 2026.

Delta-8-THC

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine through the isolated cannabinoid heading. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Тетрагідроканабінол» and record UKR-33 fixes the match at CAS 5957-75-5, which is the double bond isomer rather than the more familiar one. The heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. That the source pins a generic sounding heading to this particular isomer's registry number is the whole of the row, and it cuts both ways: it establishes that this isomer is reached, and it leaves unread whether the heading names other isomers as well or is drafted as a bounded class. The plant itself is a separate heading at CAS 8063-14-7 in the same list.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law carries no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in the article. Because the heading matched at CAS 5957-75-5 is a listed heading, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for it. For a vape liquid or an edible the band is applied to a preparation whose cannabinoid content varies widely, and this source reproduces neither the figures nor any rule about how a preparation is weighed, so nothing of that kind is stated here. No separate possession article is named by the source. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Attached to this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 5957-75-5. Products carrying this isomer are usually sold as consumer goods rather than as medicines, and this source establishes no Ukrainian authorisation, no import permit and no recognition of a foreign prescription for any of them. None was researched. Being on sale in a shop abroad is not a medical route.
Documentation: Carry a certificate of analysis giving the isomer and its content, because the Ukrainian match is pinned to CAS 5957-75-5 specifically and a product label that says only a cannabinoid name does not answer the isomer question. Carry the retail packaging with the ingredient declaration. A prescribed cannabis based medicine should travel with its prescription, the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name and a prescriber's letter naming the product, content, dose and treatment period. The heading was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

Diazepam

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own printed heading, and it is an ordinary prescription medicine at the same time. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Діазепам» at CAS 439-14-5 and record UKR-34 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. Being listed in Ukraine does not make this a narcotic drug in the sense a traveller fears, and nothing in this source supports describing it that way. It is one of six benzodiazepines the Ukrainian list names individually, it is dispensed on prescription under Закон України «Про лікарські засоби», and the table it occupies is not stated by this source.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty, and no life sentence is provided by Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, the trade article this source names. That article's third part carries a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, and it is the ceiling for trafficking conduct, not the tariff for a patient with a prescription. Because the heading at CAS 439-14-5 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its small, large and especially large bands to this molecule individually. This source does not reproduce the figures, so no tablet count is stated here, and it names no separate possession article. Do not read the trafficking ceiling as the exposure of a prescribed traveller. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity in the narcotics sense, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 439-14-5 carried by a very large number of ordinary patients. What this source does not establish is the traveller mechanism: no import permit procedure, no personal quantity allowance and no rule recognising a foreign prescription was found, and none was researched. The prescription is necessary on this record. It cannot be called sufficient, and it must not be described as useless either.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total number of tablets. Keep the quantity inside that stated period, because the Ukrainian bands under наказ МОЗ № 188 attach to the heading at CAS 439-14-5 regardless of the reason the tablets are held. Do not decant into a pill organiser without keeping the labelled pack. Declare the medicine on arrival rather than waiting to be asked. The heading was read on 20 September 2026.

DMT

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under a Cyrillic abbreviation of its chemical name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «ДМТ» at CAS 61-50-7 and record UKR-35 accepts that row. Two other rows of the same source lean on this heading and neither is settled by it. The brew that usually carries this alkaloid was left unresolved at record UKR-20 because composition was never proved, and the methoxylated derivative was left unresolved at record UKR-11 because the source never read whether this heading is drafted narrowly or as a bounded class. So the molecule is listed, and the reach of the heading beyond the molecule is unread.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian criminal law provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part sets a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, with no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 61-50-7 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this alkaloid. Where the material is a plant preparation rather than the isolated alkaloid, the band has to be applied to an assayed content, and this source states neither the figures nor any rule for weighing a preparation. No separate possession article is named by the source. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must also satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 61-50-7 and there is no authorised Ukrainian medicine containing this alkaloid, so no prescription route arises. Clinical trial supply, religious practice or lawful ceremonial use in another country creates no Ukrainian authorisation, and the source establishes no import permit, no allowance and no foreign prescription rule. None was researched.
Documentation: Carry an analysis rather than a description if any material is involved, because the Ukrainian heading at CAS 61-50-7 is written to the molecule and both of the neighbouring rows in this source failed on identity and composition rather than on the name. Plant material should carry its botanical identification and its assayed alkaloid content. A traveller with a prescribed medicine should carry the dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the ingredient, strength, dose and treatment period.

DOM

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under a three letter Cyrillic heading. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «ДОМ» at CAS 15588-95-1 and record UKR-36 accepts that printed row. The heading is an abbreviation rather than a spelled out chemical name, which is how this list handles several of the substituted amphetamines, and it is fixed to the molecule by the registry number rather than by the letters. That matters on this row because the same list also prints headings for other ring substituted phenethylamines while leaving the series relatives at records UKR-05, UKR-06 and UKR-07 unmatched: Ukraine schedules these compounds one by one and not as a family.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 15588-95-1 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule. This compound is active at very low doses, so the quantity that reaches a band is small in absolute terms and a blotter or tablet count is not a safe proxy for it. This source does not reproduce the figures, so none is stated, and it names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing a traveller, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 15588-95-1 and no authorised Ukrainian medicine is built on this molecule, so the prescription limb does not arise. The source establishes no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched. Do not construct a medical route for a compound that has none.
Documentation: Carry no expectation that a supplier document assists. The Ukrainian heading is keyed to CAS 15588-95-1 and an officer will match the molecule, not the packaging. A traveller carrying a prescribed medicine that might be confused with a substituted amphetamine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose and the treatment period, and should keep the quantity within that period. The heading was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

DXM

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine as a medicine rather than as a scheduled substance. Record UKR-37 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched under the abbreviation and the full name and that no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the regime which applies is Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» with its controls on authorisation, prescription status, labelling, import and customs. The finding is the medicines regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the consolidated list, not an independent confirmation, and this source does not state whether the product is prescription only or available without one in Ukraine. The negative half is unmeasured. The narcotics check logs "DXM" and "dekstrometorfan", both Latin and the second one of a recurring set of South Slavic transliterations, run against an annex this source records as printed in Cyrillic. That search could not match a Cyrillic heading, so no absence is established and the medicines finding carries the cell on its own.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law has no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling the source names, twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach this substance on this record because no heading was accepted for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it for the same reason. The exposure that exists runs through the medicines regime, as supply without authorisation, sale outside a pharmacy or import of an unauthorised product, and this source reproduces none of those provisions or their penalties, so no article and no figure is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule this source states, no personal use allowance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a scheduled medicine, engages here only through its medicines limb, because record UKR-37 records a separate regime finding and no accepted narcotics heading. So the product travels as a medicine. Whether Ukraine treats it as prescription only, what quantity a traveller may bring for personal use and whether a foreign prescription is recognised were not established in this source and were not researched, so none of that is stated.
Documentation: Carry the cough or cold preparation in its original retail or dispensing pack with the ingredient declaration showing the content per dose, because record UKR-37 places this substance in the medicines regime and that regime turns on what the product is and how it is presented. Where it was dispensed on prescription, carry the prescription and the pharmacy label in the patient's name, and a prescriber's letter for anything beyond a short course. Carry a quantity consistent with personal use over the trip. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-37: Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» governs this substance as a medicinal product, and the source names no article within that law. Narcotics cross check, Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026, no accepted heading.

Ephedrine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name, and the instrument that lists it covers more than narcotic and psychotropic substances. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Ефедрин» at CAS 299-42-3 and record UKR-38 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The Перелік approved under стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори» is a list of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and precursors, and this source does not say which of those parts, or which of таблиці I to IV, this heading occupies. That distinction decides which offences and which controls apply, and it is unread here.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian criminal law provides no death penalty. The article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in it, and наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for listed headings. What this source does not do is tell a reader whether the offences for a precursor are the same offences, and Ukrainian law commonly treats precursor conduct under provisions of its own. Because the source names no precursor article, none is cited here and no figure is stated. Treat the applicable offence as unread rather than as стаття 307 by default. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity of a listed substance, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a medicine must also satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 299-42-3, and this substance reaches travellers both as a medicine and as a herbal preparation. The source establishes no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched. A nasal or bronchodilator product bought without prescription abroad should not be assumed to travel freely.
Documentation: Carry the original pack with the ingredient declaration showing the content per dose, the prescription where there is one and the pharmacy label in the patient's name, plus a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the dose and the treatment period. Declare herbal preparations that contain this alkaloid rather than relying on their being sold as supplements, because the Ukrainian heading at CAS 299-42-3 is written to the alkaloid. Keep the quantity to a plainly personal amount, since bulk quantity is what a precursor control is written for. The heading was read on 20 September 2026.

Etizolam

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own printed heading. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Етизолам» at CAS 40054-69-1 and record UKR-39 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. The listing is worth stating precisely, because this molecule is a thienodiazepine rather than a true benzodiazepine and many schedules that reach the class by a structural formula miss it. Ukraine does not have that problem here: the heading names the compound. It is one of six members of the wider diazepine group that this list prints individually, which is why the class question raised on the class row of this source does not govern this answer.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence provided in the article. Because the heading at CAS 40054-69-1 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its small, large and especially large bands to this molecule. This compound is potent at sub milligram doses and is commonly sold on unmarked blotter or pellets, so the assayed content rather than the item count is what the band will be applied to. This source reproduces no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity in the narcotics sense, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 40054-69-1. This compound is a licensed medicine in a small number of countries and not in most, and this source establishes no Ukrainian authorisation, no import permit and no recognition of a foreign prescription. None was researched. A prescription written where the product is licensed does not by itself answer the Ukrainian question.
Documentation: Carry the prescription and the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name where the product was lawfully prescribed, with a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total quantity. Name the molecule rather than calling it a benzodiazepine, because Ukraine prints it under its own heading at CAS 40054-69-1 and the class label resolves nothing. Unlabelled pellets or blotter should not be carried at all. The heading was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

Fentanyl

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Фентаніл» at CAS 437-38-7 and record UKR-40 accepts that printed row; the heading is given in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. The heading is the parent molecule. This source records no analogue clause, no limb reaching structurally related compounds and no separate headings for the clinical derivatives, so nothing is asserted here about any analogue: on this reading, a derivative would have to be matched to a heading of its own. The table the heading occupies is not stated either, which for a clinical opioid is what determines the dispensing and record keeping controls.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has abolished the death penalty and no drug article restores it. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part carries a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, and the source records that no life sentence is provided in the article. Because the heading at CAS 437-38-7 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. This substance is active at microgram doses, so the especially large band is reached at a mass that is trivially portable, and that is the single most important practical fact on this row. The source states no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 437-38-7, and the usual traveller is a palliative or chronic pain patient carrying a transdermal patch or a buccal product. The mechanism for bringing such a product into Ukraine, and any permit for it, was not established in this source and was not researched. Arrange the route with the Ukrainian authorities before travelling rather than relying on the prescription alone.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the product form, the strength, the dose, the treatment period, the diagnosis and the total quantity including used and unused patches. Carry a plan for disposing of used patches, since residual content remains in them. Keep the quantity to the stated period and declare it on arrival. The heading at CAS 437-38-7 was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026 and later amendments must be rechecked.

Gabapentin

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine as a medicine rather than as a scheduled substance, on this reading. Record UKR-41 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the regime which applies is Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» with its controls on authorisation, prescription status, labelling, import and customs. The finding is the medicines regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the consolidated list rather than an independent confirmation, and gabapentinoids have been moved into control in a number of countries in recent years, so this is a row to recheck against the current list rather than to rely on. The recheck flag now has a concrete reason attached to it. The narcotics check logs "gabapentin" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, against an annex recorded as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have matched a Cyrillic heading. The negative is unmeasured rather than merely old, and that is the stronger reason to verify the current list.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach this substance on this record because record UKR-41 accepted no heading for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it for the same reason. The exposure that exists is under the medicines regime, for supply without authorisation or import of an unauthorised product, and this source reproduces none of those provisions or their penalties, so no article and no figure is stated. If the substance has since been scheduled, the narcotics figures would attach and this record would be stale. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule has three parts and only one of them reaches this row. There is no personal use allowance for a scheduled substance; наказ МОЗ № 188 sets criminal grading bands rather than a traveller's allowance; and any medicine must satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Only the third part engages here, because record UKR-41 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading, so a traveller is carrying a prescription medicine rather than a scheduled substance. Beyond that, nothing was established: not whether Ukraine treats the product as prescription only, not what personal import quantity is permitted, and not whether a foreign prescription is recognised. None of it was researched. Carry the prescription anyway, because a prescription only medicine crossing a border is a customs question in every system. None of that was established in this source and none of it was researched beyond it, so it is recorded here as not established rather than settled.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total quantity carried, together with the indication, since this medicine is prescribed for several unrelated conditions. Keep the quantity within the stated period. Because record UKR-41 rests on a negative reading of the narcotics list, recheck the current consolidated Перелік before travelling. The list was read on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-41: Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» governs this substance as a medicinal product, and the source names no article within that law. Narcotics cross check, Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026, no accepted heading · gabapentinoids have been scheduled nationally in several countries since this instrument was last consolidated, so this negative record carries a recheck flag.

GBL

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as a psychotropic substance whose circulation is restricted, with one printed exclusion. The list prints «Гама-бутиролактон» in Таблиця III, Список № 2, headed «Психотропні речовини, обіг яких обмежено і стосовно яких допускаються виключення деяких заходів контролю», the same list that carries «GHB». The position was suspended three times between 2011 and 2012, the last suspension running «до 1 червня 2012 р.», so it has been in force since then. The note to the list says «До цього списку не включається гама-бутиролактон, який у кількості, що не перевищує 15 відсотків, входить до складу засобів захисту рослин, на які Міндовкіллям видано посвідчення про державну реєстрацію.», so only a registered plant protection product containing no more than 15 percent is outside it. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця III, Список № 2, a restricted rather than prohibited list, so article 307 starts at part 1 and the especially dangerous limb does not apply. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 with no confiscation, six to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group, a large size or sale in a place of mass gathering, and nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group or a large size, and ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group or an especially large size. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: This compound has no medical use a traveller can rely on, and the only printed exclusion is for registered plant protection products. Cleaning, solvent or wheel cleaner products containing it are not excluded by the list, and no licensing law was read in this run.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця III, Список № 2, named row, its three suspension notes and the note to that list. Searched this run against the full list: «бутиролактон» matched the named row and the exclusion in the note; «GBL» in Latin found no entry; «1,4-бутандіол» matched a precursor in Таблиця IV, Список № 2, a related solvent read and set aside. The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written. A traveller should carry nothing in reliance on this row, and anyone carrying a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, strength and dose.

GHB

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine, and the heading names a salt rather than the acid. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Оксибутират натрію (ГОМК)» at CAS 591-81-1 and record UKR-43 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The bracketed Cyrillic abbreviation in the heading is the list's own. The precision of the heading is the point of this cell. It is written to the sodium salt, and this source does not state whether the free acid, another salt or the lactone are reached by it; the lactone was in fact left unresolved at record UKR-42 of the same source. So the substance is listed and the boundary of the heading is unread.printed heading names the acid and not a salt. The перелік approved by Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, in the redaction of 13 September 2025, prints the row «GHB» against the chemical name «γ-оксимасляна кислота» in Таблиця III, Список № 2, headed «Психотропні речовини, обіг яких обмежено і стосовно яких допускаються виключення деяких заходів контролю». It sits between Циклобарбітал and Золпідем (INN). The applied cell has this the wrong way round: it reported a heading «Оксибутират натрію (ГОМК)» written to the sodium salt at a registry number, and neither that string nor any registry number is printed in this list. The lactone is not unresolved either. «Гама-бутиролактон» is printed as its own row in the same Список № 2, and the Примітка to that list says the list does not include gamma butyrolactone where it makes up no more than 15 percent of a plant protection product holding a state registration certificate from Міндовкілля. The same Примітка extends the list to the salts of everything in it where such salts can exist. Read on 21 September 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part sets a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, with no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 591-81-1 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. This substance is usually encountered as a dilute aqueous solution, so whether the band is applied to the volume of liquid or to the assayed content of the salt decides the grading, and this source answers neither question, so no figure and no method is stated here. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.The matched row is «GHB» against «γ-оксимасляна кислота» in Таблиця III, Список № 2, so наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for that row. This substance is usually encountered as a dilute aqueous solution, so whether the band is applied to the volume of liquid or to the assayed content decides the grading, and this source answers neither question, so no figure and no method is stated here. A product described as the lactone has its own printed row in the same list and is graded on that row instead. No separate possession article is named.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 591-81-1. This salt has a genuine licensed medical use for narcolepsy and for alcohol withdrawal in some countries, and this source establishes no Ukrainian authorised product, no import permit and no recognition of a foreign prescription. None was researched. A patient on this medicine should settle the route in advance rather than at the border.The placement on this row is the printed row «GHB» against «γ-оксимасляна кислота» in Таблиця III, Список № 2, and that list is the one for psychotropic substances of restricted circulation from which some control measures may be excepted.

Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the salt, the concentration, the nightly dose, the treatment period, the diagnosis and the total volume carried. State the salt precisely, because the Ukrainian heading at CAS 591-81-1 is written to the sodium form and the source does not say what else it reaches.

Heroin

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Героїн» at CAS 561-27-3 and record UKR-44 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The registry number fixes the diacetyl ester rather than the parent alkaloid, which the same list prints separately at CAS 57-27-2, so Ukraine reaches the two through different headings and a match on one is not a match on the other. This source does not state which of таблиці I to IV the heading occupies, and it records no limb about preparations, so nothing is asserted here about street material of low purity beyond the identity of the molecule.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine abolished the death penalty and no drug article restores it, so the heaviest exposure stated by this source is imprisonment. The trade article is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years at its third part and no life sentence provided anywhere in the article. Because the heading at CAS 561-27-3 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. Street material is heavily adulterated, so whether the band applies to the total mass or to the assayed diacetyl content decides most cases, and this source states neither the figures nor the method. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 561-27-3. Diamorphine is a licensed analgesic in a small number of health systems, and this source establishes no Ukrainian authorisation for it, no import permit and no recognition of a foreign prescription. None was researched. Do not assume that a clinical use elsewhere creates any route into Ukraine.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on this row. There is no ordinary lawful carriage of this substance into Ukraine and no document that creates one on this record. A patient in opioid agonist treatment travels on the substitution medicine and its documents rather than on this heading, and should carry the prescription, the dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name and a clinic letter giving the ingredient, the dose and the duration of treatment. The heading at CAS 561-27-3 was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

HHC

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as a psychotropic substance whose circulation is restricted. The list prints «Hexahydrocannabinol» «(Гексагідроканабінол; HHC; HXC)» with the chemical name «6a,7,8,9,10,10a-гексагідро-6,6,9-триметил-3-пентил-6H-дибензо[b,d]піран-1-ол» in Таблиця II, Список № 2, headed «Психотропні речовини, обіг яких обмежено».

This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця II, Список № 2, a restricted rather than prohibited list, so article 307 starts at part 1 and the especially dangerous limb does not apply. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 with no confiscation, six to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group, a large size or sale in a place of mass gathering, and nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group or a large size, and ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group or an especially large size. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: Restricted, not prohibited, under the heading «обіг яких обмежено», but this run found no Ukrainian authorised medicine containing hexahydrocannabinol and read no licensing law, so a product bought legally elsewhere as a hemp or vape product gives no cover in Ukraine.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця II, Список № 2, the hexahydrocannabinol rows; Постанова № 146, item 2. Searched this run against the full list and the amending act in Latin and Cyrillic: «HHC» matched four rows of the list, this one, the acetate, the heptyl homologue and the hexyl homologue «HHCH», and the amending act's hydroxylated heptyl row; «Hexahydrocannabinol» and «гексагідроканабінол» matched this row and the acetate. Every other match was read and set aside as a different compound. The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written. A traveller should carry nothing in reliance on this row, and anyone carrying a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, strength and dose.

HHC in Ukraine, full detail →

Hydrocodone

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Гідрокодон» at CAS 125-29-1 and record UKR-46 accepts that printed row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. This semisynthetic opioid is dispensed almost entirely as a combination product with a non opioid analgesic, and this source records no exempted preparation limb, no strength threshold and no table assignment for the heading, so nothing is asserted about combinations. The heading names the molecule, and a combination product contains the molecule. That is the whole of what this reading establishes.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 125-29-1 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. For a combination tablet the live question is whether the band applies to the opioid content or to the mass of the whole preparation, and this source answers neither, so no figure and no method of calculation is stated here. The source names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 125-29-1, and the typical traveller is a pain patient carrying a combination analgesic prescribed elsewhere. This source establishes no Ukrainian import permit, no personal allowance and no rule recognising a foreign prescription, and none was researched. Prescription status in the country of dispensing does not answer the Ukrainian question.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack showing the opioid content per tablet, the pharmacy label in the patient's own name and a prescriber's letter naming both active ingredients, the strength of each, the daily dose, the treatment period, the indication and the total quantity. State the opioid content explicitly rather than only the brand, because the Ukrainian heading at CAS 125-29-1 is written to the molecule. Keep the quantity within the stated period and declare it on arrival. Read on 20 September 2026.

Ketamine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name, and it is a working hospital and veterinary anaesthetic at the same time. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Кетамін» at CAS 6740-88-1 and record UKR-47 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. The registry number fixes the racemate, and this source does not say whether the single enantiomer product used in some health systems is reached by the same heading or by one of its own. Two other rows of this source, records UKR-02 and UKR-67, were left unresolved precisely because nobody read whether this heading is drafted to reach ring modified relatives.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part sets a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, with no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 6740-88-1 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule. Material is commonly encountered either as a clinical solution in a vial or as a powder, and whether the band is applied to the solution volume or to the assayed content is not addressed by this source, so no figure and no method is stated. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309.

If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 6740-88-1 and there are genuine clinical, veterinary and psychiatric uses, including treatment resistant depression programmes. This source establishes no Ukrainian authorisation route for a patient carrying such a product, no import permit and no recognition of a foreign prescription. None was researched. Do not assume a clinic letter substitutes for a national authorisation.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing or hospital pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient and its form, the concentration, the dose, the treatment period, the indication and the total quantity. A veterinarian travelling with clinical stock should carry the practice authorisation and the controlled drug register entries rather than a personal prescription. Keep the quantity within the stated period and declare it. The heading at CAS 6740-88-1 was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

Khat

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine through cathinone and the list's plant note, not by a named plant entry. The list prints «Катинон» with the chemical name «(-)-(S)-2-амінопропіофенон» in Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено», and the note to that list says it also includes «рослини або їх частини, що містять будь-який засіб, включений до цього списку, і підлягають тим же заходам контролю, що і засіб;». Khat leaf contains cathinone, so the note puts the leaf under the same prohibited heading. The leaf's other alkaloid is printed separately as «Катин ((+)-норпсевдоефедрин)» in Таблиця III, Список № 2, a restricted list, but the cathinone placement is the stricter of the two and governs the fresh leaf. Methcathinone is a third, unrelated row, «Меткатинон (ефедрон)» in Таблиця I, Список № 1. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця I, Список № 2 through cathinone, so the especially dangerous limb of articles 305 and 307 applies to the leaf with no quantity condition. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 for a restricted substance, but part 2 reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби або психотропні речовини» without any quantity, so any sale of this row's substance carries six to ten years with confiscation of property, rising to nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, and eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2, which reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби чи психотропні речовини» with no quantity condition, so this row starts at part 2; an organised group or an especially large size gives ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: None. The heading of the list that carries this row says circulation is prohibited, «обіг яких заборонено», so no prescription, licence or foreign prescription can make carriage lawful in Ukraine. This run read no medicines or licensing law, and a prohibited heading leaves nothing for such law to authorise.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця I, Список № 2, cathinone row and note; Таблиця III, Список № 2, cathine row. Searched this run against the full list in Ukrainian and Latin: «Catha», «кат (» and «khat» found no entry; «Катинон» matched the cathinone row and eleven synthetic cathinone rows, methcathinone among them, each read and set aside; «Катин» matched those and the cathine row. The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written.

Kratom

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine as a narcotic plant by its own named entry. The list prints «Листя (подрібнене чи ціле) рослини Mitragyna speciosa (Кратом (kratom, ketum, biak)» in Таблиця II, Список № 1, headed «Наркотичні засоби та рослини, обіг яких обмежено», followed immediately by its two alkaloids, «Мітрагінін (Mitragynine)» and «7-Гідроксимітрагінін» «(7-hydroxymitragynine; 7-ОН; 7-HMG)». The entry names the leaf whole or crushed and gives the trade names kratom, ketum and biak. An earlier reading of this row recorded no match for the leaf. The entry prints both the botanical name and the word kratom in Latin script, so that record was wrong, and a Latin search against a Cyrillic table does not explain it. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026.

The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця II, Список № 1, a restricted rather than prohibited list, so article 307 starts at part 1 and the especially dangerous limb does not apply. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 with no confiscation, six to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group, a large size or sale in a place of mass gathering, and nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group or a large size, and ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group or an especially large size. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Public use, or use by a group in a place of mass gathering, is criminal under article 316 for «наркотичних засобів», restriction of liberty of up to four years or imprisonment of up to three years; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1, for narcotic drugs, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20240814180400/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/z0512-00/print on 3 October 2026 in the redaction of 1 March 2022 with a currency line of 14 August 2024, has no row for kratom leaf or either alkaloid, so no gram figure is stated here; that reading is old and does not rule out a later row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: Restricted, not prohibited: the list heading reads «обіг яких обмежено», which leaves room for licensed circulation, but this run read no licensing or medicines law and found no Ukrainian authorised product made from this leaf or its alkaloids, so a traveller has no established route. Sale as a herbal product or supplement in another country gives no Ukrainian cover.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця II, Список № 1, the leaf row and its two alkaloid rows. Searched this run against the full list: «Mitragyna», «Кратом» and «kratom» each matched the leaf row only, and «мітрагінін» matched the two alkaloid rows beneath it. The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written. A traveller should carry nothing in reliance on this row, and anyone carrying a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, strength and dose.

Lorazepam

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own printed heading. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Лоразепам» at CAS 846-49-1 and record UKR-50 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. It is one of six members of the diazepine group that the Ukrainian list names individually, so the unresolved class row in this source does not govern the answer for this molecule. Alongside the listing it is an authorised medicine used for anxiety, for status epilepticus and in palliative care, which means the row carries a scheduled heading and a medicines regime under Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» at the same time.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty, and Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, the trade article this source names, provides no life sentence and carries a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part. That is a trafficking ceiling and not a tariff for a patient. Because the heading at CAS 846-49-1 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its small, large and especially large bands to this molecule individually rather than to the class. The tablets are low milligram, so the count that reaches a band can be a count a patient plausibly carries. The source gives no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity in the narcotics sense, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 846-49-1 and the usual carrier is a patient on a short or continuing course. The traveller mechanism was not established in this source: no import permit, no personal allowance and no rule recognising a foreign prescription. None was researched. The prescription is necessary on this record and cannot be described as sufficient.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total number of tablets. For an injectable emergency supply carry the indication and the clinician's contact details as well. Keep the quantity inside the stated period, do not decant, and declare the medicine on arrival, since наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its bands to the heading at CAS 846-49-1 whatever the reason for carriage. Read on 20 September 2026.

LSD

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under the international non proprietary name with the familiar abbreviation in brackets. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Лізергід (ЛСД)» at CAS 50-37-3 and record UKR-52 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals and the bracketed abbreviation is the list's own. Because the heading names the diethylamide specifically, two relatives in this source were left unresolved against it: the propionyl derivative at record UKR-01 and the unsubstituted amide at record UKR-51. So the molecule is listed and the reach of the heading across the lysergamides is unread.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine abolished the death penalty and no drug provision restores it. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part sets a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, with no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 50-37-3 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. The substance is active at microgram doses and is carried on blotter, so whether a band is applied to the mass of the paper or to the assayed content of the drug decides almost every case, and this source addresses neither. No figure is stated and no separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 50-37-3 and there is no authorised Ukrainian medicine containing it, so no prescription route arises. Participation in a clinical trial abroad is not a Ukrainian authorisation. The source establishes no import permit, no allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on this row, because no lawful carriage of this substance into Ukraine is established by it and no document creates one. The entry is here so that a reader understands the heading at CAS 50-37-3 is a listed heading with a quantity band behind it. A traveller carrying a prescribed medicine that has been confused with blotter material should carry the dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the ingredient, strength, dose and period. Read on 20 September 2026.

MDA

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under a Cyrillic abbreviation. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «МДА» at CAS 4764-17-4 and record UKR-53 accepts that printed row. The list handles this family by printing the individual members rather than by a class clause, and it prints the methylated homologue separately at CAS 42542-10-9, which is why a match here is not a match there and the reverse. It is also why record UKR-12 in this source, on a benzofuran analogue that shares this molecule's side chain, was left unresolved: nobody read whether this heading is written to one compound or to a bounded group.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 4764-17-4 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule specifically. Tablets and powders sold under this name are frequently mixtures of several members of the family, and each member carries its own heading and its own band, so an assay decides the grading. The source reproduces no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 4764-17-4 and there is no authorised Ukrainian medicine built on this molecule, so no prescription route arises. Research or clinical trial supply abroad creates no Ukrainian authorisation. The source establishes no import permit, no allowance and no foreign prescription rule, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry no expectation that a supplier or vendor document assists here. The Ukrainian heading is keyed to CAS 4764-17-4 and the list prints each member of the family separately, so identification of the actual molecule is what an officer will pursue. A traveller carrying a prescribed medicine that has been confused with a tablet of this kind should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the ingredient, strength, dose and treatment period. The heading was read on 20 September 2026.

MDMA

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under a Cyrillic abbreviation of its chemical name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «МДМА» at CAS 42542-10-9 and record UKR-54 accepts that printed row. The registry number fixes the hydrochloride form commonly cited for this compound, and the list prints the demethylated relative separately at CAS 4764-17-4, so the two are reached by two headings and not by one class. This source does not state which of таблиці I to IV the heading occupies, and it records no limb about preparations, so nothing is asserted about tablets of mixed composition beyond the identity of the molecule.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has abolished the death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence anywhere in the article. Because the heading at CAS 42542-10-9 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule. Tablets vary widely in content and often contain more than one listed substance, so the grading rests on an assay rather than on a tablet count, and this source gives neither the figures nor a rule for weighing a preparation. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 42542-10-9. Regulatory approval of this molecule for assisted psychotherapy has been sought in several countries, and this source establishes no Ukrainian authorised product, no import permit and no recognition of a foreign prescription or trial supply. None was researched. A trial participation letter is not a Ukrainian authorisation.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on this row, because it establishes a listed heading rather than any route for carriage. A patient enrolled in a supervised programme abroad should not assume the programme's documents travel with the medicine, and should settle the Ukrainian position in advance. A traveller carrying an unrelated prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the ingredient, strength, dose and treatment period. The heading at CAS 42542-10-9 was read on 20 September 2026.

MDPV

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under a four letter Cyrillic abbreviation. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «МДПВ» at CAS 687603-66-3 and record UKR-55 accepts that printed row. The registry number is what fixes the compound, because the abbreviation alone would not distinguish this pyrrolidinophenone from the several close relatives that circulate under similar names. The Ukrainian approach here is the same as elsewhere in this list: the synthetic cathinones are printed individually, which is also why the open family row in this source, record UKR-83, could not be resolved at class level. Identity belongs to the Перелік under стаття 7 of the controlled substances law.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 687603-66-3 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule. The compound is potent by mass and is usually sold as a powder of unknown purity, so the assayed content rather than the gross weight is what a careful grading rests on, and this source states neither the figures nor the method. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 687603-66-3 and no authorised medicine anywhere is built on this molecule, so there is no prescription route and none should be described. The source establishes no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry no reliance on a product name, because the Ukrainian heading is pinned to CAS 687603-66-3 and near relatives sold under similar names are separate molecules with separate treatment. A traveller carrying a prescribed stimulant that could be confused with a cathinone powder should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose and the treatment period. Keep the quantity within that period. The heading was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

Memantine

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine as a medicine rather than as a scheduled substance. Record UKR-56 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and that no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the regime which applies is Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» with its controls on authorisation, prescription status, labelling, import and customs. The finding is the medicines regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the consolidated list rather than an independent confirmation. The compound is an uncompetitive receptor antagonist used in dementia, which is why it sits in a therapeutic rather than a controlled category here, and this source does not say whether Ukraine dispenses it on prescription only. Qualify the negative half even here. The narcotics check logs "memantine" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, against an annex the source records as printed in Cyrillic, so the search could not have matched a Cyrillic heading. The expected answer and the measured one happen to agree on this row, but only the first of those is actually supported.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach this substance on this record because record UKR-56 accepted no heading for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it for the same reason. Whatever exposure exists runs under the medicines regime, for supply without authorisation or import of an unauthorised product, and this source reproduces none of those provisions or their penalties, so no article and no figure is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine's country rule states no personal use allowance for a scheduled substance, treats наказ МОЗ № 188 as a criminal grading instrument rather than a traveller's allowance, and requires a medicine to satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Of those, only the medicines limb engages here, because record UKR-56 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading. A traveller is therefore carrying a prescription medicine rather than a scheduled substance. What was not established, and not researched, is whether Ukraine treats the product as prescription only, what quantity may be brought for personal use and whether a foreign prescription is recognised at the border. None of that is stated here, and the prescription should be carried regardless.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total quantity, together with the indication. A patient carrying this medicine is often travelling with a companion or carer, so carry the carer's authority to hold the medicine as well. Keep the quantity within the stated period. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026 and record UKR-56 rests on a negative reading of it.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-56: Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» governs this substance as a medicinal product, and the source names no article within that law. Narcotics cross check, Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026, no accepted heading · a receptor antagonist for dementia with no recorded misuse market, which is why the negative reading is the expected one here rather than a flagged one. List ownership, стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори», https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/60/95-%D0%B2%D1%80#Text. Narcotics ceiling not engaged on this record, Кримінальний кодекс України стаття 307, https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14#Text. Limitation: the narcotics cross check logged the substance name in Latin lower case and capitals against a Cyrillic annex, so its negative is unmeasured. · the article 44, 305, 307 and 309 penalties stated above are carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry, which cites the Criminal Code articles 305, 307, 309 and 310, the Code of Administrative Offenses article 44 and Ministry of Health Order No. 188.

Mephedrone (4-MMC)

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under a heading that carries both the common name and a positional abbreviation. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Мефедрон (4-ММС)» at CAS 1189805-46-6 and record UKR-57 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals and the bracketed abbreviation is the list's own. The number in that abbreviation is doing real work. The same list separately prints the third position isomer at CAS 1246911-71-6, so Ukraine distinguishes these cathinones by where the methyl group sits on the ring rather than by a class clause, and a match on one is not a match on the other.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 1189805-46-6 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this isomer specifically. Powders sold under this name frequently assay as the other isomer or as a mixture, and each carries its own heading and band, so an assay rather than a label decides the grading. This source states no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 1189805-46-6 and no authorised medicine anywhere is built on this molecule, so there is no prescription route to describe. The source establishes no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched. Prior legality in another market has no bearing.
Documentation: Carry no reliance on a name, because the Ukrainian heading at CAS 1189805-46-6 is written to one ring isomer and its sibling is printed separately at CAS 1246911-71-6. A traveller carrying a prescribed stimulant that might be mistaken for a cathinone powder should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose and the treatment period, and should keep the quantity to that period. The heading was read on 20 September 2026.

Mescaline

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name as the isolated alkaloid. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Мескалін» at CAS 54-04-6 and record UKR-58 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. The listing is of the molecule. The cactus that produces it was left unresolved in the same source at record UKR-74, where the search found no named plant entry and rejected this very heading as a near comparison, so Ukraine reaches the alkaloid on this reading and the plant question is open. A cell that treated the alkaloid heading as covering cactus material would be answering a question this source did not put.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 54-04-6 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for the alkaloid. Where the material is plant tissue, the band would have to be applied to an assayed alkaloid content, and this source gives neither the figures nor any rule for weighing a plant matrix. No separate possession article is named by the source. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 54-04-6 and no authorised Ukrainian medicine contains this alkaloid, so no prescription route arises. Ceremonial or religious use in another country creates no Ukrainian permission, and no exemption of that kind was established in this source. No import permit or foreign prescription rule was established either, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on the alkaloid heading, and treat plant material as a separate and unresolved question under record UKR-74 rather than as a safe one. If cactus material is carried as an ornamental plant, carry its botanical identification and the horticultural supplier's documentation. A traveller with a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the ingredient, strength, dose and treatment period. The heading at CAS 54-04-6 was read on 20 September 2026.

Methadone

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name, and it is the backbone of the country's opioid agonist treatment. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Метадон» at CAS 76-99-3 and record UKR-59 accepts that printed row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. Both facts belong on the cell together, because a reader who sees only the listing will misjudge how the substance is actually encountered in Ukraine, and a reader who sees only the treatment programme will misjudge what carrying it across a border means. This source does not state which of таблиці I to IV the heading occupies, and the table is what sets the dispensing and record keeping regime.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part carries a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, with no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 76-99-3 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. Take home doses in a treatment programme can amount to a substantial quantity of oral solution, which is precisely where a lawfully dispensed supply meets a grading band, and this source reproduces neither the figures nor any rule about dispensed medicine. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 76-99-3 and the usual carrier is a patient in continuing treatment. Whether a course dispensed abroad may be brought in, and under what permit, was not established in this source and was not researched. Arrange continuity with a Ukrainian programme in advance rather than relying on take home doses at the border.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing containers with the pharmacy or clinic label in the patient's own name, and a letter from the treating programme naming the active ingredient, the formulation, the daily dose, the duration of treatment, the number of doses carried and the prescriber's registration. Carry the clinic's contact details for verification. Keep doses in their labelled containers and declare them on arrival, because наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its bands to the heading at CAS 76-99-3 regardless of the clinical reason.

Methamphetamine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Метамфетамін» at CAS 537-46-2 and record UKR-60 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The registry number identifies the dextrorotatory form rather than the racemate, and this source does not say whether the heading is drafted to reach both enantiomers or whether the list carries a separate entry for the other. That distinction is not academic where a nasal decongestant or a prescription product in another country contains the less active enantiomer. The demethylated parent is printed separately in the same list at CAS 300-62-9.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine abolished the death penalty and no drug provision restores it. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 537-46-2 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. Crystalline material is often close to pure, so the gross weight and the assayed content converge and the band is reached at a small mass. This source reproduces no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 537-46-2. A prescription product containing this substance exists in a small number of health systems for attention disorders and for obesity, and this source establishes no Ukrainian authorisation, no import permit and no recognition of such a prescription. None was researched. Do not assume a foreign prescription creates a route.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient and the enantiomer, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total quantity. Name the enantiomer explicitly, because the Ukrainian match is pinned to CAS 537-46-2 and this source does not say what else the heading reaches. Settle the Ukrainian route before travelling rather than at the border. The heading was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

Methaqualone (Quaaludes)

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Метаквалон» at CAS 72-44-6 and record UKR-61 accepts that printed row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. This is a substance that has been withdrawn from medical use in essentially every health system, so the listing is the whole of its legal position and there is no live prescribing practice sitting alongside it. What that means for a reader is that any material encountered under this name is either old pharmaceutical stock or an illicit preparation, and the source records no exempted preparation limb and no table assignment for the heading.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 72-44-6 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. Tablets circulating under this name are frequently counterfeit and contain something else entirely, often a benzodiazepine that carries its own listed heading, so the grading rests on an assay of the actual content. This source states no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 72-44-6 and there is no current authorised medicinal product containing this substance, so no prescription route exists to be relied on. The source establishes no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on this row, since no lawful carriage arises from it. If historic pharmaceutical stock is being moved for disposal or for laboratory reference, carry the institutional authority for holding it and the inventory record rather than a personal document. A traveller carrying a prescribed sedative that might be confused with a tablet sold under this name should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter. The heading was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

Methaqualone (Quaaludes) in Ukraine, full detail →

Methylone

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under a heading that gives the common name and the beta keto formula together. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Метилон (bk-MDMA)» at CAS 186028-79-5 and record UKR-62 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals and the bracketed form is the list's own. The bracketed abbreviation is useful because it states the structural relationship to a substance printed separately in the same list at CAS 42542-10-9, while the two remain distinct headings with distinct registry numbers. Ukraine has again scheduled a cathinone individually rather than by a family clause.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 186028-79-5 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule. Material sold as one cathinone regularly assays as another, and each carries its own heading and band in this list, so the assay rather than the sale name settles the grading. The source states no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 186028-79-5 and no medicinal product is built on this molecule anywhere, so no prescription route exists and none should be described. The source establishes no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry no reliance on a bracketed structural abbreviation, because although the Ukrainian heading names the relationship to another listed substance, the two are separate headings at CAS 186028-79-5 and CAS 42542-10-9 and an officer matches the molecule. A traveller carrying a prescribed medicine that might be confused with a cathinone should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the dose and the treatment period.

Methylphenidate

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name, and it is a first line prescription medicine at the same time. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Метилфенідат» at CAS 113-45-1 and record UKR-63 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case because the list prints in capitals. The registry number fixes the racemate, and this source does not say whether the single enantiomer product marketed in some countries is reached by the same heading. Nor does it state the table, which for a medicine prescribed to children on long term repeat is exactly what determines the dispensing rules and the quantity a pharmacy may supply at once.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty, and Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, the trade article named by this source, carries a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part with no life sentence provided. That is a trafficking ceiling and not the position of a patient with a prescription. Because the heading at CAS 113-45-1 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its small, large and especially large bands to this molecule. A three month school term supply is a large number of tablets, which is where the band and the prescription collide. No figures are reproduced and no separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity in the narcotics sense, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 113-45-1 and the typical traveller is a child or student on continuing treatment, often accompanied by a parent holding the medicine. No import permit, no personal quantity allowance and no rule recognising a foreign prescription was established in this source, and none was researched. The prescription is necessary here and cannot be called sufficient.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the formulation including whether it is modified release, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period, the diagnosis and the total number of tablets. Where a parent or carer holds the medicine for a child, carry written authority to do so and proof of the relationship. Keep the quantity to the stated period and declare it on arrival.

Mitragynine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as a narcotic drug whose circulation is restricted. The list prints «Мітрагінін (Mitragynine)» with the chemical name «метил (E)-2-[(2S,3S,12bS)-3-етил-8-метокси-1,2,3,4,6,7,12,12b-октагідроіндоло[2,3-a]хінолізин-2-іл]-3-метоксипроп-2-еноат» in Таблиця II, Список № 1, headed «Наркотичні засоби та рослини, обіг яких обмежено», directly beneath the entry for the leaf of Mitragyna speciosa and above the separate row for its hydroxylated metabolite. So the alkaloid, the leaf that carries it and the metabolite are each named, and none of them depends on the note about plants. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця II, Список № 1, a restricted rather than prohibited list, so article 307 starts at part 1 and the especially dangerous limb does not apply. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 with no confiscation, six to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group, a large size or sale in a place of mass gathering, and nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group or a large size, and ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group or an especially large size. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Public use, or use by a group in a place of mass gathering, is criminal under article 316 for «наркотичних засобів», restriction of liberty of up to four years or imprisonment of up to three years; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1, for narcotic drugs, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20240814180400/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/z0512-00/print on 3 October 2026 in the redaction of 1 March 2022 with a currency line of 14 August 2024, has no row for mitragynine, so no gram figure is stated here; that reading is old and does not rule out a later row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: Restricted, not prohibited: the list heading reads «обіг яких обмежено», which leaves room for licensed circulation, but this run read no licensing or medicines law and found no Ukrainian authorised product made from this leaf or its alkaloids, so a traveller has no established route. Sale as a herbal product or supplement in another country gives no Ukrainian cover.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця II, Список № 1, the alkaloid row. Searched this run against the full list: «Мітрагінін» matched the named row and, inside a longer word, the metabolite row; «Mitragynine» matched the named row and the metabolite's Latin gloss; «корінантеїдин» in the chemical name column matched the named row only. The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written. A traveller should carry nothing in reliance on this row, and anyone carrying a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, strength and dose.

Modafinil

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine as a medicine rather than as a scheduled substance, on this reading. Record UKR-65 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and that no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the regime which applies is Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» with its controls on authorisation, prescription status, labelling, import and customs. The finding is the medicines regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the list rather than an independent confirmation, and this is a wakefulness promoting agent that several countries have brought under control, so it is a row to verify against the current list rather than to lean on. The reason to verify is sharper than staleness. The narcotics check logs "modafinil" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, run against an annex recorded as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have matched a Cyrillic heading at all. The negative is unmeasured, and for a substance several countries have scheduled that is the point at which a reader should stop relying on it.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach this substance on this record because record UKR-65 accepted no heading for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it for the same reason. The exposure that exists is under the medicines regime, for supply without authorisation, sale outside a pharmacy or import of an unauthorised product, and this source reproduces none of those provisions or penalties, so no article and no figure is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule is that no personal use allowance exists for a scheduled substance, that наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing a traveller, and that a medicine must also satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Only the medicines limb engages on this row, because record UKR-65 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading. A traveller is therefore carrying a prescription medicine. Whether Ukraine treats it as prescription only, what personal import quantity is permitted and whether a foreign prescription is recognised were not established and were not researched. Note also that this substance is bought online without prescription in large volumes, and an online purchase is not a prescription in any system.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period, the sleep disorder diagnosis and the total quantity. Do not carry blister strips stripped of their labelling or a bulk quantity bought online, because quantity without a prescription is what turns a medicines question into a supply question. Recheck the current consolidated Перелік before travelling, since record UKR-65 rests on a negative reading of the list taken on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-65: Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» governs this substance as a medicinal product, and the source names no article within that law. Narcotics cross check, Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026, no accepted heading · a wakefulness promoting agent bought online in volume without prescription, which is the route by which a quantity question arises rather than a scheduling one.

Narcotics ceiling not engaged on this record, Кримінальний кодекс України стаття 307, https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14#Text. Limitation: the narcotics cross check logged the substance name in Latin lower case and capitals against a Cyrillic annex, so its negative is unmeasured. · the article 44, 305, 307 and 309 penalties stated above are carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry, which cites the Criminal Code articles 305, 307, 309 and 310, the Code of Administrative Offenses article 44 and Ministry of Health Order No. 188. They were not re-derived from the Code in this pass, and the published entry's own hedges, that the thresholds are very low and that trace amounts have triggered article 309, are carried with them · Updated September 21, 2026

Morphine

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name, and it is the reference opioid analgesic of Ukrainian practice. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Морфін» at CAS 57-27-2 and record UKR-66 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The diacetyl ester is printed separately at CAS 561-27-3, and the plant material that yields the alkaloid is printed separately again at CAS 8008-60-4, so Ukraine reaches the alkaloid, its ester and the raw material through three distinct headings. This source does not state which of таблиці I to IV any of them occupies, and for a palliative care medicine the table is what sets the prescribing rules.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine abolished the death penalty and no drug provision restores it. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence anywhere in it. Because the heading at CAS 57-27-2 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. A palliative patient may hold a quantity that reaches a band, which is the reason the dispensing documentation matters more on this row than on almost any other. The source reproduces no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 57-27-2 and the usual carrier is a cancer or palliative patient. What this source does not establish is the traveller mechanism: no import permit, no personal allowance and no rule recognising a foreign prescription was found, and none was researched. Settle the route with the Ukrainian authorities before travelling, because an interruption in supply is a clinical emergency.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the formulation including whether it is modified release, the strength, the daily dose, any breakthrough dose, the treatment period, the diagnosis and the total quantity carried. Carry the prescriber's contact details and the hospital or hospice letterhead. Keep the medicine in its labelled containers, declare it on arrival, and obtain any Ukrainian authorisation in advance. The heading at CAS 57-27-2 was read on 20 September 2026.

MXE

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as an especially dangerous psychotropic substance whose circulation is prohibited. The list prints «Метоксетамін (MXE, 3-Meo-2-Oxo-PCE)» with the chemical name «2-(3-метоксифеніл)-2-(етиламіно)циклогексанон» in Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено». Ketamine, its parent, sits elsewhere, as «Кетамін» in Таблиця II, Список № 2, a restricted rather than prohibited list, so this analogue is treated more severely than its parent. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця I, Список № 2, so the especially dangerous limb of articles 305 and 307 applies with no quantity condition, which ketamine's own row does not attract. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 for a restricted substance, but part 2 reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби або психотропні речовини» without any quantity, so any sale of this row's substance carries six to ten years with confiscation of property, rising to nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, and eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2, which reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби чи психотропні речовини» with no quantity condition, so this row starts at part 2; an organised group or an especially large size gives ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: None. The heading of the list that carries this row says circulation is prohibited, «обіг яких заборонено», so no prescription, licence or foreign prescription can make carriage lawful in Ukraine. This run read no medicines or licensing law, and a prohibited heading leaves nothing for such law to authorise.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця I, Список № 2, named row, compared with the ketamine row of Таблиця II, Список № 2. Searched this run against the full list: «MXE» and «Метоксетамін» matched this row only; «етиламіно)циклогексанон» in the chemical name column matched this row and the ketamine chemical name, which contains the same string inside «метиламіно». The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written. A traveller should carry nothing in reliance on this row, and anyone carrying a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, strength and dose.

Nicotine

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine by the tobacco and nicotine product regime rather than by the narcotics list. Record UKR-68 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the controls which apply are Ukraine's tobacco and nicotine product rules on manufacture, labelling, health warnings, advertising, sale to minors and excise, extended in recent years to electronic delivery systems and nicotine pouches. The finding is that regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the list, not an independent confirmation, and the source names no individual instrument within the tobacco regime. The negative half is unmeasured. The narcotics check logs "nicotine" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, against an annex this source records as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have matched a Cyrillic heading. The tobacco and nicotine product regime is the finding and it does not rest on that search.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach nicotine on this record because no heading was accepted for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it either. The exposure that does exist is regulatory and fiscal: unmarked or undeclared product, sale to minors, advertising breaches and excise evasion, enforced administratively and at customs rather than as a drug offence. This source reproduces none of those provisions, their penalties or their quantity limits, so none is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule for scheduled substances is no personal use allowance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 rather than a traveller's allowance, and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a scheduled medicine. None of its three parts engages on this row, because record UKR-68 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading. Nicotine replacement products are handled as medicines or as consumer products depending on their presentation, and this source states neither route. The personal import allowance for cigarettes, heated products, liquids and pouches is a customs and excise question that was not established here and was not researched, so no quantity is stated. Do not read a narcotics negative as a customs permission.
Documentation: Carry tobacco and nicotine products within the customs allowance, in their retail packaging, with the duty marking intact and the receipts available, because on this record the Ukrainian controls are excise, labelling and customs controls. Carry the ingredient declaration for liquids and pouches, since nicotine strength is what the product rules turn on. A nicotine replacement medicine should travel in its original pack with the pharmacy label where it was dispensed. Confirm the current customs allowance before travelling. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-68: the Ukrainian tobacco and nicotine product legislation governs this substance, and the source names no individual instrument within it. Narcotics cross check, Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026, no accepted heading.

Nimetazepam

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own printed heading. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Німетазепам» at CAS 2011-67-8 and record UKR-69 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. It is the sixth of the diazepine group members that the Ukrainian list names individually, and its presence is the strongest single answer to the class question raised elsewhere in this source: a list that prints six members by name is not silent on the class merely because it does not print the class label. This compound has no current authorised medical use in most health systems and is encountered largely as diverted or counterfeit tablets.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 2011-67-8 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule individually rather than for the class. Tablets sold under this name are commonly counterfeit and may contain another listed diazepine, each of which carries its own heading and band, so the assay settles the grading. No figures are reproduced and no separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity in the narcotics sense, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 2011-67-8 and there is no widely authorised medicinal product containing this compound, so a prescription route is unlikely to arise and none is established here. No import permit, personal allowance or recognition of a foreign prescription was found, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry the prescription and the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name if the product was genuinely prescribed in a country where it remains licensed, with a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the dose, the treatment period and the total quantity. Name the molecule rather than the class, because Ukraine prints this member individually at CAS 2011-67-8. Unlabelled tablets should not be carried at all. The heading was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

Nitrous Oxide

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine by use category rather than by the narcotics list, and the source contradicts itself about that. Record UKR-70 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the applicable controls are the medicines, food additive and product safety rules according to the intended use of the gas. Record UKR-19 of the same source, on the alkyl nitrites, names this substance as a printed near entry in that same list. One record says it is not in the list, the other treats it as printed. The source does not settle it, and this cell states both rather than choosing. The conflict has a likely cause. The narcotics check for this row logs "dušikov oksid" and the formula, the first plainly a South Slavic transliteration and both Latin, run against an annex recorded as printed in Cyrillic. A search of that kind could not have matched a Cyrillic heading, which is exactly how this row could record an absence while another row of the same source names the substance as printed. The absence half is unmeasured.Not listed in Ukraine's narcotics annex, and the contradiction the applied cell left open is now settled against the entry. The перелік approved by Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, in the redaction of 13 September 2025, was searched in its own Cyrillic script for азоту закис, закис азоту, оксид азоту, динітроген, азот and the registry number, and no row of any of the four tables answers to any of them. The applied cell set a record saying the gas is outside the list against another record saying the alkyl nitrite row names it as a printed near entry. That second record cannot be right, because this annex prints no alkyl nitrite either: амілнітрит, ізобутилнітрит and every related form return nothing across all four tables. So the absence stands and the near entry claim falls. What reaches the gas instead is medicines, food additive and product safety legislation according to intended use, and this source names no individual instrument inside that regime. Read on 21 September 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach this gas on record UKR-70 because no heading was accepted for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it on that record. But record UKR-19 of the same source asserts a printed entry, and if that is the correct reading a heading and a band exist, so the grading is as unresolved as the status. The exposure under the medicines, food additive and product safety regimes is not reproduced by this source and no article or figure from it is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure. because no row of Постанова № 770 answers to it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its bands to printed rows and so supplies none here. The applied cell treated the grading as unresolved because another row of the same dossier claimed a printed entry, and that claim has now been tested against the annex and fails, so the grading is not unresolved: the narcotics scale simply does not engage. The exposure under the medicines, food additive and product safety regimes is not reproduced by this source and no article or figure from it is stated here.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian rule for scheduled substances is no personal use allowance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 rather than a traveller's allowance, and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a scheduled medicine. It engages on this row only if record UKR-19 is right and record UKR-70 is wrong, which the source does not determine. Taken as a medicine, the gas is an authorised anaesthetic and analgesic handled under Закон України «Про лікарські засоби»; taken as a food additive it is a propellant; taken as a consumer canister it is a product safety question. This source establishes no traveller rule for any of the three, no import permit and no allowance, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry documentation matched to the use, because that is what record UKR-70 says the regime follows. Medical gas should travel with the clinical authorisation, the cylinder's certification and the prescriber's or provider's letter. Catering cartridges should travel in their retail packaging with the food grade declaration and the quantity plainly consistent with catering use. Do not carry large quantities of unlabelled canisters. Note that the source contradicts itself about whether this substance is in the narcotics list at all, so the safer assumption is that it may be. The list was read on 20 September 2026.the separate regime follows. Medical gas should travel with the clinical authorisation, the cylinder's certification and the prescriber's or provider's letter.

Opium

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine as the raw plant exudate, under its own heading. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Опій» at CAS 8008-60-4 and record UKR-71 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The registry number identifies the natural mixture rather than any single alkaloid, which is what distinguishes this heading from the two alkaloid headings printed separately in the same list at CAS 57-27-2 and CAS 561-27-3. So Ukraine reaches the raw material and the isolated compounds through different entries, and material that is neither pure alkaloid nor raw exudate has to be identified before a heading can be chosen.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has abolished the death penalty and no drug article restores it. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence provided. Because the heading at CAS 8008-60-4 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for the raw material. Poppy straw, pods and home prepared liquids sit awkwardly between the headings, and this source neither reproduces the bands nor states how such material is classified, so nothing of that kind is asserted. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 8008-60-4. Preparations of opium tincture remain in use in a few health systems for infant withdrawal and for severe diarrhoea, and this source establishes no Ukrainian authorised product, no import permit and no recognition of a foreign prescription. None was researched.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on a culinary or horticultural description of poppy material, because the Ukrainian heading at CAS 8008-60-4 is written to the exudate and the alkaloids are printed separately. Where a tincture or a similar preparation has genuinely been prescribed, carry the prescription, the original dispensing bottle with the pharmacy label in the patient's name and a prescriber's letter naming the preparation, the strength, the dose, the indication and the total volume. The heading was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

Oxycodone

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Оксикодон» at CAS 76-42-6 and record UKR-72 accepts that printed row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The heading names the semisynthetic alkaloid itself, and the source records no separate entry or limb for the modified release formulations or for the combination products that carry it, so on this reading a preparation is reached through the same heading as the pure substance. The table the heading occupies is not stated by this source, and for an opioid analgesic the table is what determines the prescribing and dispensing controls.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence anywhere in it. Because the heading at CAS 76-42-6 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands. A modified release tablet holds a large dose in a single unit, so the quantity of active substance a patient carries is much higher than the tablet count suggests, and that is the practical hazard on this row. The source states no figures and names no separate possession article. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 76-42-6 and the usual traveller is a post surgical or chronic pain patient. This source establishes no Ukrainian import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched. A prescription from the country of dispensing does not answer the Ukrainian question on this record.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the formulation including whether it is modified release, the strength per unit, the daily dose, the treatment period, the indication and the total quantity of active substance carried. State the total in milligrams, not only in tablets, because the Ukrainian bands under наказ МОЗ № 188 attach to the substance at CAS 76-42-6. Keep to the stated period and declare on arrival. Read on 20 September 2026.

PCP

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine under its full chemical name rather than the three letter abbreviation. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Фенциклідин» at CAS 77-10-1 and record UKR-73 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The heading names the parent arylcyclohexylamine. This source records no analogue limb and no entries for the several analogues of this compound that circulate, and the two arylcyclohexylamine rows it left unresolved, records UKR-02 and UKR-67, were deferred against a different heading entirely, so nothing is asserted here about any analogue of this molecule.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 77-10-1 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule. Material is commonly encountered as a liquid applied to plant matter rather than as a powder, so the band would be applied to an assayed content rather than to the weight of the carrier, and this source states neither the figures nor the method. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 77-10-1. The compound was withdrawn from human and veterinary medicine decades ago, so there is no prescription route anywhere and none should be described. The source establishes no import permit, no personal allowance and no recognition of a foreign prescription, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on this row, since no lawful carriage arises from it. Where a laboratory holds reference material, the institutional licence and the inventory record are the relevant documents rather than anything personal. A traveller carrying a prescribed medicine that has been confused with treated plant material should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the ingredient, strength, dose and treatment period. The heading at CAS 77-10-1 was read on 20 September 2026.

Peyote

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine through mescaline and the list's plant note, not by a named plant entry. The list prints «Мескалін» with the chemical name «3,4,5-триметоксифенетиламін» in Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено», and the note to that list says it also includes «рослини або їх частини, що містять будь-який засіб, включений до цього списку, і підлягають тим же заходам контролю, що і засіб;». The cactus is not named anywhere in the list, but it contains mescaline, so the note puts the plant, buttons and any preparation of it under the same prohibited heading as mescaline. The same list prints the ethoxy analogue «Ескалін (4-ethoxy mescaline)» as a separate row, which is not this plant's alkaloid. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця I, Список № 2 through mescaline, so the especially dangerous limb of articles 305 and 307 applies to the cactus with no quantity condition. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 for a restricted substance, but part 2 reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби або психотропні речовини» without any quantity, so any sale of this row's substance carries six to ten years with confiscation of property, rising to nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, and eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2, which reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби чи психотропні речовини» with no quantity condition, so this row starts at part 2; an organised group or an especially large size gives ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: None. The heading of the list that carries this row says circulation is prohibited, «обіг яких заборонено», so no prescription, licence or foreign prescription can make carriage lawful in Ukraine. This run read no medicines or licensing law, and a prohibited heading leaves nothing for such law to authorise.
Documentation: VERIFIED against the instrument. Instrument: Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, перелік наркотичних засобів, психотропних речовин і прекурсорів. Sections: Таблиця I, Список № 2, the mescaline row and the note to that list. Searched this run against the full list in Ukrainian and Latin: «пейот», «peyote», «Lophophora» and «кактус» found no entry; «Мескалін» found the named row and the escaline row, which was read and set aside. The penalty statements were written from articles 51, 305, 307, 309, 310 and 316 of Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, all read in full in this run before the capital statement was written. A traveller should carry nothing in reliance on this row, and anyone carrying a prescribed medicine should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, strength and dose.

Pink Cocaine / Tusi

Legal status: Not applicable as a single status, and Ukraine's own reason is recorded rather than borrowed. Applicability record UKR-76 stopped at applicability because the label does not identify one molecule: the search of Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was run under the street name, the local trade name and one of the compounds the powder is supposed to contain, and the record states that no single molecule entry can be assigned because the slug denotes a variable product. The result must follow each identified constituent. In this Ukrainian list those constituents are printed separately, at CAS 6740-88-1, CAS 42542-10-9, CAS 50-36-2 and CAS 66142-81-2 among others, so the powder has as many statuses as it has ingredients. The applicability conclusion stands on its own reason, which is that a label is not a molecule, and that reason does not depend on any search. The search itself does. The terms logged are "pink cocaine", "tusi" and the abbreviation of one supposed constituent, all Latin, run against an annex this source records as printed in Cyrillic, so nothing about it could have matched. Read the applicability finding as sound and the accompanying search as unmeasured.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, with a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part and no life sentence in the article, and наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its small, large and especially large bands to individual headings. Because record UKR-76 assigns no single heading, there is no band for the product as a product, and the grading is built from whichever listed constituents the assay reports. A sample containing two listed substances engages two headings. That is the practical shape of the exposure and no single figure describes it. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. Whether the offence reaches this row at all is exactly what was not established, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this row's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity of a listed substance, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Attached to this row there is no single placement at all under record UKR-76, and no medicinal product is sold under this street label, so no prescription question arises. The country rule reaches the constituents rather than the powder. No import permit, allowance or foreign prescription rule was established here, and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on this row, because it is a statement that the label does not identify a substance rather than a statement about any substance. The only document that would mean anything is a laboratory report of what a given sample contains, and that report would then be read against the individual Ukrainian headings. A traveller carrying a prescribed medicine that has been mistaken for a coloured powder should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter. Read on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, applicability record UKR-76: the street label denotes a variable product and no single molecule entry can be assigned · searched under the street name, the local trade name and a named constituent in Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026.

Poppers

Legal status: Not applicable as a class status, and the reason given is Ukraine's own. Applicability record UKR-77 stopped at applicability because the label covers several different alkyl nitrites rather than one molecule: the search of Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was run under the common name and under two nitrite descriptions, and the record states that no single molecule entry can be assigned to an open family. The individual member that this table does carry was itself left unresolved at record UKR-19, so the family cannot be settled from a member either. A class is a finding when the list names members, and this reading produced no member, which is not the same thing as the list naming none. Separate the two halves of this row. That a label covering several molecules cannot take one status is a conclusion about the label and it holds. The search behind it does not: the logged terms are "poppers", "amil nitrit" and "alkil nitriti", all Latin and the last two South Slavic transliterations, run against an annex recorded as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have found a member heading even if one is printed.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty. The narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, and the bands in наказ МОЗ № 188 both require an individual listed heading, and record UKR-77 assigns none to the label while record UKR-19 assigns none to the member it examined. So no narcotics band attaches on this reading. Whatever exposure exists sits in the product safety, consumer and medicines law that this source did not read for this row, and none of its articles, penalties or thresholds is reproduced here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. Whether the offence reaches this row at all is exactly what was not established, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this row's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian scheduled substance rule of no personal use allowance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» is stated by the source at country level, and on this row there is no single placement for it to attach to under record UKR-77. One member of the family has a historical medical use, and nothing in this source establishes a Ukrainian authorised product, an import permit, an allowance or the recognition of a foreign prescription for it. None was researched. Treat the whole traveller question as unestablished.
Documentation: Carry the product in its retail packaging with the ingredient declaration and the stated purpose printed on it, because with no narcotics heading assigned the regime that applies is likely to be a product regime that turns on labelling and intended use. Be able to name the specific nitrite, since record UKR-77 is a statement about a label covering several molecules. If a nitrite has genuinely been prescribed, carry the prescription, the dispensing pack and the prescriber's letter. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, applicability record UKR-77: the label denotes an open family of alkyl nitrites and no single molecule entry can be assigned · searched under the common name and two nitrite descriptions in Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026.

Pregabalin

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine as a medicine rather than as a scheduled substance, on this reading, and the reading should be checked before it is relied on. Record UKR-78 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the regime which applies is Закон України «Про лікарські засоби». The finding is the medicines regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the consolidated list rather than an independent confirmation, and this gabapentinoid has been brought under national control in a number of countries because of diversion and misuse, which makes a stale negative the likeliest way this cell could be wrong. The flag is now a measurement flag rather than a currency flag. The narcotics check logs "pregabalin" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, against an annex this source records as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have matched a Cyrillic heading. For a gabapentinoid that neighbouring systems have scheduled, an unmeasured negative is not a basis for travel planning.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach this substance on this record because record UKR-78 accepted no heading. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it for the same reason. If the current list does carry a heading for it, both the ceiling and a band would attach and this record would be wrong rather than merely incomplete. The exposure under the medicines regime, for unauthorised supply or import, is not reproduced by this source, so no article and no figure is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule is no personal use allowance for a scheduled substance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 rather than a traveller's allowance, and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a medicine. It engages on this row only through that third limb, because record UKR-78 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading, so the traveller is carrying a prescription medicine. Whether Ukraine treats it as prescription only, what personal import quantity is allowed and whether a foreign prescription is recognised were not established and were not researched. Given that this substance is controlled in several neighbouring legal systems, a patient should assume the stricter position and check the current Ukrainian list rather than rely on this negative.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period, the indication and the total quantity, since this medicine is prescribed for neuropathic pain, for epilepsy and for anxiety and the indication is often asked about. Keep the quantity within the stated period. Recheck the current consolidated Перелік for this substance before travelling; the reading behind record UKR-78 was taken on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-78: Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» governs this substance as a medicinal product, and the source names no article within that law. Narcotics cross check, Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026, no accepted heading, a negative record rather than a confirmation and flagged here as the most likely to be stale.

Psilocybin

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Псилоцибін» at CAS 520-52-5 and record UKR-79 accepts that row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. The registry number fixes the phosphate ester rather than the free phenol, and this source does not state whether the free phenol has a heading of its own, which matters because fungal material converts one to the other. Three other rows of this source lean on this heading and none is settled by it: records UKR-09 and UKR-10, on substituted tryptamines, and record UKR-17, where the heading was compared against a fungus that does not contain this molecule at all.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article. Because the heading at CAS 520-52-5 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this compound. Fungal material contains it at a low and variable percentage, so a band applied to dried mushroom weight and a band applied to assayed content give very different answers, and this source states neither the figures nor which method is used. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 520-52-5. Supervised clinical use is under trial in several countries and this source establishes no Ukrainian authorised product, no import permit, no trial supply route and no recognition of a foreign prescription. None was researched. A trial participation document is not a Ukrainian authorisation.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on this row. Where material is held under a research or clinical trial authorisation, the institutional licence, the import authorisation and the study documentation are the relevant papers and they must be Ukrainian rather than foreign. A traveller carrying a prescribed medicine that has been confused with fungal material should carry the original dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name, the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the ingredient, strength, dose and treatment period. The heading was read on 20 September 2026.

Quetiapine

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine as a medicine rather than as a scheduled substance. Record UKR-80 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the regime which applies is Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» with its controls on authorisation, prescription status, labelling, import and customs. The finding is the medicines regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the list rather than an independent confirmation. This is an atypical antipsychotic with no recognised recreational market of its own, which is why it sits in the therapeutic rather than the controlled category here. Qualify the negative half. The narcotics check logs "quetiapine" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, against an annex recorded as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have matched a Cyrillic heading. The therapeutic profile makes the negative the expected answer, but the search as logged did not establish it.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach this substance on this record because record UKR-80 accepted no heading for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it for the same reason. The exposure that exists is under the medicines regime, for supply without authorisation, sale outside a pharmacy or import of an unauthorised product, and this source reproduces none of those provisions or their penalties, so no article and no figure is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule states no personal use allowance for a scheduled substance, uses наказ МОЗ № 188 to grade criminal conduct rather than to licence carriage, and requires a medicine to satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Only the last of the three engages here, because record UKR-80 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading, so a traveller is carrying a prescription medicine rather than a scheduled substance. Whether Ukraine treats it as prescription only, what personal import quantity is permitted and whether a foreign prescription is recognised were not established in this source and were not researched. Carry the prescription in any event, because a prescription only medicine crossing a border is a customs question everywhere.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the formulation including whether it is modified release, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total quantity. For a psychiatric medicine carry the prescriber's contact details, because continuity of supply matters and an interruption is a clinical risk. Keep the quantity within the stated period. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026 and record UKR-80 rests on a negative reading of it.

Salvia divinorum

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine through its active principle and the list's plant note, not by a named plant entry. The list prints «Сальвінорин A» with the chemical name «метил(2S,4aR,6aR,7R,9S,10aS,10bR)-9-(ацетилокси)-2-(фуран-3-іл)-6a,10b-диметил-4,10-діоксододека-гідро-2H-нафто[2,1-c]піран-7-карбоксилат» in Таблиця I, Список № 2, headed «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено», and the note to that list says it also includes «рослини або їх частини, що містять будь-який засіб, включений до цього списку, і підлягають тим же заходам контролю, що і засіб;». The plant is not named anywhere in the list. Its leaves carry salvinorin A, so the note puts the leaf, and any extract of it, under the same prohibited heading as the molecule. An earlier reading recorded no match for this row; that search was run on the botanical name and did not look for the active principle. The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця I, Список № 2 through its active principle, so the especially dangerous limb of articles 305 and 307 applies to the leaf with no quantity condition. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 for a restricted substance, but part 2 reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби або психотропні речовини» without any quantity, so any sale of this row's substance carries six to ten years with confiscation of property, rising to nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, and eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2, which reaches «особливо небезпечні наркотичні засоби чи психотропні речовини» with no quantity condition, so this row starts at part 2; an organised group or an especially large size gives ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: None. The heading of the list that carries this row says circulation is prohibited, «обіг яких заборонено», so no prescription, licence or foreign prescription can make carriage lawful in Ukraine. This run read no medicines or licensing law, and a prohibited heading leaves nothing for such law to authorise.

Scopolamine (Devil's Breath)

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine as a medicine rather than as a scheduled substance. Record UKR-82 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and that no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the regime which applies is Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» with its controls on authorisation, prescription status, labelling, import and customs. The finding is the medicines regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the list rather than an independent confirmation. This tropane alkaloid occurs naturally in several plants and is used clinically for motion sickness and in palliative care, and the source does not distinguish plant material from the pharmaceutical. The negative half is unmeasured. The narcotics check logs "scopolamine" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, against an annex this source records as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have reached a Cyrillic heading. That matters more here than on most rows, because this is a tropane alkaloid of the same family as substances the list does print.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach this substance on this record because record UKR-82 accepted no heading for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it for the same reason. The exposure that exists sits in the medicines regime, and conduct involving this alkaloid to incapacitate a person would in any event be prosecuted under the ordinary offences against the person rather than as a drug offence. This source reproduces none of those provisions, so no article and no figure is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule has three limbs: no personal use allowance for a scheduled substance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 rather than a traveller's allowance, and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a medicine. Only the medicines limb engages here, because record UKR-82 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading, so the traveller is carrying a prescription or pharmacy medicine. Whether Ukraine treats the transdermal patch or the oral form as prescription only, what personal import quantity is permitted and whether a foreign prescription is recognised were not established and were not researched. Carry the prescription and the pack regardless, since the product form is what a customs officer reads first.
Documentation: Carry the original pack, whether that is a patch, an injection or tablets, with the ingredient declaration and the pharmacy label in the patient's own name where it was dispensed, plus the prescription and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the form, the strength, the dose, the indication and the total quantity. Carry used patches for disposal rather than discarding them loose. Keep the quantity consistent with the trip. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026 and record UKR-82 rests on a negative reading of it.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-82: Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» governs this alkaloid as a medicinal product, and the source names no article within that law and does not address plant material containing it. Narcotics cross check, Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року, Перелік, таблиці I to IV, read at https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF#Text as at 20 September 2026, no accepted heading. List ownership, стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори», https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/60/95-%D0%B2%D1%80#Text. Narcotics ceiling not engaged on this record, Кримінальний кодекс України стаття 307, https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14#Text. Limitation: the narcotics cross check logged the substance name in Latin lower case and capitals against a Cyrillic annex, so its negative is unmeasured · the alkaloid family is one the list does reach elsewhere. · the article 44, 305, 307 and 309 penalties stated above are carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry, which cites the Criminal Code articles 305, 307, 309 and 310, the Code of Administrative Offenses article 44 and Ministry of Health Order No. 188. They were not re-derived from the Code in this pass, and the published entry's own hedges, that the thresholds are very low and that trace amounts have triggered article 309, are carried with them · Updated September 21, 2026

Scopolamine (Devil's Breath) in Ukraine, full detail →

Synthetic Cannabinoids (K2 / Spice)

Legal status: Not applicable as a class status, and the reason given is Ukraine's own. Applicability record UKR-83 stopped at applicability because the label is an open structural family rather than a molecule: the search of Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was run under the family name and under one named indole compound, and the record states that an identified molecule is required before a national list entry can be matched. That is how this list works throughout. Ukraine prints its synthetic cathinones and its substituted phenethylamines one by one, and on this reading it offers no bounded class clause to settle a family question at family level. Separate the two halves. That an open structural family needs an identified molecule before a list entry can be matched is a conclusion about the label and it holds. The search does not: the terms logged are "sintetski kanabinoidi", a South Slavic transliteration, and one named indole compound, both Latin, run against an annex this source records as printed in Cyrillic, so the statement that the list offers no bounded class clause is unmeasured.Reached at family level in Ukraine for part of this family by a printed structural clause, which reverses the applied cell without reaching the whole family. The перелік approved by Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770, in the redaction of 13 September 2025, closes Таблиця I, Список № 2, «Особливо небезпечні психотропні речовини, обіг яких заборонено», with a Примітка that extends the list to «похідні групи нафтоїліндолів, бензоїліндолів, N-бензоїліндолів, фенілацетиліндолів, нафтилметиліндолів, нафтилметилінденів, циклогексилфенолів, фенілциклогексанолів, нафтоїлпіролів, дибензопіранів, триптамінів», where such derivatives can exist and are not already printed as entries of their own. Read the group names carefully, because they decide how far the clause goes. They cover the indole based chemotypes, the cyclohexylphenols and phenylcyclohexanols, the naphthoylpyrroles and the dibenzopyrans, and not one of them names an indazole. The indazole carboxamides, which are the generation most often encountered now, are therefore reached only where they are printed by name, and the list does print them by name: ADB-BUTINACA and MDMB-BUTINACA stand as individual entries in the body of this same Список № 2 a few lines above the Примітка. So the correction here is a narrowing of the applied cell rather than a simple reversal of it. The applied cell stated that this list offers no bounded class clause and prints its families one by one, and that is false on the face of the Примітка. The applied cell also reported that a search under one named indole compound found nothing. It is printed: «JWH-018» stands in the body of the same Список № 2 against the chemical name «(нафталін-1-іл)(1-пентил-1H-індол-3-іл)метанон», between JWH-081 and JWH-175, in a run of individually named compounds of this family. What survives of the applied cell is narrow and it is real: an assay still has to name the molecule, both because the clause reaches a derivative only where that derivative exists and because an indazole carboxamide is outside the clause altogether and has to be found by name. Read on 21 September 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, twelve years of imprisonment at the ceiling of its third part, no life sentence in the article, and наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its small, large and especially large bands to individual headings. Because record UKR-83 assigns no heading to the family, no band attaches to the label and the grading has to be built from whichever identified compound an assay reports. Herbal material sprayed with one of these compounds is weighed as a preparation, and this source states no rule for that either. No separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. Whether the offence reaches this row at all is exactly what was not established, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this row's exposure.rows. That is where the practical difficulty now sits, and it is a different difficulty from the one the applied cell described. The family is caught in part, because the Примітка to Таблиця I, Список № 2, reaches the naphthoylindole and related derivative groups but names no indazole, and a compound caught only by that clause has no row of its own and therefore no band of its own. A compound that is printed by name, as JWH-018 is, carries the band written against its row. Herbal material sprayed with one of these compounds is weighed as a preparation and this source states no rule for that. No separate possession article is named.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity of a listed substance, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. Attached to this row there is no single placement at all under record UKR-83, and no medicinal product is built on any member of this family, so no prescription question arises. No import permit, allowance or foreign prescription rule was established here, and none was researched. Do not read an unresolved class as an unregulated one.The placement attached to this row is now a real one: the derivative clause in the Примітка to Таблиця I, Список № 2, with individually printed rows such as JWH-018 inside the same list. That list is the prohibited one, so no medicinal route runs through it at all. The Примітка carves out medicinal products containing tryptamine derivatives, and a separate clause of its own carves out medicinal products containing phenethylamine derivatives, and both are carve outs for other families rather than for this one. No medicinal product is built on any member of this family. No import permit, allowance or foreign prescription rule was established here and none was researched.
Documentation: Carry nothing in reliance on this row, because it says the label does not identify a substance rather than saying anything about a substance. Only a laboratory report naming the actual compound would mean anything, and that report would then be read against the individual Ukrainian headings. Herbal blends sold in sealed packets are the usual presentation and their labels state nothing reliable. A traveller carrying a prescribed cannabis based medicine should carry the prescription, the dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name and a prescriber's letter. Read on 20 September 2026.. The reason has changed since the applied cell: the objection is no longer that Ukraine cannot reach the family, because it can, but that the family sits in the prohibited table and nothing lawful can be documented against it. A laboratory report naming the actual compound still matters, because it decides whether the item is caught by a printed row with its own quantity band or only by the derivative clause. Herbal blends sold in sealed packets are the usual presentation and their labels state nothing reliable. A traveller carrying a prescribed cannabis based medicine is on a different row entirely and should carry the prescription, the dispensing pack, the pharmacy label in the patient's name and a prescriber's letter.

Synthetic Cannabinoids (K2 / Spice) in Ukraine, full detail →

THC-P

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by its own name as a psychotropic substance whose circulation is restricted. The list prints «Tetrahydrocannabiphorol» «(THCP; тетрагідроканабіфорол)» with the chemical name «3-гептил-6a,7,8,10a-тетрагідро-6,6,9-триметил-6H-дибензо[b,d]піран-1-ол» in Таблиця II, Список № 2, headed «Психотропні речовини, обіг яких обмежено». It is a separate row from the tetrahydrocannabinol entry, which the amending act of 5 February 2026 rewrote without touching this row, and from the hexahydro relative «Hexahydrocannabiphorol». The list was read at https://web.archive.org/web/20260112104514/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026, the publisher's own print view of Постанова Кабінету Міністрів України № 770 від 6 травня 2000 року in the redaction of 13 September 2025, basis 692-2025-п, as captured by the Internet Archive with the publisher's currency line of 12 January 2026. The one later amending act, Постанова № 146 of 5 February 2026, was read in full at https://web.archive.org/web/20260212034633/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/146-2026-%D0%BF/print on 3 October 2026. It adds two synthetic cannabinoid entries, rewrites the tetrahydrocannabinol entry of Таблиця II, Список № 2, and moves piperonal and red phosphorus within Таблиця IV, and it touches no entry quoted in this cell. The publisher's card captured on 16 August 2026 at https://web.archive.org/web/20260816050801/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/770-2000-%D0%BF names the current redaction as 7 June 2026 on the basis of 146-2026-п. This does not rule out a later amendment made after 16 August 2026. The publisher host itself refused every connection from here on 3 October 2026.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Article 51 of the Criminal Code lists every punishment a Ukrainian court may impose and ends at «довічне позбавлення волі»; it lists no death penalty, and none of articles 305 to 318 provides a life term. This row is in Таблиця II, Список № 2, a restricted rather than prohibited list, so article 307 starts at part 1 and the especially dangerous limb does not apply. Sale, or production, acquisition, storage or transport for sale, under article 307 is four to eight years under part 1 with no confiscation, six to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group, a large size or sale in a place of mass gathering, and nine to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group, an especially large size or the involvement of a child. Smuggling under article 305 is five to eight years under part 1, eight to ten years with confiscation of property under part 2 for repetition, a group or a large size, and ten to twelve years with confiscation under part 3 for an organised group or an especially large size. Possession, acquisition, storage or transport without intent to sell under article 309 is a fine of 1,000 to 3,000 tax free minimum incomes, correctional labour of up to two years, or probation supervision or restriction of liberty of up to five years under part 1; a fine of 2,000 to 5,000 tax free minimum incomes or imprisonment of up to three years under part 2 for a group, a repeat within a year or a large size; and five to eight years under part 3 for an especially large size or the involvement of a minor. Part 4 releases from liability a person who voluntarily seeks treatment for addiction. Trafficking or sale under article 307 thus spans four to twelve years across its three parts, with confiscation of property attached only in parts 2 and 3. Article 316, the public use offence, names only «наркотичних засобів» and not psychotropic substances, so its text does not reach this row; use in private is not itself an offence in the articles read either. Article 310 penalises growing only opium poppy and cannabis, so it does not reach this row. Below the criminal threshold, article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses punishes production, acquisition, storage, transport or sending of a small amount of a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance without intent to sell by a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days, and releases a person who surrenders the substance voluntarily. That article was read on 3 October 2026 only on the secondary publisher https://urst.com.ua/kupap/st-44, whose own currency line gives a redaction of 11 February 2022, because the official host refused the connection. The small, large and especially large sizes that move a case between article 44 and the parts of articles 309 and 307 are set by Ministry of Health Order No. 188 (наказ МОЗ № 188 від 01.08.2000). Its Table 1 covers narcotic drugs only, and its separate table for psychotropic substances was not in the text read in this run, so no gram figure is stated for this row. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine taken from Кримінальний кодекс України in the redaction of 18 September 2026, basis 4986-IX, read at https://web.archive.org/web/20261001134802/https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/2341-14/print on 3 October 2026 with the publisher's currency line of 1 October 2026, and none of them is a quantity threshold.
If prescribed / medical: Restricted, not prohibited, under the heading «обіг яких обмежено», but this run found no Ukrainian authorised medicine containing this compound and read no licensing law, so a product bought legally elsewhere gives no cover in Ukraine.

Tobacco

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine by the tobacco control and excise regime rather than by the narcotics list. Record UKR-85 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the controls which apply are Ukraine's tobacco control and excise rules on manufacture, packaging, health warnings, advertising, smoking in public places, sale to minors and duty. The finding is that regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the list rather than an independent confirmation, and the source names no individual instrument within the tobacco regime, so none is cited here. The negative half is unmeasured. The narcotics check logs "tobacco" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, against an annex the source records as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have matched a Cyrillic heading. The tobacco control and excise finding is the one carrying this cell and it does not depend on that search.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach tobacco on this record because no heading was accepted for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it either. The exposure is fiscal and regulatory: excise evasion, unmarked product, breaches of the public smoking and advertising rules and sale to minors, enforced administratively and at customs. This source reproduces none of those provisions, their penalties or the personal import allowance, so none of them is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule for scheduled substances is no personal use allowance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 rather than a traveller's allowance, and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a scheduled medicine. No limb of it engages on this row, because record UKR-85 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading, and tobacco is not a medicine so no prescription question arises. What matters to a traveller is the customs and excise allowance rather than any medicines rule, and that allowance was not established in this source and was not researched. A nicotine replacement medicine is a different product governed by the medicines law and not by this row.
Documentation: Carry tobacco products within the customs allowance, in their retail packaging, with the duty marking intact and receipts available, because on this record the Ukrainian controls are excise, labelling and customs controls rather than narcotics controls. Declare quantities above the allowance rather than waiting to be asked. Confirm the current allowance before travelling, since record UKR-85 establishes only that no narcotics heading was accepted and states no quantity. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-85: the Ukrainian tobacco control and excise legislation governs this product, and the source names no individual instrument within it.

Tramadol

Legal status: Recorded in Ukraine as a medicine rather than as a scheduled substance, and this is the weakest of the negative records in the set. Record UKR-86 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the regime which applies is Закон України «Про лікарські засоби». The finding is the medicines regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the list rather than an independent confirmation, and this synthetic opioid has been brought under national control in a great many countries precisely because it falls outside the international schedules, so the negative should be verified against the current list before anyone relies on it. Here is the concrete reason the negative is weak. The narcotics check logs "tramadol" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, run against an annex this source records as printed in Cyrillic. A Latin search of a Cyrillic annex returns nothing whether or not the opioid is listed, so the negative was never measured at all. Treat the placement of this opioid as an open question and verify it against the current list before relying on anything here.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law provides no death penalty. On this record the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach the substance because record UKR-86 accepted no heading, and наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it. That conclusion is conditional on the negative being right. If the current Перелік carries a heading for this opioid, the ceiling and a band attach and this record is wrong rather than merely thin. The exposure under the medicines regime, for unauthorised supply or import, is not reproduced by this source and no article or figure from it is stated. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule is no personal use allowance for a scheduled substance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 rather than a traveller's allowance, and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a medicine. On this record it engages only through that medicines limb, because record UKR-86 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading, so on this record the traveller is carrying a prescription medicine. Whether Ukraine treats it as prescription only, what personal import quantity is permitted and whether a foreign prescription is recognised were not established and were not researched. Because this is an opioid and because the negative record is fragile, a patient should carry the documentation appropriate to a controlled medicine and verify the current list before travelling.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the formulation including whether it is modified release, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period, the indication and the total quantity in milligrams. Treat this as you would a controlled opioid even though record UKR-86 does not classify it as one, and check the current consolidated Перелік for a heading before travelling. The reading behind this record was taken on 20 September 2026.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-86: Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» governs this opioid as a medicinal product, and the source names no article within that law.

Xanax (Alprazolam)

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name as a single molecule. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints the heading «Алпразолам» and fixes it at CAS 28981-97-7, and record UKR-16 accepts that printed row rather than reasoning from the empowering provision. The list prints its headings in capitals and this one is given here in sentence case. This is also a medicine with genuine therapeutic use, so the row carries two statuses at once: a listed heading under the Перелік approved by стаття 7 of Закон України «Про наркотичні засоби, психотропні речовини і прекурсори», and a prescription medicine under Закон України «Про лікарські засоби». The source does not state which of таблиці I to IV the heading occupies, which matters because the table decides the handling regime.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukrainian law carries no death penalty. The trade article the source names is Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, whose third part sets a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment, and the source records that no life sentence is provided in that article. Because the heading at CAS 28981-97-7 is matched by name, наказ МОЗ № 188 supplies the small, large and especially large bands for this molecule, and for a tablet medicine those bands are what turn a quantity of a lawful prescription into a criminal grading question. This source does not reproduce the numeric figures, so no tablet count or milligram figure is stated here, and no separate possession article is named by it. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity in the narcotics sense, and наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than authorising carriage. A scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs, and this row is exactly such a medicine: the placement is a matched heading at CAS 28981-97-7 and the product is a prescribed anxiolytic. What the source does not establish is the traveller mechanism. No import permit procedure, no personal quantity allowance and no rule recognising a foreign prescription was found, and none was researched. The prescription is necessary on this record and cannot be said to be sufficient.
Documentation: Carry the prescription itself, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a letter from the prescriber naming the active ingredient, the strength, the daily dose, the treatment period and the total number of tablets carried. Do not decant tablets into an unlabelled container. Keep the quantity within the treatment period stated in the letter, because the Ukrainian grading bands under наказ МОЗ № 188 attach to the heading at CAS 28981-97-7 regardless of the prescription. Declare the medicine rather than waiting to be asked. The heading was read in the consolidated list on 20 September 2026.

Xylazine

Legal status: Governed in Ukraine as a veterinary medicine rather than as a scheduled substance. Record UKR-87 reports that Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, was searched and no narcotics or psychotropic heading was accepted, and that the controls which apply are Ukraine's veterinary medicines legislation on authorisation, supply through veterinary channels, record keeping and import. The finding is the veterinary regime. The absence of a narcotics heading is a negative record from one reading of the list rather than an independent confirmation, and this sedative has appeared as an adulterant in illicit opioid supply in several countries, which is the pressure that leads to scheduling elsewhere. The negative half is unmeasured. The narcotics check logs "xylazine" and the same word in capitals, both Latin, against an annex recorded as printed in Cyrillic, so it could not have matched a Cyrillic heading. The veterinary finding stands on its own, and given that this substance is being scheduled elsewhere as an adulterant the narcotics question should be treated as open.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine provides no death penalty, and the narcotics ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment under Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, does not reach this substance on this record because record UKR-87 accepted no heading for it. Наказ МОЗ № 188 has no band for it either. Where the substance is found as an adulterant, the listed substance it is mixed with carries its own heading and its own band, and that is what the grading would run on. The veterinary regime's own provisions and penalties are not reproduced by this source, so no article and no figure is stated here. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. This row is placed outside the narcotics regime, so they are recorded as Ukraine's published drug penalties and not as this substance's exposure.
If prescribed / medical: The Ukrainian country rule for scheduled substances is no personal use allowance, criminal grading under наказ МОЗ № 188 rather than a traveller's allowance, and compliance with Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» for a scheduled medicine. No limb of it engages on this row, because record UKR-87 is a separate regime finding with no accepted narcotics heading. This is not a human medicine, so there is no human prescription route and none should be described. A veterinarian moving clinical stock is subject to the veterinary supply and import rules, and this source establishes neither those rules nor any traveller allowance, and none was researched. Nothing here authorises a private individual to hold the substance.
Documentation: Carry the veterinary practice authorisation, the purchase and inventory records and the labelled original containers if the substance is being moved for clinical use, because on this record the controls are veterinary supply controls rather than narcotics controls. A private individual has no document that makes carriage appropriate. An animal owner travelling with a sedated animal should carry the treating veterinarian's letter and the animal's health record instead. The narcotics list was read on 20 September 2026 and record UKR-87 rests on a negative reading of it.

Ukraine, separate regime finding, record UKR-87: the Ukrainian veterinary medicines legislation governs this substance, and the source names no individual instrument within it.

Zolpidem

Legal status: Controlled in Ukraine by name. Постанова № 770, таблиці I to IV, consolidated text read on 20 September 2026, prints «Золпідем» at CAS 82626-48-0 and record UKR-88 accepts that printed row; the heading is in sentence case here because the list prints in capitals. It is worth being exact about what is listed. This is an imidazopyridine and not a diazepine, so it is not one of the six members that decide the class question elsewhere in this source, and Ukraine reaches it by its own name rather than through any class clause. It is also a widely prescribed hypnotic, so the row carries a listed heading and a medicines regime under Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» at the same time.
Consequences if caught: Capital exposure: none. Ukraine has no death penalty, and Кримінальний кодекс України, стаття 307, the trade article named by this source, carries a ceiling of twelve years of imprisonment at its third part with no life sentence provided. That is a trafficking ceiling and not the position of a patient holding a prescription. Because the heading at CAS 82626-48-0 is matched, наказ МОЗ № 188 keys its small, large and especially large bands to this molecule. A repeat prescription of low milligram tablets accumulates quickly, which is where a lawful supply meets a band. No figures are reproduced and no separate possession article is named. Separately from that, and carried forward from this site's published Ukraine entry rather than re-derived from the Code in this pass, the published penalties are these. Personal use of a small amount is administrative under article 44 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine of 25 to 50 tax free minimum incomes, 20 to 60 hours of community service, or administrative arrest of up to 15 days. Above small, personal use under article 309 is criminal, a fine, correctional labour of up to two years, or restriction of liberty of up to five years, rising to up to three years where aggravated or large and up to eight years where a minor is involved. Trafficking or sale under article 307 draws four to twelve years with property forfeiture. Smuggling under article 305 draws five to eight years, and up to eight to ten years aggravated. The published entry records the small, large and especially large quantity thresholds as very low, and that trace amounts have triggered article 309. Drug use itself, other than in public, is not criminal there. Every figure in this paragraph is a penalty range or a fine and none of them is a quantity threshold. They describe the offences that this row's placement in the Ukrainian list brings into play.
If prescribed / medical: Ukraine allows no personal use quantity in the narcotics sense, наказ МОЗ № 188 grades criminal conduct rather than licensing carriage, and a scheduled medicine must additionally satisfy Закон України «Про лікарські засоби» on prescription, packaging, import and customs. On this row the placement is a matched heading at CAS 82626-48-0 and the usual traveller is a patient carrying a short course for insomnia or for jet lag. No import permit, no personal allowance and no rule recognising a foreign prescription was established in this source, and none was researched. The prescription is necessary on this record and cannot be called sufficient.
Documentation: Carry the prescription, the original dispensing pack with the pharmacy label in the patient's own name, and a prescriber's letter naming the active ingredient, the formulation including whether it is modified release, the strength, the nightly dose, the treatment period and the total number of tablets. Keep the quantity to the stated period rather than carrying an accumulated repeat supply, because the bands under наказ МОЗ № 188 attach to the heading at CAS 82626-48-0 whatever the reason for carriage. Do not decant. Declare on arrival. Read on 20 September 2026.
