Thailand And Protein Powder

[bopperspredoz]

hey all, apologies if i am in the wrong section, but i need a bit of assistance. i am traveling to thailand for a few weeks, and am intending on bringing a sealed protein powder. i have heard from a number of people that this is illegal?

could someone please confirm this, as i do not want to cause any trouble to my traveling party. is there any official laws against this or anyone with first hand experience?

cheers

edit: might help to say, i am traveling from australia.

Make sure it is clearly labeled and in plain sight in your suitcases. You will not have any problems. No it is not illegal.

I tend to bring Myoplex sachets in with me; yet to be stopped though, so no idea of the legality

You can buy this in thailand in most pharmacies so why bring it with you?, ok its more expensive than europe (around 1600baht kg) but if not make sure its unopened and labelled etc..

I heard if you walk through customs without pants on and a used condom on your head, they'll let you bring it in.

JUST A RUMOUR THOUGH.

it depends on the amount....i have brought in small amounts with no problem but one year a friend in the states sent me a birthday present of a six month supply of various supplements from the states (all of which are legal here) but it was confiscated because they said the quantity indicated that it was for resale...if it is not in the original packaging you are also asking for trouble....
