My parents are coming to visit for 5 months, and they need to bring about 20 boxes of paxil with them for anti-depression. Would this be an issue at SFO airport CBP? They do have prescription, but not in English.
It's better to have prescription in English, else they are are gonna probably have some issues . 20 boxes also might be an issue , most things above a certain quantity is considered commercial import
Where are they coming from?
China. Does it matter?
Well if it were Iran, yeah. But idk about China.
I’d definitely recommend them having their prescription in the original container with the prescription printed on the container and/or a prescription in English. Typically, you should only travel with a 90 day supply or enough to get them through their travels. 20 boxes is a lot though. It’ll def raise red flags
A 5 month supply isn’t much more than a 3 month supply. Sounds like they put 7 days worth in one box in China, so 20 boxes sounds like a lot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
20 boxes is definitely gonna get you stopped by CBP. But as long as they have prescriptions they'll be fine.
20 boxes!! How many people are visiting? 20 boxes will raise a lot of eyebrows.
If you read the post, you’ll realize that one box seems to be only a supply of one week.
It's the CBP, OP has to convince. Right off the bat, 20 boxes seems like a lot. If that's just a week's supply, then why not.
