Q:

Do you handle psychotropic drugs?

A:

We apologize, but we do not handle any products classified as psychotropic drugs, narcotics, stimulants, or their precursor raw materials.


Regulatory Compliance and Safety Management


  • Reason for Exclusion: Strict Legal Restrictions

    The import, export, and domestic distribution of psychotropic substances are strictly limited to specific licensed entities under the 'Narcotics and Psychotropics Control Act' of Japan and the international 'Convention on Psychotropic Substances.' To maintain the highest standards of legal compliance, we exclude all products within these regulatory categories from our lineup.


  • Key Restricted Categories

    • Psychotropic drugs (Schedule I, II, and III)

    • Narcotics, Opium, and Stimulants

    • Designated Substances (under the PMD Act)


  • Notice to Customers

    If you are unsure whether a desired ingredient falls into these restricted categories, please verify with your local regulatory authorities or professional institutions before requesting a quote. If a requested item is found to be a regulated substance, we will be unable to provide a quotation.


Advice Regarding Procurement

  • Consideration of Alternative Ingredients: You may still request quotes for non-regulated alternative ingredients or pharmaceuticals in other categories that may offer comparable efficacy.

  • Importance of Non-Applicability Certificates: If you require documentation proving that a specific ingredient is 'Not Applicable' to these restricted categories for customs clearance, please consult our specialists via Messages.
