Tips for shipping medicine to Venezuela from the United States: quantities, prohibited medications, packing, costs and shipping times.
With our services, you can ship medicine to Venezuela from the United States. In this post, we go over in detail all the recommendations you need to know for shipping medicine. We invite you to keep these considerations in mind to avoid delays or setbacks in the shipping process.
How much medicine can you ship from the United States to Venezuela?
We recommend shipping a maximum of 6 units of the same item per waybill, especially for medications. If you exceed it, you may face unnecessary delays or seizures during the customs process in Venezuela. Vitamins, minerals and natural homeopathic products are also considered medicine, so the same conditions apply.
Which medications are prohibited from being shipped to Venezuela from the United States?
Medications that require special shipping conditions or refrigeration cannot be shipped. In addition, all medications shipped must be over-the-counter; if they are prescription treatments, they must be accompanied by a copy of the prescription.
How should you pack medicine?
We recommend packing medications in their original boxes together with other items such as clothing, shoes or non-perishable food, so they are distributed in a mixed way.
How much does it cost to ship medicine to Venezuela from the United States?
The shipping cost to Venezuela depends on the weight and the service you choose. To calculate an approximate cost, check our shipping rates to Venezuela section.

How long does it take to ship medicine to Venezuela from the United States?
Shipping time is an important factor, especially if the medicine is part of a treatment or is needed urgently. Check the receiving cutoff and departure dates on our departure calendar. The transit time depends on the shipping service you choose:
For air shipments, the estimated delivery time is approximately 7 to 15 business days from the formal departure from Miami. If the package is going to Táchira, Mérida, Apure or Nueva Esparta, it may take a little longer.
For ocean shipments, the delivery time is approximately 4 to 6 weeks from the formal departure from Miami.
Note: times are estimates and may vary due to operational, customs or transportation factors.
