I have heard that some things that I can use in other countries are prohibited in PNG. Is this true?

It is best to be careful when bringing anything into PNG.  Many items considered legal in another country may be prohibited in PNG.

For example if you are bringing medicine prescribed by a doctor then it is necessary to bring the prescription from your physician advising that the medicine is being used under a doctor's direction and is necessary for your physical well being.  Do not repack the medicine they must be in their original containers.

Take care with video's and films and books as literature considered "mild" in some other countries with more relaxed censorship laws may land you in BIG trouble if you try to bring them into PNG.

Be extra careful with any food, plants, animals etc.
