Dear bross_gf,
According to the German Betäubungsmittelgesetz (BtMG, Narcotics Law),
importing a coca plant (Erythroxylum Coca and all varieties) or parts
thereof is only legal if:
- General permission for handling narcotics was granted by the
Bundesinstitut für Arzneimittel und Medizinprodukte (Federal Institute
for Medicaments and Pharmaceutical Products), see §3 Abs. 1.1 BtMG
- Specific permission for import was granted by the Bundesinstitut für
Arzneimittel und Medizinprodukte (Federal Institute for Medicaments
and Pharmaceutical Products), see §11 Abs. 1 BtMG
The coca plant, including its leaves and all other parts, are
considered narcotics according to §1 Abs. 1, Anlage II BtMG and are
thus subject to the above regulations.
For details about the how to apply for those permissions, please refer to:
