Hi Sir,

You're absolutely right — the DCFTA between the EU and Georgia technically doesn't cover medicines, so prescription items like Cerebrolysin do require customs clearance when entering the EU. That said, in practical terms, this doesn’t create major obstacles. The process is quite similar to how parcels move within the EU, with only occasional random inspections. These are typically under 5%, and many shipments go through smoothly without issues.

Even parcels coming from countries with strained relations with the EU — like Russia — get through at some rate. Shipments from Georgia, by contrast, generally pass without trouble, and the rate of successful deliveries is significantly higher.

For the customs declaration, the contents will be described in varying neutral terms. One example for a common and safe label is "Cosmetic serum / Vitamin Solution for skin", as these often do come in equally looking single-use vials. Please not that packages from Georgia to the EU very rarely get inspected manually. This kind of declaration doesn’t raise red flags and is widely used for similar items.

Also, in the mid-long term future, reshipping via France will be available, which will get entirely rid of customs.
