Default UK Steroid Law.

Hi All here goes.

All the steroids we use ( BUT NOT VETINERARY ) + Growth Hormone is legal to possess and import for personal use.

Steroids are now Class 'C' under the Misuse Of Drugs Act. but they also come under the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001. Schedule 4 part 2 this make them exempt so you can possess for your own personal use.

Importation; this is covered by Home Office Circular 29 of Sept 1996. paragraphs 8,9 & 14. This states that even without an import licence you can import steroids or hGH for your own personal use.

Now then how much can you have in your possession. The Police, CPS or most other agencies have no bloody idea. Lets see if I can help. In 2005 I had a mate in Mansfield who had just over £800.00. worth siezed from his house. After speaking to his Solicitor who I knew through my ex job and advising my mate to work out cycles for the amount the Police had seized. He was not charged and all the steroids returned to him.

Now then, How much can one import. I liaised with both the Home Office Drug Section and Customs and once again they had no bloody idea. After some consultation with both I then received an Email from the Home Office advising that the most I should send for at one time is 6 months supply.

So what do we do, right, lets say you send for 400 ius of hGH. if stopped at Customs for any reason because they think its a lot. just tell them it's 50 days use. ie: 8ius a day. So using this as a guide it should be easy to work out what you can safely send for.

One little stumbling block; If who ever sends you the goods marks the parcel up as containing some other goods and they are stopped the Customs will keep. Either get the senders to mark the parcel as 'GIFT' or that it does infact contain the correct goods ie hGH or Steroids for personal use but not to show value. If held by the Customs who will contact you, just give them a lot lower value so they don't charge much import duty.

Same applies if you go on holiday and bring them back from abroad into the UK. Just in case you are stopped have some sheet knocked out showing what your cycles are to cover the amount you have in your possession. Just up the cycles a bit, same as I said earlier they have know idea what amounts we take, but be sensible.

Hope this helps, anything you don't grasp send me an Email. e.parker1@btinternet.com.

All the best Eddie

Default Re: UK Steroid Law.

Just thought I'd share this info on importation and how much gear is classed as personal use.
A close friend returned from Thailand in January 2007 and was pulled by Customs. He had 250 boxes of Testoviron and 5000 Winstrol tabs in his case. He immediately pointed these out to the Customs Officer who glanced into the bag and said 'No Problem.'
He then asked how much was classed as personal use and the Custom's guy explanation was that there was no figure set but it was entirely down to their own discretion.
Basically, he said that my mate who's a competitive bodybuilder weighing around 20 stone at the moment would have no problem saying that what he had was personal. However, there are apparently 9 stone teenagers coming through with suitcases full. Surprise surprise that's not accepted as personal use.
Hope this helps if you're thinking of bringing some gear in from abroad.
