My husband and I have relocated to the UAE from the US. Our shipment is due to arrive next month. My concern is that the company who packed our belongings did not allow us to go through them before packing it all. Basically I don't know what is coming. This may include all of the cold medications and vitamins that were in our medicine cabinet. I realize that some common meds that we use in the US are not legal here but am not clear on which ones or what is in the shipment for that matter. If any of this is not legal here what will happen when it goes through customs? I do not need these things so if they simply dispose of it that is fine, but will we be fined or arrested?
Any information on this subject will be appreciated as it has caused me great stress! I was not happy with this moving company but there was nothing I could do after they packed and hauled it to the shipping yard last December. Believe me I tried as they also packed my wallet!!
