Cannabis laws in France

Cannabis is still illegal in France, despite the fact that it is one of the countries in Europe with the highest number of marijuana users.

France is making slow but steady progress toward legalizing marijuana for recreational use. However, you should be aware that this is not the case. Keep your hash or marijuana use private and avoid smoking it in public. If you can avoid dealing with the police while on vacation, that would be ideal.

Cannabis was decriminalized at the end of 2018 in France, making life in Nice a lot easier. Currently, if you are caught with a few grams of marijuana on you that are intended for your own personal use, you will only be fined a maximum of 300 euros.

In principle, pursuant to Article R. 5132-86 of the French Public Health Code (PHC), the culture, manufacture, transport, import, export, holding, offer, transfer, acquisition and use of cannabis (plant and resin) and THC (natural and synthetic and derived products) are prohibited.

Nonetheless, same Article provides derogations for medical purposes. The pharmaceutical establishments and any establishments authorized by the French Health Agency (ANSM) to manufacture, import, and distribute active substances may be allowed to perform the above-mentioned acts, including, since 1st March 2022, the culture and production of cannabis, subject that the concerned product:

1. Received an authorization (i.e. Market Authorization, Early Access Authorization, Compassionate Access Authorization or Import Authorization); or
2. Was registered as homeopathic drug; and
3. Meets the requirements set by an upcoming Decree which will be published by the Health Ministry on a proposal from the Director of the ANSM and is manufactured as required by Article L. 5121-5 PHC or any equivalent internationally recognized standards to guarantee its quality, security and its medical purpose (in this case, the establishment is not allowed to offer and use the concerned product).
