Portugal Decriminalized

Since 2001, possession up to 25g flower / 5g hash is an administrative matter, not a crime. There are no licensed adult-use shops — recreational supply runs through gray-market channels despite decriminalization.

Medical program
Legal framework since 2018; licensed pharmacies dispense cannabis-based medicines with a qualifying prescription.
Traveling with medical cannabis
No official statement found confirming a formal 'bring your prescription' right — decriminalization covers possession enforcement, not import rights. Don't assume the two are the same.
Information for general guidance only, not legal advice. Laws change — verify with official sources before traveling.
