FAQ
Common questions
Is marijuana legal in San Marino?
Recreational marijuana is illegal in the Republic of San Marino. The Sammarinese Criminal Code and Law No. 78 of 2 June 1994 (Disciplina degli stupefacenti) regulate narcotics and prohibit possession, cultivation, sale, and supply of cannabis.
Is CBD legal in San Marino?
CBD is effectively illegal in San Marino for recreational and wellness retail. Law No. 78/1994 controls cannabis-derived substances, and the Istituto per la Sicurezza Sociale (ISS), San Marino's health authority, regulates pharmaceuticals on a model that closely tracks Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA) practice.
Is hemp legal in San Marino?
Industrial hemp is effectively illegal in San Marino. Law No. 78/1994 controls Cannabis sativa L. without a domestic low-THC carve-out comparable to Italian Law 242/2016, and no Sammarinese industrial hemp licensing scheme has been established.
Can you travel to San Marino with cannabis or CBD?
Import and export of cannabis are prohibited. CBD imports for commercial sale are prohibited without ISS authorization.

Seed Legality
Cannabis is illegal, but San Marino has no published rules on viable seeds; status remains unclear.

San Marino prohibits narcotics, with possession, import or trafficking punishable by three to eight years' imprisonment, and cannabis cultivation is illegal. No published Sammarinese provision specifically addresses viable cannabis or hemp seeds, and the microstate has no hemp programme or CBD regulation, so seed status could not be verified and is recorded as unclear. Limited medical use exists only through state-supplied Sativex for multiple sclerosis and spinal-injury patients.
