Cannabis Laws in Mallorca 2024
Understanding the current legal framework for cannabis in Mallorca, including personal use, social clubs, and tourist regulations.
Personal Use and Possession
In Spain, including Mallorca, cannabis possession and consumption in private spaces is decriminalized. However, public consumption remains illegal and can result in fines. The law allows for personal cultivation of cannabis plants for private use, though this must be out of public view.
Cannabis Social Clubs
Cannabis Social Clubs operate in a legal grey area under Spanish law. They must be registered as non-profit associations and can only serve registered members who are permanent residents. As of 2024, clubs must maintain strict membership protocols and quality control measures.
Tourist Regulations
Currently, tourists cannot legally join cannabis social clubs in Mallorca. This restriction is part of local regulations aimed at preventing cannabis tourism. Visitors should be aware that purchasing or consuming cannabis outside of registered clubs is illegal.
Penalties and Enforcement
Public consumption can result in fines from €600 to €30,000. Trafficking or selling cannabis is a criminal offense with potential prison sentences. Administrative sanctions may be reduced through voluntary participation in drug education programs.
