Is cannabis decriminalized in Slovenia?

Yes, cannabis is decriminalized in Slovenia. Small amounts of drug possession for personal use are not considered crimes in Slovenia; instead, they are misdemeanors, punishable by fines between €36 and €179. If the offender consents to receiving treatment, this can be decreased even more.

Although possessing the plant is decriminalized, growing and selling it is not. A person may spend one to fifteen years in prison if they are proven to “manufacture and traffic illicit drugs” or “facilitate the consumption of illicit drugs.” Offering narcotics to minors or for personal use carries a six-month to eight-year prison sentence.
