Cannabis law in Malta
Legal — adult and medical useMalta operates a dual system for cannabis access. Patients access medical cannabis through a prescription-based programme regulated by the Malta Medicines Authority, while adults may access non-medical cannabis through licensed non-profit Cannabis Harm Reduction Associations (CHRAs) regulated by the Authority for the Responsible Use of Cannabis (ARUC).
- Medical cannabis is available via prescription from licensed medical practitioners for specific conditions.
- Adults (18+) who are residents may join one licensed non-profit association to obtain cannabis.
- Personal possession of up to 7 grams is not a crime for adults; possession between 7 and 28 grams is subject to a tribunal fine.
- Residents may cultivate up to 4 plants at home, provided they are not visible from outside and storage does not exceed 50 grams.
- Public use and use in front of minors are prohibited.
