  • Drugs are not legal in Portugal. It’s decriminalised up to small amounts (ie personal use), which is different.

    My understanding is that:

    If you get caught with a couple of joints (or any drugs), they are confiscated, you are identified and you might have to pay a fine, do community service or go to an addiction consultation.

    If you’re over that limit, but not overly, you get the above + go to court and will likely receive suspended sentence and will have a criminal record.

    If you get caught with a truckload (obviously for distribution), if it’s your first offence you’ll likely also get suspended sentence, such is the state of our justice. If it’s not your first offence, you’ll likely do jail time.
