The rules

Key rules in Switzerland

Plain-language summary. The regulator is Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH/BAG).

  • Legal threshold

    Hemp and CBD products under 1% THC are outside the Narcotics Act; 1% or more is a controlled narcotic.

  • Possession

    Up to 10 g for personal use by adults is not punished.

  • Public use

    Consumption brings a CHF 100 fixed fine for adults carrying under 10 g; trial participants may not use in public either.

  • Home grow

    Growing THC cannabis, even for personal use, remains punishable.

  • Medical

    Doctors may prescribe cannabis medicines without FOPH approval since August 1, 2022.

  • Pilot trials

    Legal purchase only for enrolled adults (18+) in authorised trials, restricted to local residents; one trial per person.

  • Driving

    Zero tolerance: 1.5 µg THC per liter of blood or more means unfit to drive; licence withdrawn for at least 3 months.

How it works

How cannabis is sold in Uster

Uster's cannabis business is a CBD producer on Strickstrasse, selling hemp flower that stays below the Swiss 1% THC line.

What does Qualicann actually sell?

The register entry describes CBD oils, flowers and hash under 1% THC, made in the Zurich Oberland since 2017 and shipped across Switzerland. It is a producer and online shop, and Verdex has no confirmation of a walk-in counter at Strickstrasse 1.

Yes, below 1% THC. Smokable flower is also taxed like a tobacco substitute, and the details are in the Swiss CBD guide. Anything above the line is a narcotic outside authorised trials and prescriptions.

Can Uster residents join Züri Can?

That trial is run by the University of Zurich with the City of Zurich, and participation requires living in the city, so Uster residents are outside it. It has 2,462 enrolled participants and 21 sales points. Enrolment began in March 2023, sales in August 2023, the monthly participant cap rose from 2,100 to 3,000 in November 2024, and in March 2026 the end date moved to October 2028.

Where do THC products fit?

They do not, in Uster. Medical cannabis needs a prescription, and recreational supply exists only in the trial cities. The Zurich canton page covers the rest.

Cannabis in Uster: questions

Can I buy THC cannabis in Uster?

Not legally over a counter. Recreational supply exists only inside pilot trials such as Züri Can, which is limited to city residents.

Is Qualicann a shop or a producer?

The register calls it a CBD producer and online shop, so orders are shipped, and a visitor should confirm whether Strickstrasse 1 takes walk-ins.
