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    Zero tolerance: 1.5 µg THC per liter of blood or more means unfit to drive; licence withdrawn for at least 3 months.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

Lausanne runs its own pilot trial, Cann-L, with Addiction Suisse. It chose a non-profit store model: a single city-center sales point run by an association, which opened on December 11, 2023. At launch it offered three types of flower; the range now includes flower, resin, oils and e-liquids.

Participation is limited to adults who live in Lausanne and already use cannabis, with exclusions for pregnancy, breastfeeding and certain health problems. Nearly 2,000 people were taking part, and the project said registrations were open in 2026, with new places released each week. People living elsewhere in Vaud cannot join.

Outside the trial, the national rules apply across the canton. CBD shops sell hemp products with less than 1% THC. Possession of up to 10 grams by adults is not punished, but consumption brings a CHF 100 fine, and driving with 1.5 micrograms of THC per liter of blood or more is treated as unfit to drive. Medical cannabis requires a doctor's prescription.
