Marijuana Laws & Legislation for Cartagena
Marijuana is legal for medical use in Colombia, and the country has been at the forefront of cannabis reform in Latin America. Medical cannabis was legalized in 2016, and patients can access cannabis-based treatments through a prescription. Colombia also allows cannabis cultivation for medical and industrial purposes, with strict regulations in place. Recreational marijuana remains illegal, but small amounts for personal use have been decriminalized, meaning they are treated as a minor offense, often resulting in fines rather than criminal charges. Cannabis reform continues to evolve in Colombia, and discussions about legalizing recreational marijuana are ongoing.
Please note that marijuana laws are subject to change. For the most current information, consult your countries official resources or legal counsel.
Law Enforcement
Always be discrete when using marijuana. Police is everywhere in Colombia and if they catch you using weed, it would really be an easy way for them to get a good bribe from you.
NEVER TRAVEL IN COLOMBIA WITH YOUR WEED. Police deeply search your bags and there are dogs at every airport.

Just watch out for the cops, but no rip-off the two times I went there. Once you purchased, go directly to your hotel to stock up the weed as you never know if the dealer is hooked with police.
