Marijuana Laws & Legislation for Perth
Marijuana is legal for both medical and recreational use in various parts of Australia as of 2025. Cannabis laws in Australia vary by state, with medical cannabis being legal nationwide since 2016. Patients with qualifying conditions, such as chronic pain, epilepsy, or cancer, can access cannabis-based treatments through a prescription. Recreational marijuana is legal in some states and territories, including the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), where adults aged 18 and over can possess up to 50 grams of cannabis and grow up to two plants for personal use. However, recreational use remains illegal in other states and is subject to penalties. The cannabis industry in Australia is growing, with each state having different rules for the cultivation and sale of cannabis. Despite these advancements, marijuana laws are still restrictive in many areas, and the federal government continues to regulate the industry.
Please note that marijuana laws are subject to change. For the most current information, consult your countries official resources or legal counsel.
Law Enforcement
Don’t smoke in front of cops.
They aren’t too fussed if you behave.
Big busts for hydroponic growers.
and a recent update: “Since November 2007, Police in WA have a new weapon to combat the increasing number of stoners who drive. They have a DRUG BUS! yes, this bus will be at random locations near the city looking for party goers or those who even look like a toker to stop the vehicle and have them take a mouth/saliva swab on the side of the road. If you smoked within 4 hrs of driving, you are screwed! There is no tolerance for marajuana, ecstasy/mda or speed/ice. This swab test is designed to catch people under the influence of several of the major drugs.
In addition to this, Police in Perth and outer suburbs have come down very harshly and have managed to take down and dismantle a large number of the major ‘indoor’ growing operations and suppliers, leaving a gaping hole in the marijuana market thoughout most of Western Australia.
You won’t get busted for smoking a joint in a park, just don’t parade the stuff in public (if you’re lucky enough to score or have a contact) and of course, don’t drive after you have had even a small toke!!”
