Marijuana Laws & Legislation for Stavanger
As of 2025, cannabis remains illegal for recreational use in Norway, with possession, use, and distribution punishable under the Norwegian Penal Code and Medicines Act. While small amounts (up to 15 grams) typically result in fines, larger quantities or supply-related offenses can lead to imprisonment of up to two years, or even ten years for serious violations. Despite past efforts to decriminalize drug possession, including a failed 2021 bill, Norway has taken a harm-reduction approach by stating that drug addicts should not face criminal penalties for small personal-use amounts.
Medical cannabis is legal but highly restricted, with only a few approved cannabis-based medicines, such as Sativex and Epidyolex, available by prescription from Norwegian doctors. Non-approved cannabis medications with THC content below 1% may also be prescribed under strict regulations. CBD products are classified as medicine, meaning they require a prescription and must contain no more than 1% THC to be legal. While Norway remains strict on cannabis, ongoing debates on legalization, including proposals by political figures like Arild Hermstad, suggest the potential for future policy shifts.

From 100 to 150 is reasonable, if they want more they’re ripping you off.
