Information

In Cyprus, cannabis is a controlled drug under the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances, Law 1977 and the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances, Regulations 1979. The importation of cannabis containing even traces of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is therefore forbidden in all its forms.
