Pakistan

Cannabis laws in Pakistan follow Pakistan’s national law. For travelers, the jurisdiction’s law is the controlling standard—cities usually don’t define cannabis legality.

Cannabis is illegal for recreational and personal use. Provisions exist for controlled medical and industrial production, but no patient access program is established. Violations can result in severe penalties.

Practical guidance

Avoid cross-border transport of cannabis products. Do not assume informal tolerance equals legality.
