Cannabis Foods In Greece: A Blurry Legal Framework

Under Greek law, unprocessed products gathered from the cultivation of the Cannabis Sativa L plant which contain tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) at a concentration of less than 0,2%, are not considered to be illegal narcotic drugs. It is noted that in accordance with the new EU Common Agricultural Policy for 2023, it has been announced that this THC concentration level is intended to be increased to 0,3%.

However, the above THC level only concerns the unprocessed product gathered from the Cannabis plant, and not final products intended for consumption. Therefore, it does not mean that Cannabis-derived foods and food supplements containing THC under 0,2% are per se legal under the Greek framework.
