Popular Post Wuvu2 Posted August 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2022 Seems a bit cruel that weed smokers can't bring their stash into Thailand on holiday. There is imported weed for sale in the dispensaries - has anyone heard about the process for bringing it in legally? 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebike Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Assume you are coming from a legal weed jurisdiction? Otherwise just no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't think aliens/non-immigrants can apply for the import license. I think the imported cannabis here is (mostly) from the U.S. and is illegally imported. Same-same for the vape cartridges and disposables. I wouldn't do it, even something like gummies. Just not worth the potential issues. You can check with your airline(s), and any countries you might transit on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of cruel things in this world. Not sure I'd include that on the list. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told importing any cannabis products into Thailand is illegal. Then I was told you can do it if you have a license but import licenses are hard to get and expensive. Thai people only.

Laphroaig27 Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 I'd guess if while on a tourist visa a person got busted with any amount of weed or even had it in their system they'd be up for some fines and lots of hassles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you would guess wrong. ???? Nobody is getting busted with any amount of weed. No roadside pee tests are being administered. This includes tourists. I hope this makes you feel better about using cannabis in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it was illegal (in the country of origin) to EXPORT it from the country of origin. And you need more than an Import License. You need approval from the Thai FDA and then there's the Customs Act of 2560 and the Plant Quarantine Act of 2507. There is a loophole for importing, for approved testing and research, although this process seems somewhat secretive. A powerful person got waylaid trying to pick up a 5 Kg consigment at Suvarnabhumi back in July; that was quickly swept under the carpet. https://newsbeezer.com/thailandeng/customs-have-notified-tom-krue-sophon-of-ordering-cannabis-flower-for-entry-into-the-country/ The sheer volume of imported cannabis, along with extracts, carts, disposables, distillates/shatter/budder, edibles is staggering. No clue how so many are getting this stuff into Thailand in such large quantities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You expect every person that has a cop hassle, shakedown to report it here? Maybe front page of BKK Post? Why don't you find some cops and fire up a spliff?

It is now an offence to cause annoyance by smoking mj in public, but possession is currently decriminalised and the cops have been told so. Though I'm not aware that anyone has been charged with the minor offence of causing an annoyance. Maybe you could test the water? Laphroaig is a bit peaty, Glenmorangie now we're talking.
