Cannabis becomes legal in June 2022 and with no vote in the Thai parliament , suddenly becomes officially re-criminalized in June of 2025 . Making all those that purchased it legally criminals over night. So with these new laws in place in (some locations) that were given three years at last report to change over to medical sales. My hunch is many legal users are more confused than ever as to what is currently legal today.

Hearing reports of foreigners being stopped by police at various train stations and in public and searched with dogs.

As always in my opinion the government has once again made a confusing mess instead of perhaps copying other places like Washington state in America. Somehow has made it a crime for a person to enjoy themselves in private like drinking a beer. You have to have medical issues now. It only took a few idiots thinking they could just walk onto a plane with a few pounds to ruin it for everyone.

ur 100% wrong, nothing changed in june 2025
BUT they are now doing checks of shops selling weed to make sure their license is good

zero change for online buying

Is it true about reports of foreigners being searched at train and bus stations or while just walking . Seems certain media outlets have a difficult time reporting fact from fiction. Certain officials seem unable to stop making up stories.

Why question pure hearsay? Where did you see it in writing? No changes at all at this time. Well except for those with paranoid tendancies.

The issue that caught my eye in the recent change is that "buying from an unlicensed vendor" carries the same potential penalty as smoking weed in public.

So USER is at fault not the shops ? Not the government for suddenly demanding you are NOT allowed to enjoy yourself but must be medicated and checked over first. But booze just walk on in find some hidden spot outside and let loose. Huge difference between idiots walking down main street shirt off smoking a number and sitting by yourself far from everyone in the forest or beach. God forbid!
