Is 2-FDCK legal in Spain?
- Legal status
- Controlled. 2-FDCK is listed as a psychotropic substance in Real Decreto 2829/1977. Possession for one's own consumption is not a criminal offence in Spain, and consuming or possessing in public is an administrative infraction.
- Consequences if caught
- The entry read from the cached list is '77 2-fluorodescloroketamina (2-FDCK; 2-(2-fluorofenil)-2-metilaminociclohexanona)'. Article 368 of the Código Penal punishes cultivation, preparation or trafficking, or otherwise promoting, favouring or facilitating the unlawful consumption of drugs, and possession only where it is for those purposes. Possession for one's own consumption is outside the article. Where article 368 does apply the penalty is three to six years and a fine of one to three times the value of the drug for substances causing grave harm to health, and one to three years and a fine of one to two times the value in the other cases, and which side a substance falls on is decided in the case rather than by a schedule. Consuming or possessing in a public place, way, public establishment or collective transport is a grave administrative infraction under article 36.16 of Ley Orgánica 4/2015 even where not intended for trafficking, and article 39 sets the fine at 601 to 30,000 euro. Planting and cultivation in places visible to the public is the same grade of infraction under article 36.18 where it is not a crime. This placement is stated as at the consolidated text of Real Decreto 2829/1977 read on 16 September 2026. A delegated list is amended often, which is why it is delegated, so the entry should be rechecked against the current consolidation before being relied on.
- If prescribed or medical
- Spain controls this substance through the psychotropics list, so any authorised medicinal form is a controlled medicine. Carry a prescribed medicine in its original packaging with the prescription. For Schengen travel see documentation.
- Documentation
- For a prescribed controlled medicine on Schengen travel, carry a Schengen certificate issued under article 75 of the Convention implementing the Schengen Agreement, together with the original packaging and the prescription.
