- Not confirmed — status not individually verified; confirm with Chile's authorities (Law 20.000) / your embassy
- Consequences if caught
- This specific substance was not named in the cited Chilean sources (Law 20.000; Decree 867/2007) — do NOT assume it is permitted; verify before travel. Under Law 20.000 Art 50, possession or consumption of a small quantity for exclusive and near-in-time personal use is NOT a crime — it is a misdemeanor/infraction (falta) punishable by a fine, drug-education, or community service, never prison. There is NO statutory gram threshold; a judge assesses 'personal use' case-by-case. Private personal use is permitted, but consumption in groups or public places is penalized (intent to supply is presumed unless personal use is proven). Cultivation (Art 8) is an offence unless justified as exclusive personal near-term use (the '6 plants' figure circulating is from reform BILLS, not current law). Micro-trafficking (Art 4) carries 541 days–5 years; trafficking (Art 3) 5–15 years. [contested] A 2025–26 reform tightening penalties and narrowing the personal-use defence is before the Constitutional Court (about 37 members appealed) — confirm the current status; the Art 50 framework above is the stable core.
- If prescribed / medical
- If a controlled medicine, carry the prescription and confirm with your embassy (see documentation).

Public or group consumption is penalized. Medical cannabis has been legal since 2015 (Supreme Decree 84; pharmacy, prescription). [contested] A 2025–26 reform tightening this is before the Constitutional Court — confirm the current status.

THC-P
- Legal status
- Not confirmed — status not individually verified; confirm with Chile's authorities (Law 20.000) / your embassy
- Consequences if caught
- This specific substance was not named in the cited Chilean sources (Law 20.000; Decree 867/2007) — do NOT assume it is permitted; verify before travel. Under Law 20.000 Art 50, possession or consumption of a small quantity for exclusive and near-in-time personal use is NOT a crime — it is a misdemeanor/infraction (falta) punishable by a fine, drug-education, or community service, never prison. There is NO statutory gram threshold; a judge assesses 'personal use' case-by-case. Private personal use is permitted, but consumption in groups or public places is penalized (intent to supply is presumed unless personal use is proven). Cultivation (Art 8) is an offence unless justified as exclusive personal near-term use (the '6 plants' figure circulating is from reform BILLS, not current law). Micro-trafficking (Art 4) carries 541 days–5 years; trafficking (Art 3) 5–15 years. [contested] A 2025–26 reform tightening penalties and narrowing the personal-use defence is before the Constitutional Court (about 37 members appealed) — confirm the current status; the Art 50 framework above is the stable core.
- If prescribed / medical
- If a controlled medicine, carry the prescription and confirm with your embassy (see documentation).
