Is LSD legal in Greece?

Legal status

Controlled narcotic under Law 4139/2013 — illegal; personal use a misdemeanour, trafficking a serious crime

Consequences if caught

Personal use or possession of a small quantity (judge-assessed — there has been no fixed gram threshold since 2013) is a misdemeanour carrying up to 5 months' imprisonment; there is no criminal record if not repeated within 5 years, and the sentence is suspended if the person is referred to treatment. Trafficking (Arts 20/22) carries 8–20 years plus a fine up to €300,000; aggravated cases (near schools/prisons, public officials, criminal organisation) a minimum of 10 years plus €50,000–500,000; causing serious harm or death 10 years to life plus €50,000–600,000; professional trafficking over €75,000 profit life plus up to €1M. An addict/group-sharing tier carries up to 3 years. Penalties do not vary by substance for personal use. LSD is a named controlled substance.

If prescribed or medical

Not a prescribed traveller medicine in this form; controlled medicines require a Schengen certificate plus documentation (see documentation).

Documentation

For Schengen travel carry a Schengen certificate for controlled medicines, plus the original container, the prescription label and a doctor's letter (the name must match your passport). Methadone/buprenorphine travellers should arrange this through OKANA (Athens/Thessaloniki) with an application and a medical certificate at least 1 month ahead (English/German/French accepted).

Drug laws and enforcement change and vary within a country. This is not legal advice. Always confirm with Greece’s embassy or official drug authority before traveling; penalties can be severe, including imprisonment.
