Is Pink Cocaine / Tusi legal in Belgium?

Legal status

Not applicable as a single status, and not because the decree is silent. Pink cocaine, sold as tusi, is a street label rather than a substance: the Belgian lists contain no entry named pink cocaine and no entry named tusi, and the powder has no fixed composition. Article 2(14) of the Royal Decree of 6 September 2017 reaches a preparation, defined as a solution or mixture in any physical state containing one or more substances, so the actual contents decide the result. The constituents commonly reported under the name are answered separately in this table: ketamine is a named entry in Annex IV limb B and MDMA is a named entry in Annex II limb A, and those rows, not this one, carry the schedule placements. The same name can produce different results from one sample to the next, and no single terminal status can honestly be stated for the label itself.

Consequences if caught

Capital exposure: none. Belgium's drug law carries no death penalty and no life sentence. The exposure here is real but it is inherited. Where a powder sold under this label contains a listed substance, article 2(14) reaches it as a preparation and article 61 of the decree routes the breach to article 2bis of the Law of 24 February 1921. Article 2bis §1 sets the ordinary band at three months to five years of imprisonment with a fine of EUR 1,000 to 100,000. Article 2bis §3 raises that to ten to fifteen years for its stated aggravations, including where use following the offence causes death. Article 2bis §4 carries the ceiling, fifteen to twenty years, where the offence concerns a child under twelve or participation as a leader in an association, so twenty years is the maximum imprisonment this statute exposes. Article 2bis §5 allows a further fine of EUR 1,000 to 100,000 in the §2 to §4 cases, which makes that fine available rather than automatic. The ladder that applies is the one attaching to what the sample actually contains, so two powders sold under the same name can sit at different points on it.

If prescribed or medical

The rule that applies to a traveller here is Belgium's own and it is one rule for the whole country: article 3(4)(4) of the Royal Decree of 6 September 2017. It is a document exception rather than a schedule, and it is not a prescribing right. It covers a medicine that was lawfully obtained, carried for the traveller's own personal use, and limited to no more than three months of treatment, and it expressly excludes the substances in Annex II limb A. There is no placement to attach, because the label is not a substance and has no schedule entry of its own. The placement that matters is the one belonging to whatever the material actually contains, and where that is a first limb Annex II substance the exception is excluded while for other placements it is not. No route specific to a street label was found in this dossier and none has been invented for it.

Documentation

Carry nothing on the strength of this name, because it identifies no substance and no document can vouch for a powder of unknown composition. The Belgian annexes were read on 18 September 2026 and contain no entry under this label or under tusi. The annex text read is the non official consolidated version published by the AFMPS; it is informative and the Moniteur belge controls. The annex consolidation relied on here is valid from 29 March 2026, following the amending Royal Decree published on 19 March 2026, and carries a correction dated 16 July 2026.

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