Is Pink Cocaine / Tusi legal in Russia?

Legal status

Controlled whenever the product contains a listed narcotic or psychotropic substance. Pink cocaine is a street name and not a legal substance: the dossier resolves it through the Decree 681 entry «Смеси, содержащие хотя бы одно наркотическое средство или психотропное вещество» (in English, mixtures containing at least one narcotic drug or psychotropic substance), so each tested constituent controls the classification and the amount. The dossier names no usual constituent for this label, so none is named here. Decree 681 of 30 June 1998 sets the controlled lists and Decree 1002 of 1 October 2012 sets the amounts. The dossier read Decree 681 and Decree 1002 as amended up to Government Decree No. 880 of 11 June 2025, checked on 18 September 2026; a later government decree is not ruled out.

Consequences if caught

Capital exposure: none. The highest sentence the dossier records under articles 228 and 228.1 of the Criminal Code is life imprisonment, at article 228.1(5). Decree 1002 supplies no class-wide number for pink cocaine: the dossier says the identified constituent's significant, large and especially large bands apply. Personal possession without intent to sell below the significant amount is an administrative offence under KoAP article 6.8, and the dossier gives no fine figure for it. Above the significant amount article 228 of the Criminal Code applies, and the dossier's penalties section gives up to 3 years for a significant amount, 3 to 10 years for a large amount and 10 to 15 years for an especially large amount, with the additional sanctions stated in the article. Production, sale or transfer is criminal at any amount under article 228.1, where, as the dossier puts it, there is no minimum quantity gateway and quantity instead aggravates the sentence; the especially large limb, article 228.1(5), carries 15 to 20 years or life imprisonment, plus the optional fine and disqualification stated there. The record this cell rests on does not set out separate import, export, cultivation or consumption offences, so none is stated here.
