Portugal, located in southwestern Europe, is known for its stunning coastline, rich history, and vibrant culture. With a population of approximately 10 million, the country is a popular destination for tourists drawn to its warm climate, historic architecture, and world-renowned cuisine. The capital city, Lisbon, and the northern city of Porto are hubs for culture and commerce. Portugal is recognized for its progressive drug policies, including decriminalization efforts that have garnered global attention. The country has a growing economy, with key sectors including tourism, agriculture, and renewable energy. Its scenic landscapes, from the Algarve to the Douro Valley, make Portugal a prime destination for relaxation and investment.
In Portugal, cannabis use for medical purposes was legalized in 2018, allowing the prescription of cannabis-based products for therapeutic conditions such as chronic pain, epilepsy, and multiple sclerosis. The cultivation, manufacture, and distribution of medical cannabis are strictly regulated by Infarmed, the Portuguese National Authority of Medicines and Health Products, ensuring compliance with national and EU standards. Recreational cannabis use, while still illegal, has been decriminalized since 2001 as part of Portugal’s progressive drug policy.
