Can you bring cannabis or CBD to Argentina?

Short answer
Prohibited

  • Cannabis

    prohibited

    Do not bring cannabis. Customs prohibits narcotics ('Estupefacientes') in baggage, and ANMAT lists cannabis, its resin, and cannabis extracts and tinctures as Lista I narcotics under Ley 17.818.

    Sources: the ARCA 'Objetos permitidos y prohibiciones' page, plus the ANMAT controlled-substances list (argentina.gob.ar/sites/default/files/estupefacientes_2016.pdf, linked from the ANMAT 'Listados' page): 'CANNABIS (Marihuana), su resina (Haschisch) y los extractos y tinturas de Cannabis — LISTA I. LEY 17818/68'. No official page read deals with CBD-only products for travellers. Because 'extractos y tinturas' are listed, treat CBD oils as prohibited unless ANMAT confirms otherwise. Argentina's medical-cannabis programme is for registered patients in Argentina and does not give foreign travellers an allowance.
