These possession limits do not permit sale, supply to others or cross-border transport. The current wording of §5(12) was checked on 7 October 2026. Act 167/1998, current official text.

The quantity bands
The government’s national drug report explains the personal-use limits and the separate criminal-offence thresholds. These figures concern the adult personal-use framework, not supply to others. Czech government: national drug report 2025.
| Location | Permitted within the applicable conditions | Administrative-offence band | Criminal-offence threshold |
|---|---|---|---|
| In one’s own dwelling | Up to 100 g | More than 100 g, up to 200 g | More than 200 g |
| Outside one’s own dwelling | Up to 25 g | More than 25 g, up to 50 g | More than 50 g |
The higher figures are not additional legal allowances. The statutory wording is “older than 21”; do not extend the personal-use exception to younger people. The meaning of one’s dwelling and the circumstances of possession also matter; a hotel booking or a shared address should not be treated as a complete legal assessment. Government report: legislative framework.
What the table does not authorise
Personal-use rules do not permit giving or selling cannabis to other people. Czech Police make that distinction explicitly in their March 2026 explanation. Czech Police: the personal-use exception.
Nor should a domestic quantity limit be treated as permission to travel internationally with cannabis. Even medical patients need to check destination and transit-country rules. SÚKL: travel restrictions.
