No, Delta 9 THC remains illegal in Greece under Law 4139/2013, which classifies cannabis-derived products with THC content exceeding 0.2% as narcotics. The Hellenic Police and the Ministry of Health enforce strict penalties, including fines and imprisonment, for possession, distribution, or cultivation. While medical cannabis was legalized in 2018 under controlled licensing, recreational Delta 9 THC products are explicitly excluded. The 2026 compliance framework under the National Drug Strategy tightens oversight, requiring import permits for CBD products with trace THC.
