What psychedelic access is allowed in Colombia?

Personal dose decriminalized since 1994. Access depends on the substance and setting; this is not blanket permission to possess, buy or sell psychedelics.

Official source: Sentencia C-221 de 1994, Corte Constitucional de Colombia →

Colombia's Constitutional Court decriminalized possession of a personal dose of drugs including psilocybin in 1994. There is no licensed access program, but traditional yagé (ayahuasca) use by indigenous communities is culturally recognized.

Current law

In Sentencia C-221 of 1994, the Constitutional Court ruled that criminalizing possession of a personal dose violates the right to free development of personality. Decree 1844 of 2018 later set personal-dose thresholds. Traditional indigenous use of yagé (ayahuasca) is recognized and practiced openly, especially in the Putumayo and around Bogotá.

  • Carrying a small personal amount is not a crime, but selling or transporting larger quantities is prosecuted.
  • Ayahuasca (yagé) ceremonies are widely available and culturally established, but there is no government licensing or safety registry for facilitators.
  • No licensed psilocybin or MDMA therapy program exists; clinical access is limited to research settings.
