FAQ
Colombia: common questions
Is psychedelic therapy legal in Colombia?
There is no blanket permission for psychedelic therapy. Personal dose decriminalized since 1994. Exceptions, personal-use protections or reduced enforcement do not by themselves authorize treatment services.
What does the current law say?
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., 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.
What does that mean for me?
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.
