Germany · 2026
Since April 2024, adults may carry and grow some cannabis in Germany. But where and when you smoke still matters. This applies in Düsseldorf as in all of North Rhine-Westphalia.
From 18, in public. Above 30 g it is a criminal offence (up to 3 years).
Only where you live, locked away from children. Giving your harvest away is a crime.
No smoking in pedestrian zones from 7 am to 8 pm. Many Altstadt streets are pedestrian zones.
Never in sight of schools, playgrounds, youth centres or sports grounds, up to 100 m from the entrance. Never near minors.
Buying is only legal through licensed non-profit clubs. Selling or buying on the street is a crime.
Limit 3.5 ng/ml of THC: €500, a one-month ban and 2 points. Zero under 21 and on probation.
