Politics and cannabis

Thailand legalized cannabis in 2022 and has since seen a boom in tourists coming to Thailand to enjoy cannabis. But new regulations could impact foreign visitors to the country.

Following up on our Amsterdam blog from April 2021 about the mayor’s plan to ban tourists from the famous Dutch coffeeshops, we come to share good and bad news. The excellent news is tourists are still and will remain to be welcome in the Dutch coffeeshops. Albeit that the city is still worried about too many tourists coming to the city. The only thing that can be considered bad news is that in a trade-off with the city council, the smoking of cannabis in the red light district will be banned from halfway May.

Cannabis tourism has never been more accessible. In 2025, more countries than ever allow recreational or tolerant use, private clubs, consumption lounges, and even guided farm tours. Whether you’re planning a weekend city break or a longer adventure, the map keeps expanding. This updated guide covers the current situation, practical tips, and the places that actually deliver the experience you’re looking for.

Since December 18 2021, Malta has become the first country in the European Union (EU) to legalize homegrown cannabis and sales through non-profit clubs. Excellent news of course which could prove to be the start to a green future in the EU. All the more reasons to delve into the details for a new iteration of Suzy’s Cannabis World Blog
