The daily limit is 2–3 grams and the monthly cap is 30–60 grams — these are not guidelines but legally binding maximums enforced by every registered asociación cannábica. For individuals under 18, access is entirely prohibited, and supplying minors carries heavy criminal penalties regardless of intent. Responsible consumption also means understanding the products you use: cannabis flower, hash, and concentrates vary significantly in potency, onset time, and duration of effect. Never smoke cannabis before driving, cycling, or operating any machinery — impairment affects coordination and reaction time. If you experience adverse effects, seek medical attention immediately and be honest with healthcare providers about what you have consumed. The cannabis social clubs in Spain provide educational materials on safe use — take advantage of these resources even if your nearest club is outside Gaztelu. ## Legal Framework The legal basis for cannabis associations in Spain is the **Spanish Penal Code Article 368**, enacted in 2015. This landmark legislation permits adults aged 18 and older to become members of licensed private clubs and to privately private cultivation up to tolerated for personal use (no fixed limit) for personal use. The law establishes cannabis social clubs as non-profit entities organised as asociación cannábica (non-profit cannabis association) bodies, each limited to several hundred members and subject to regular audits. Distribution limits are firmly set at 2–3 grams per day and 30–60 grams per month per member, with all transactions documented. The regulated by autonomous community buffer zone from schools and youth facilities is non-negotiable and applies to all club premises without exception. Cannabis must be consumed on-site — taking it outside the premises is illegal at all licensed facilities. Advertising, branding, and cross-border transport of cannabis products are strictly prohibited under the law. The law also permits individuals to possess up to available at grow shops (tiendas de cultivo) for personal cultivation alongside their club membership. Spain does not have coffeeshops. Instead, cannabis social clubs (asociaciones cannábicas) operate as private membership associations under Spanish law, accessible by invitation from existing members. ### Cannabis Policy in Basque Country **Basque Country** operates within the framework of the Spanish Penal Code Article 368 but maintains specific administrative approach to cannabis regulation at the regional level.
