In Switzerland, the Art. 8a NarcA requires every Cannabis-Sozialclub to operate as a non-profit, capping membership at up to 5,000 participants per pilot trial per club and mandating regular financial audits. Individuals must be at least 18 years old to join, and dual membership in multiple clubs is typically prohibited. Dispensing limits are set at 10g THC equivalent per month daily and 10g total THC equivalent per month monthly per member.
