Legal Framework
Under the Law 19.172, Uruguay has established a regulated cannabis system that carefully balances individual freedom with community safety.

All club premises must be at least 150 meters from schools and 1,000 meters between club facilities from schools and youth centres, and clubs are cultivation and distribution points — not consumption lounges without exception.

Sales to minors, advertising in any form, and international transport are all criminal offences carrying severe penalties.
