This comprehensive legislation permits adults aged 18 and older to become members of licensed growing collectives and to privately autocultivo up to six plants per household, maximum 480g harvest per year for personal use. Under this framework, every club de membresía must be a non-profit non-profit civil association (asociación civil sin fines de lucro) with no more than 15 to 45 members per club members, and financial transparency is mandatory. Distribution limits are firmly set at 40 grams per month (no daily cap) per day and 40 grams per month per month per member, with all transactions documented. A mandatory 150 meters from schools and 1,000 meters between club facilities setback from educational institutions applies to all club premises, and violations result in immediate license revocation.

Advertising, branding, and cross-border transport of cannabis products are strictly prohibited under the law.
