On Friday, 22 February 2024, the German Bundestag, in a historic vote, positioned Germany as the first major European Union country to legalize the possession and purchase of small amounts for recreational cannabis use. The law, passed by a coalition of Social Democrats, Greens, and Free Democrats with a vote of 407-226 and four abstentions, was championed by Health Minister Karl Lauterbach as a strategy to combat the black market and overturn what he described as a failed cannabis prohibition policy.

The implementation of this legislation removes cannabis from both the narcotics and the official list of banned substances in Germany, introducing a new chapter for the nation's cannabis industry. This transformation substantially eases the prescription process for patients in need of cannabis-based treatments and for healthcare professionals aiming to prescribe such treatments, thereby enhancing patient care, and expanding treatment options within the field of medicinal cannabis.

Germany's decision to legalize cannabis stands as a guiding light for progressive reform in drug policy, illustrating the capacity to beneficially impact the cannabis market, reduce the influence of the illicit drug trade, and address the deficiencies of previous cannabis regulations. This legislative change is set to unlock new opportunities for innovation and growth within the sector, highlighting the importance of adaptable and forward-thinking approaches to cannabis regulation.

First and second pillar

The next phase for the decriminalization legislation involves its review by the Bundesrat, which consists of representatives from Germany's regional states. Should the Bundesrat raise no objections, the initial segment of the legislation, aimed at legalizing cannabis possession, is slated for enactment on April 1.

This legislation represents the first phase of a broader strategy to fully legalize marijuana within the country, described as the "first pillar." Following the passage of the decriminalization bill, the plan's "second pillar" will initiate, proposing the establishment of municipal five-year pilot programs. These programs are designed to facilitate the sale of state-regulated cannabis through licensed retail stores and distributors, marking a significant step towards the comprehensive legalization and regulation of cannabis in Germany.
