Retiring in Thailand? Here’s the Most Useful Guide Ever Compiled

If you're planning on retiring in Thailand, there's a bunch of things you need to consider, some of which you probably haven't yet thought of.

And that's the purpose of this post; a checklist of sorts to make sure you have everything covered.

First we will look at where to live and the pros and cons of city vs. island vs. upcountry life. Then we will cover financial considerations, healthcare, driving, learning Thai, and more.

I'm sure you'll have a question or two pertaining to your personal circumstances, so feel free to drop that in the comments section at the end of the post and I'll be happy to answer it for you.

Most people who retire in Thailand have some idea of where they want to live, be that a place they've holidayed before, near friends, or living with a Thai partner. However, if you don't have ties to a particular area but have a couple of places in mind, I encourage you to visit and spend some time there before making a final decision.

Think about what you want from life. If you're 50, you might still want to be out three nights a week enjoying bars and late nights. If you're 70, you might really appreciate peace and quiet and early nights.

Location is everything. If you can't tolerate noise then certainly don't live in a tourist hotspot where there is likely to be a lot of loud music, foot traffic and road noise at all hours. And if you're easily bored, forget about sleepy country towns.

Think about whether you want to be by the beach, in a city location or a rural area. Let's explore those three options.
The Rural Life

Some retirees don't have much of a choice in where they live as their better half already has a forever home in Nakhon Nowhere. Of course it makes sense to live near family, but this isn't always ideal for the foreign national in the equation.

In this case, it might make sense for you to live in a location closer to a bigger town, or a couple of hours away by the beach.

The thing is, the quiet life is great for a while, but socializing is an important aspect of health as we grow older.

You don't want to be so isolated that you seldom talk to anyone. And if you don't speak Thai, you will feel like an outsider among the only people you get to interact with on a daily basis.

This is the problem with rural towns and villages: There may not be another foreign national from your home country for a few miles and, with all the locals speaking Thai, you'll only have your thoughts for company.

A lot of people will say, “I like the quiet life and being on my own”.

Yes, so do I, but I'd think carefully about being too isolated, as loneliness can lead to depression and negatively impact health. Having people to interact with, and having the odd conversation each day, contributes a lot to your mental wellbeing.

Moreover, it puts a lot of pressure on your relationship if your partner is the only person you have for company. You will be reliant on her/him for everything, yet she/he will likely be busy with family a lot of the time.

Having a few friends, someone to have a coffee or a beer with, to play golf with, to chew the fat on western politics with, is important.

Of course, if you're still very active and mobile you can always take regular breaks away from a small town/village and visit the beach or a big city. That said, traveling becomes an increasing hassle and inconvenience as you get older: Long drives, train rides, airport lounges, it's an effort. It's far better to have what you need on your doorstep.

Another challenge of rural living is getting around. Even if you live in a village a couple of kilometers outside of the main town, you will still need a car to get your shopping and make necessary trips.Are you still comfortable driving?
Can you afford a car? (They are pricey in Thailand)
Does your wife/husband drive?
Do you want to be reliant on others for transport?

There is always the option of a motorbike – a small 100cc bike – but do you want to be riding one of those at 65?

Village life isn't as isolated as it was 20 or even 10 years ago. Most villages have a small convenience store, and many have a 7-Eleven and a Tesco within walking distance; it really depends on how pedestrianized the location is.
The Island Life

Living by the sea is good for your health, and what better way to spend retirement than sitting on a sandy beach and looking out over the ocean.

The challenge, however, is finding reasonably priced accommodation in a beach location, and one that meets your needs in terms of noise pollution and local amenities.

One plus point is that unlike central city living, you can find a house to rent or buy rather than having to rent an apartment. Some people won't mind an apartment, and to be fair if you've lived in Thailand for a while you get used to condo living.

But for me personally, the older I get the less appealing an apartment is. You have to pay a big premium to get something spacious in a good location, you have to put up with the noise of neighbors, and if there are two of you it gets a bit claustrophobic.

A motorbike really is essential for getting around an island, and the further you stay from the main town the more likely you are to need transport. That said, if you have the budget to take a taxi whenever you want (taxis are more expensive on islands) then it's a good option in my opinion.

It's not a huge expense though. Let's say you are living in Bophut, Koh Samui, and you took a taxi to Tesco or Big C (there and back) once a week for your shopping, that would only cost you about 400 Baht (about $12).

Koh Samui is a good option for retirement in my opinion. Some say it is too built up now, and in places, compared to 25 years ago that's true. But it still has lots of beauty and charm. The island isn't that big either, so getting around, even by taxi, is easy, and there are a number of beach locations that are away from the crowds.

There are lots of expats there, too, so it's easy to make friends. There are always lots of markets and events going on. And they have lots of good hospital options.

Some areas of Phuket are worth considering too:Rawai is for the quiet life.
Kamala is similar to Rawai but for those with a little extra budget.
Laguna is great for those who like golf.
Patong works for those who still crave the bar scene.

Phuket is a lot bigger than Samui and has less of that island vibe. The towns of Samui are closer together, making it easier to explore. That said, one advantage Phuket has is that some countries fly direct to Phuket airport, whereas Samui always requires a transfer from Bangkok.

This is a big consideration, as long-haul flights can really take it out of you as get older.

Hua Hin is an option too, though the beaches aren't very good and it's quite spread out, making the need for a car much greater. When compared with Phuket and Samui, Hua Hin is much sleepier and feels a tad boring, in my opinion.

And then there's Pattaya, which is somewhat city-like but with a beach to boot, and the red light district, of course.

I'm not really a fan of the area, but it is well located in terms of its proximity to Bangkok and the airports. It has a big retirement community, too. Jomtien, 3 kms down the road, is a more picturesque option.
The City Life

The obvious city to retire to in Thailand is the Big Mango, Bangkok.

Close to the main airports, cheap transportation around the city, restaurants, bars, massage shops and 7-Eleven's on every corner, lots of people to interact with, plenty of expats to meet, Bangkok is super convenient.

The downsides are lots of traffic, heavy pollution, super humid weather, and you will most likely need to live in an apartment because there are fewer options to rent a house in the inner city. Bangkok isn't exactly picturesque, either, and this concrete jungle can wear you down at times.

One thing I love about Bangkok is that there's always something going on. It's hard to feel lonely because life is everywhere, 24/7.

If you're active, you will never get bored exploring the city and its history, and when you're out and about you're interacting with people all the time, who are just as interested in you as you are in them.

It must be said that one thing Bangkok isn't is disability friendly. If you use a wheelchair, part or full time, or walk with a stick and struggle on busy sidewalks and awkward pavements, it probably isn't the city for you.

One might consider Chiang Mai instead of Bangkok; a much smaller city, and one steeped in nature and rich in culture and historical sites.

The main differences between the two are size and how busy Bangkok is. Bangkok is easier to get around, though, unless you are happy to ride a moped, which is essential in Chiang Mai.
Retirement Visa

I've written about the retirement visa extensively, so I won't go into too much detail here. Basically, you have two options:Get a 90-day single entry Non Immigrant O Visa from your local Thai embassy. Enter the country on this visa. Once in Thailand, open a Thai bank account and deposit 800,000 Baht. Once this money has been in the account for 60 days you can apply for a 1-year extension of stay based on retirement at a local immigration office. You will have to report to immigration every 90 days. This is called 90-day reporting. It can be done online, too. You must be 50 years old to apply for the extension of stay based on retirement. More on the Non O Visa retirement route here.
The other option is to get an O-A visa. This is obtained in your home country at a Thai embassy, and gives you a 1-year stay upon entry to Thailand. It sounds easier than option 1, but it comes with a number of hassles, including having to do a police check (criminal record, etc), and having to buy mandatory health insurance. More on the O-A visa route here.

The easiest way is to follow option 1.

Please note that though we refer to it as such, there is no such thing as a retirement visa, only these two options aimed at retirees: An extension based on retirement, obtained through a Non O Visa, and the O-A Visa, obtained in your home country.
Buying or Building a House

Depending on your financial situation, you might want to buy a property in Thailand.

Before you do, I'd urge you to consider that rent is cheap here and may be the better option. In most cases, renting for 20 years+ will cost you way less than buying a place.

Renting also gives you the freedom to up and move location, or to return back home without the hassle of selling a place or renting it out through agents.

There's an old adage for happiness in Thailand (among expats) that says, “Rent everything and own nothing”.

Bear in mind that a foreigner can't own land in Thailand, unless it's part of a business set-up, which is a little complicated and not available to those who don't have the correct company setup in place.

So if you “buy land” with your partner, he/she will own it; you'll just be fronting the cash, and paying for the house build.

You can lease land, as described here, and you can buy a house on land with a lease. There are also some luxury, so called “branded properties”, that offer a freehold arrangement. These developments circumvent the law using a loophole, as described in my detailed article on ownership, linked below.

Buying a condominium is the easiest way to own property in Thailand. You can own one outright and leave in your Will without the worry of a lease.
Working / Starting a Business

You are not permitted to work on a retirement visa. It's a strict rule and one that you should never break, as doing so will risk deportation.

If you do find a job, or want to start a business, then you will be required to change your visa status.

Starting a business isn't as easy as you would might think, though as detailed in this starting a business article.
Health Insurance

Expats and foreigners are not able to access healthcare in Thailand via the country's universal health program, unless they have worked in Thailand previously and have a social security card.

You may already have a health insurance policy in your home country, so you'll need to check if that will cover you internationally when living in Thailand.

If you haven't got a policy, then you have the option of taking out a local policy, which will cover you in Thailand, or an international policy, which will cover you when traveling abroad or visiting back home.

A domestic policy is obviously cheaper, as it only covers local healthcare.

If you are over 75, and/or you have a serious health condition, you may not be able to get health insurance. Either that or the policy premium will be way too expensive. In this case you should consider putting money away each month to cover any potential illness.

Healthcare is much cheaper in Thailand than in the west, and if you've got a pretty pension and a stack of savings you might be if the advantageous position of not having to worry about hospital care fees, should something unfortunate happen to your health.

Life Insurance

Something else you might need to sort out is life insurance. If you have an existing policy you will need to check with your policy provider that it can be transferred to Thailand.

If you're getting married or cohabiting with a partner in Thailand, then you may want to consider paying a monthly life insurance premium to ensure your partner is financially secure when you pass.

Quite often it is the case that the foreign national in the relationship is 10 or even 20+ years older than his partner, and therefore likely to die first. It is therefore prudent to make plans for her/his life without you.

Because you are moving country, there may be other financial investments and considerations that you need advice on, too. For life insurance and financial planning, you can speak with my Thailand-based IFA.

Opening a Bank Account

There are plenty of options for expats when it comes to banking. You will be able to get a basic checking account with a debit card and online banking.

Bangkok Bank and Kasikorn Bank are typically the most foreigner friendly banks, and Bangkok Bank works very well with Wise, which we will discuss next.

Open a bank account as soon as you can, as it makes life a lot easier. You will also need to deposit the 800,000 Baht in a Thai bank for a minimum of 60 days before you can do your 1-year extension of stay (based on retirement) at an immigration office.
Sending Money to Thailand

You will no doubt have to transfer money into Thailand on a regular basis, be it for spending, rent, or big purchases like a car or property.

The cheapest way to do this is through Wise. Basically, you send money to Wise from your home bank account and Wise then sends the money to your Thai bank account.

The advantage is that you avoid sending and receiving fees, and you get the mid-market exchange rate, as opposed to the rip-off rate given by banks. All you pay is a small handling fee to Wise.

+ Read more about Wise here.
Driving License

Don't forget to bring your driving license with you. You won't be able to hire or buy a car or motorbike without one.

If you are retiring in Thailand, then you will need to apply for a license. This involves taking a number of tests.

If you already have a driving license from back home, then you will need to do the following when applying for your Thai license:A short eyesight test (color perception, peripheral vision, depth perception)
A reflex examination
A computer based test (available in Thai & English language only) on the rules of driving

If you don't have an existing license from your home country, then you will need to take the Thai driving test too.
Learning Thai

Socially speaking, it pays to learn Thai, so you can converse with taxi drivers, shop keepers, and those in a position of authority.

Speaking Thai can also save you money, as your bartering skills will be that much better.

It makes sense though, right? If you live in a country you should be able to speak the language. It's a no-brainer.

I know, at 50+ it's not easy to learn a new language, let alone one with a different alphabet. The good news, however, is that Thai isn't hard to learn. In fact, you will be surprised just how quickly you pick words up and how soon you are able to form basic sentences.

A great place to start is Thaipod101 – online learning software designed to help you learn Thai fast. It's free to get started.

Retirement / Care Homes

It's a bit gloomy to think about our final years of life, but being in the last couple of laps, so to speak, means your health can take a sudden turn for the worse.

What will your plan be if you suddenly become immobile, develop dementia, or need round-the-clock care for a serious illness?

Some maybe lucky enough to have a partner who is willing to become a carer, but even that might not be viable after a period of time. The good news is that there are care homes in Thailand that cater for expats. All the most popular areas of the country have options.

I have written about these retirement homes here.
Making a Will

Most expats gloss over the need for a Will because their investments are mostly back home. However, having just a few assets in Thailand makes a Thai Will necessary.

For example, if you're on a retirement extension, you have 800k Baht wrapped up in a Thai bank account. You will no doubt have another account for withdrawals. You may end up buying a car or a motorbike, too, and you will have possessions in your home.

Dying without a Will makes it problematic for your family to access your estate, and the Thai legal system isn't easy to navigate.

A Will that clearly outlines your intentions for the property you leave in Thailand will make the process smooth, and negate the need for family members to spend money on lawyer and court fees to prove their right to your estate.

You can read more on making a Will in Thailand here.
In Summary

As you can see, there's a lot to think about when considering retirement in Thailand, so I hope this guide helps make your planning easier.

Hopefully you can use this as a checklist to make sure you have all the bases covered.

This guide could easily have been 15,000 words+, but rather than provide every detail here I have tried to make the sections concise and provide enough of an overview for you to get a good understanding. And then, where further information might be useful, I have linked to a dedicated article elsewhere on the site that provides comprehensive information and all the finer details.

I will update this guide periodically if I think of anything else you might need to add to your retirement checklist, but in the meantime please feel free to ask questions below. And if you know someone else who is considering retiring here, please forward them this guide so they can benefit from the information too.

CANNABIS CLINICS IN THAILAND

Pattaya Cannabis Clinics and Marijuana Dispensaries

First, you can get cannabis only for treatment, it is prohibited to use marijuana to seek pleasure. Second, your eligibility depends upon the extent you fulfill the requirements stipulated in the formal cannabis acquisition process. Third, even if you are entitled to consume cannabis under the Thai government’s laws, any possession or consumption of illegal cannabis may leave you to end up in jail or face a financial penalty. To get pass the medical cannabis eligibility requirements, your medical condition needs to fall in a list of approved medical conditions. All patients suffering from medical conditions listed in the approved medical conditions such as cancer, migraine etc., can seek medical marijuana to treat their symptoms. All the patients who fulfill the first condition need to see a qualified physician. The physician would certify their medical condition and prescribe medical marijuana for the treatment of their symptoms. Having a doctor’s certificate, patients need to visit one of the designated clinics located in Pattaya. The cannabis clinic is the final step in this heavily regulated cannabis acquisition process. Currently, there is only one cannabis clinic which dispenses medical cannabis to meet the needs of patients looking to use cannabis as remedy against their health conditions. The location and contact details of the Origene Clinic Pattaya is listed below. Origene Clinic Pattaya, 8/114 Moo 6 Sukhumvit Road, Muang Pattaya, Amphoe Bang Lamung, Tel: 0659989449, Email: info@orgeneclinic.com Knowledge of the local cannabis laws For smooth, safe, and stress-free cannabis consumption, marijuana enthusiasts need to be aware of local laws governing the use of the plant. Given the harsh anti-drug past, the Thai government regulates medical marijuana consumption to avoid any potential misuse. The basic premise that shapes the outlook of marijuana consumption laws stems from the government’s conviction; cannabis is a just medical remedy, not a substance to seek pleasure. Moreover, the laws reflect the intent and desire of the regulators whereby they want eligible people to only use cannabis available through legal channels. Reflecting authorities’ strong regulatory intent, new Narcotics Bill stipulates any consumption in violation of the provisions of this law may result in a one-year jail term or a financial penalty of 20,000 baht (USD$ 600). Tourists visiting Pattaya Any of the tourists visiting Pattaya also require complying with the provisions of Narcotics Bill. They can have marijuana only in the form approved by the Ministry of Health. Any violation may see their stashes are being confiscated. Upon arrival into the country, foreigners are advised to get their cannabis approved following FDA set procedure. Tourists just like Thai nationals are required to show their medical certificates. Therefore, officials suggest tourists should carry their medical certificates with them and show them to the customs officers upon their arrival in the country. Any departure from the laws of the land regarding cannabis possession or consumption may lead foreigners to face fines and persecutions. The fact that Thailand is the first far east nation to legalize the cannabis should not send you under the illusion that cannabis possession and consumption in the country is a matter of personal choice. Cannabis legalization is heavily regulated in the country. In the best interest of foreigners visiting the Pattaya, they should ensure they are duly following the laws governing the acquisition and usage of cannabis. Medical Cannabis Now Available at Pattaya Clinic for Foreign Residents Cover-Cannabis-Oil.jpg Medical Cannabis is now available to all patients residing in the Kingdom of Thailand. Origene Clinic based in Pattaya, is the Official Center of Medical Marijuana in Eastern Thailand; managing five provinces along the eastern seaboard: Chonburi, Chachoengsao, Rayong, Chanthaburi, and Trat.

Approved by the Thai FDA GPO Cannabis Oil is formulated according to international standards, approved by the Thai FDA, and distributed only by licensed medical marijuana centers like Origene Clinic in Pattaya, Thailand. Marijuana is a controlled narcotic in Thailand and prescribed as an alternative medicine. Patients who wish to try Medical Cannabis should register with Medical History that reflects qualification: Clinical Diagnosis Summary, Official Prescriptions, Medical Certificates, X-Ray/Scan Results, etc.

CBD Cannabis Oil in Thailand

Cannabis oil in Thailand What is Thai Cannabis oil? The cannabis plant contains over 100 natural compounds called cannabinoids. These compounds are responsible for the different properties including the medicinal benefits of the marijuana plant. Of these cannabinoids two most popular are cannabidiol and Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol. Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol popularly known as THC has psychoactive properties and causes high head sensations. While cannabidiol also is known as CBD has anti-inflammatory properties and is used to address several health-related symptoms. Since CBD is extracted from the cannabis plant in the form of oil therefore, is also referred to as cannabis oil in Thailand. Cannabis oil buzz The growing awareness of the medicinal properties of cannabis oil has made it a buzzy wellness product. In countries where CBD is legalized to treat various health conditions cannabis the industry is flourishing. You may come across coffee shops selling CBD lattes, spas offering CBD massage, and cosmetics companies introducing CBD based wellness products. With growing popularity, CBD has become an essential part of the wellness landscape in cannabis legal countries. Several articles in the mainstream media on CBD and its benefits reflect the increasing interest of people to know about this natural compound. Since new countries are joining the list where medical cannabis is legal, the curious minds want to know what CBD is, how it is extracted, and how it interacts with the body. In Thailand where recent decriminalization of medical marijuana has sparked public interest in the properties of CBD oil. The answers to the above questions can help people understand better about cannabis oil allowing them to make informed consumption decisions. How cannabis oil is extracted in Thailand? The cannabis plant is believed to contain up to 40% of CBD. It is acquired from the plant using different extraction methods. Most often, carbon dioxide is used as a solvent to extract CBD from the plant matter. By applying a combination of high pressure and low temperature, the maximum quantity of CBD can be extracted from the plant. Medical benefits of cannabis oil The recent legislation in Thailand allows patients to consume medical marijuana for a list of approved health conditions. However, there are several people who want to know if there is any scientific evidence to support frequent claims of cannabis health benefits. The research on the medicinal effects of cannabis is still in preliminary stages. The initial evidence validates several of the anecdotal claims of medical benefits of cannabis. The emerging scientific research outcome suggests cannabis oil is effective to treat a multitude of mental health conditions such as anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), addiction, and schizophrenia. The growing scientific evidence also sheds light on cannabis oil’s potential to heal a number of physical health conditions. For instance, a study conducted on rats concluded that CBD can effectively help to address the arthritis pain. Another study validates cannabidiol’s healing potential to deliver therapeutic relief to human skin issues such as acne vulgaris. Investigating the effects of CBD on human sebaceous gland function, the research found that cannabidiol is a highly effective sebostatic agent. It is generally believed the therapeutic properties of cannabis oil comes from CBD’s anti-inflammatory character. A number of studies suggest that a combination of lipostatic, antiproliferative, and anti-inflammatory effects of CBD serve as a therapeutic agent to address the issue of acne vulgaris. Another CBD research stream exploring complex childhood epilepsy disorder investigated the effects of CBD on this disorder with drug-resistant seizures causing high mortality rates. The findings showed a reduction in the total number of convulsive seizures when cannabidiol was administered. Overall CBD proved more effective in controlling seizures than placebo. In Thailand, cancer makes the list of approved condition for which patients can seek and use medical cannabis. Despite popular anecdotal accounts of cannabis cancer healing properties, there is little research to investigate anti-cancer properties of CBD. The preliminary scientific evidence, however, started emerging to show that CBD possesses anti-cancer properties. In addition, CBD also helps to manage the cancer treatment-related severe side-effects. How does cannabis oil interact with the body? In order to clearly understand the body CBD interaction, it is important to comprehend the endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS regulates important body functions such as sleep, mood, appetite, bowel movements, and more. By maintaining a biological harmony, the ECS plays an important role in the body’s response to environmental conditions such as mental and physical stress. Initially, ECS receptors are thought to be present in the brain and nerves only but later research shows that endocannabinoid system receptors are found across the entire body. They regulate a number of critical body functions such as pain, memory, mood, appetite, sleep, stress, metabolism, immune system, and reproduction system. Being the most versatile and widespread molecules in the human body, their right balance plays an important role in human health and happiness. Components of ECS The endocannabinoid system consists of three components namely receptors, enzymes, and endocannabinoids. It is important to note these ECS components are present in the body and their function does not depend upon the CBD. It means ECS components keep operating even when one does not consume CBD. The ECS receptors are of two types: CB1 and CB2, and their job is to keep endocannabinoid intact. The enzymes make the second component of the ECS and they come in different forms but only two forms have the ability to breakdown the endocannabinoids. Being a part of the central nervous system, CB1 receptors play an active role in the regulation of coordination, movement, pain, appetite, memory, mood, and other functions. While CB2 receptors are part of the peripheral nervous system and are associated with pain and inflammation regulation. When enzymes breakdown endocannabinoids, these components try to bind with receptors. The CBD leaves its effect on the body by helping these components to bind with the receptors. At the moment, there is no information to explain how CBD helps components of ECS to bind with the receptors. The researchers believe that CBD activates the receptors which in turn provide composure to the broken endocannabinoids. This CBD receptors interaction result in several health benefits for the human body. The effect of CBD goes beyond endocannabinoids and influences non-endocannabinoids such as cannabidiol modulate a non-endocannabinoid receptor called 5 ht serotonin receptor. The role of this receptor is critical in controlling psychotic disorders. The scientific evidence shows that CBD reduces chronic pain by affecting endocannabinoid receptor interaction. A study involving rats found that CBD can effectively reduce the pain response to surgical procedures. Another scientific study found that Oral CBD administration significantly relieved sciatic never pain and inflammation in rats. Where to find cannabis oil in Thailand? In this far east country, cannabis is neither for everyone nor it is available everywhere. To get your hands on the legal CBD oil, you need to qualify two conditions. First, patients with approved ailments are entitled to apply for cannabis oil. Second, such patients need to get a medical certificate from a registered medical practitioner. The patients with a medical certificate can go to any of the cannabis clinics or authorized public hospitals. Under the new law, the consumption of marijuana is only permitted for medical purposes. The recreational use of the drug is still illegal and can be subject to fine and jail sentence. The Thai government is aspiring to become a regional hub for medical cannabis. As well as, the officials are trying to attract more and more tourists to the country. If you are a foreigner and visiting the country, you can bring your stash with you. For the purpose, all tourists need to follow a set procedure. All foreigners with a valid medical certificate showing they suffer from an approved medical condition can purchase cannabis oil from designated clinics and hospitals. Final thoughts Cannabis oil is believed to possess useful medical properties that help address several ailments. The scientific evidence validates several of cannabis anecdotal benefits. However more research is required to truly understand the medical benefits of cannabis oil. The consumption of cannabis oil in Thailand is subjected to heavy regulation. Therefore, knowledge of related laws is very essential before making any consumption decision. Any violation of medical cannabis law can invite serious consequences in the form of fine and jail term.

Cannabis Legislature Summarised

A breakdown of Thailand’s cannabis legislature would be the following: CBD or “hemp” based cannabis products are completely legal in Thailand. Marijuana can be homegrown if approved by the Thailand government. Approved homegrown cannabis is created with medical intent.

Marijuana with THC content of 0.2% or more must be used only for medical purposes and registered with the Thailand Food and Drug Administration. Individuals must receive a medical prescription for marijuana from a physician. They can go to approved government hospitals or cannabis clinics to do so.
If one is caught using a marijuana product with 0.2% THC content or higher for recreational use, he or she can be sent to jail for an extended period and may have to pay high fines.

Cannabis being officially decriminalised, in essence, means components of the plant including the bud and seeds can now be legally used for medical or science-related reasons. Decriminalisation is not a pass for one to go smoke marijuana for recreation. This is still a serious offense in the country of Thailand.
Is marijuana legal in Thailand 2022?

Yes, starting Thursday marijuana is legal in Thailand. In the past, asking if weed was legal in Thailand would have raised eyebrows. However, Thailand has recently changed its tune and the answer is not as straightforward as it once was.

On January 25th, 2022, cannabis lovers rejoiced as Thailand became the first country in the Asian region to decriminalize the plant. This is quite the contrast to other Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia and Singapore, where possessing large amounts of marijuana can lead to the death penalty. According to the latest announcement, the Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) will remain in control over extracts that contain over 0.2% by weight of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). THC is the psychoactive ingredient that causes people who use marijuana to get high.

The latest rules and regulations for smoking weed legally in Thailand

Given that marijuana will no longer be illegal in Thailand starting June 9th, 2022, health authorities have urged the public to smoke on private property. Otherwise, they could get arrested for causing an “odor-based nuisance.”

The Department of Health sent orders to related agencies about the “inappropriate use” of cannabis and a warning that it could lead to arrests and will be charged for causing public nuisance under health laws. People who indulge in smoking cannabis can also face arrest if a nuisance case is filed against them. After the first warning, repeat violations will be fined THB ฿2,000 and a month in jail.

There is no limit on the potency of cannabis. However, creating secondary products such as hashish or oils with a potency of over 0.2% will be condemned. The parliament is yet to pass a bill that would forbid creating any such secondary substances.
The future of marijuana in Thailand

Decrimilazing weed would free smokers from legal anxiety; prisoners would be granted amnesty and released after June 9th. Note that drug convictions count for a large share of Thailand’s overcrowded jails. We will have to wait and watch how the new act will help the country in the long term, but for now, people in the Land of Smiles are waiting for the big day with a big smile and, obviously, a lighter!
What the delisting of cannabis means

Some people wonder what delisting marijuana means if it cannot be smoked recreationally. Essentially, the delisting of cannabis from the Narcotics Act allows for the plant to be more widely used for medical and scientific purposes. It permits the use of cannabis in medical and various health-related products as well.

Cannabis is an ingredient that has been prevalent in Thai traditional medicine for centuries. Until the 1930s, medical marijuana was legal and used to relieve pain and help with fatigue. Just two years ago in 2020, Thailand became the first country in Asia to decriminalize marijuana production and use it for medical purposes.

Even though smoking recreationally was not possible, growing marijuana at home is another story. Thai people can grow weed at home, but it has to be for personal use only (and therefore in small amounts). Those who are interested in growing on their own must first register with the authorities. It is worth noting that it remains a grey area as certain regulations and laws still apply

THAILAND WEEDMAPS STRAINS

Choosing which strains of weed to try from the limitless varieties without contemplating the kinds of pot that could potentially be growing on other planets is enough to make some green cannabis consumers anxious or excited.

It’s even quite common for really serious stoners to get a little depressed when they contemplate how no one will ever be able to smoke every single strain of wonderful weed in the universe.

We cross-referenced data from Leafly, Weedmaps, Hightimes, Complex, and Weed Horn to bring you the ultimate list of our 53 favorite mouth-watering strains of marijuana. We hope that our guide will help make your quest to find your favorite strains of cannabis a little easier.

The 53 Best Weed Strains

We’re not ranking these according to any scale, so they’re in no particular order. Enjoy!

53: Dutch Cheese

Dutch Cheese is a little bit of a mystery in the cannabis community. Why? Because only one of its parents are known (Euforia). That makes Dutch Cheese one bastard of a strain. Sorry, Dutchy.

But don’t let its parental heritage dissuade you. Dutch Cheese is a cerebral high that will leave you feeling uplifted and euphoric. All of that wrapped in a sweet, fruit-flavored package that is sure to please.

52: Chernobyl

We love this strain because it smells like teen spirit. Just kidding. It’s even better than that — it smells like lime sherbet!

Chernobyl is a mix of Trainwreck, Trinity, and Jack The Ripper. Contrary to its “powerful” and “scary” name, Chernobyl is more about floating away on a happy, relaxed cloud than it is about watching the walls have a meltdown. That makes Chernobyl great for relieving stress and bad moods.

51: Chem Dog

Chem Dog can trace its roots back to the well-known strains Kush, Hash Plant, and Northern Lights. It offers very pungent, earthy diesel flavors and results in a relaxed, euphoric high with tinges of creativity floating on the periphery.

But like many of the strains on this list, Chem Dog should be approached with the caution it deserves. THC levels top out at 15-20% so it can kick you where it counts in no time flat and take you deep inside your head (for good or bad) on a very cerebral trip.

50: Death Star

To paraphrase a classic line, “That’s no moon. It’s a ganja strain!” Death Star shares its sativa and indica effects with its parents Sensi Star and Sour Diesel and offers a truly unique experience.

Though sometimes slow to take over, Death Star never fails to zap your cares and will transport you to a state of relaxed euphoria like none other. Like its parent strain, Sour Diesel, Death Star produces flavors akin to the pungent, earthy diesel we’ve all come to know and love.

The thick frosty leaves of the Death Star strain smoke very smooth and slow while, at the same time, delivering a heady indica punch for those who want to get stuck on their couch for a few hours.

49: Ghost Train Haze

Bred from parents Ghost OG and Nevil’s Wreck, this strain measures in at 25% THC content and can serve as your express train to good times. Contrary to its name, Ghost Train Haze has a tendency to stimulate focus and creativity so you won’t be walking around in a daze (or haze)

Ghost Train Haze won’t scare you silly but it will knock your socks off with flavors reminiscent of sweet, earthy citrus. Delicious! All aboard the Ghost Train Haze express.

48: Red Dragon

Another potent strain that specializes in a heady sense of happiness, euphoria, and the seemingly-at-odds relaxation and excitement. That’s a mystical combination with an appropriately mystical name.

Legend has it that this strain got its name from the vivid red hairs that adorn the mature buds and give them a dragon-like appearance. I don’t know about all that but this is certainly an excellently powerful strain that will fly you to places you’ve never even imagined.

Do you have what it takes to tame the Red Dragon? Regardless, it will be one hell of a ride!

47: Yoda OG

Yoda OG is one of the best-matched marijuana strains for a quality couch lock session. It’s combined mental and body indica buzz will soothe your senses as your mind unwinds and your body melts between the cushions.

Any chronic pain or emotional stress will disappear in a pungent puff the moment you light up, making this the cannabis companion of choice for both recreational and medical marijuana users.

46: ChemDawg

Source: AllBud.com

Chemdawg can trace its roots (again, pun intended) back to the well-known strains Kush, Hash Plant, and Northern Lights. It offers very pungent, earthy diesel flavors and results in a relaxed, euphoric high with tinges of creativity floating on the periphery.

But like many of the strains on this list, Chemdawg should be approached with the caution it deserves. THC levels top out at 15-20% so it can kick you where it counts in no time flat and take you deep inside your head (for good or bad) on a very cerebral trip.

45: Cherry OG

Source: CannabisReports.com

The Cherry OG strain is the child of Cherry Thai, Afghani, and Lost Coast OG and is a 50/50 blend of indica and sativa that produces a pleasant 50/50 combination of mind and body high. You start with the heady high of sativa and end with a deep body relaxation that is a signature effect of indica.

True to its name, the first thing you’ll probably notice about this unique bud is that it is smaller and darker than most, and has a visibly reddish tone. It’s quite reminiscent of, well, what else? Cherries! Sometimes a name does really say it all.

44: Black Gorilla

Black Gorilla is a hybrid of Gorilla Glue #4 (a potent strain in itself) and Bright Berry so you know it’s gotta be good. This is one of those names that I often question.

It’s like they just picked a word out of a dictionary without giving it any thought. Aren’t most gorillas black? I certainly haven’t smoked enough weed that my answer would be no.

So why name it that? Why not get creative and call it Green Gorilla? Nice use of consonance, don’t you think? Dibs on the name, by the way! Or maybe go the rhyming way with Vanilla Gorilla?

Prosaic name aside, this is a nicely potent strain that will knock you on your ass like you’ve been hit by a black gorilla…oh, now I get it.

43: Kandy Kush

Kandy Kush is a sweet-flavored hybrid (sativa/indica mix) that produces a distinct lemon scent when smoked. It’s become a favorite amongst medical users because of its potent high and strong pain-relief quality.

Results may vary but Kandy Kush is great for relieving stress, depression, lack of appetite, and insomnia. That means, if you’re using this on a recreational basis, that you’ll feel awesome (physically and mentally), have a good meal, and get a great night’s sleep.

I’ll take that experience any day.

42: Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies

Some weed strains have very strange names and you just know they were thought up while under the influence. Other strains have names that are both appropriate and descriptive and were likely thought up in a stroke of genius (also under the influence, of course).

Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies is certainly one of the latter. Forget about the 17-28% THC. Forget about the euphoria and relaxation it creates. This strain is named appropriately because—like the delicious cookies—you can just never get enough.

41: Fruity Pebbles

Source: Pinterest.com

The Fruity Pebbles strain is an excellent choice for the beginner and expert alike. It’s mild but powerful effects won’t have you bouncing off the walls or held captive by your couch, but it will take you to places you’ve never been before.

This strain traces its roots back to the likes of Tahoe Alien, Green Ribbon, and Granddaddy Purple. Thanks to these distinguished genetics, Fruity Pebbles is a versatile bud with plenty of beneficial effects—both recreational and medicinal—that can be used for a variety of intents and purposes.

It’s well worth a quick try.

40: Afternoon Delight

Afternoon Delight is famous for its small, dense nugs that give off a distinct aroma of pepper, flowers, and pine. This indica-dominant hybrid has been described as producing “a hazy aura that engulfs the mind and body.”

Other dominant effects include relaxation and euphoria which means that this uplifting strain was very aptly named.

39: Bettie Page

Source: StuffStonersLike.com

If you’re looking to stoke your creativity, Bettie Page may be just the thing for you. This 50/50 hybrid that tastes of berries and diesel will have you coming up with some of your best weed-fueled inspirations ever.

One cannaenthusiast described this high-THC strain as producing mellow euphoria that focuses itself in the cerebral space and encourages energy rather than lethargy. Sounds great to me!

38: Acapulco Gold

Source: GrowingMarijuanaBlog.com

As the name suggests, Acapulco Gold originated in and around Acapulco, Mexico, although it’s becoming more and more difficult to find as grow operations move indoors.

This sativa strain is redolent with sweet, earthy, and citrus flavors that propel you into a happy place faster than a real trip to Acapulco.

37: Satori

Source: BreedBay.co.uk

Satori is indica/sativa hybrid that brings on feelings of extreme bliss. The high has been described as clear and powerful and will certainly fly the most jaded cannabis consumer to new euphoric and psychotropic places.

36: Alien Abduction

Source: MedicalJane.com

Alien Abduction packs a high-THC punch which may be where the strain got its name. It’s easy to imagine the original consumer of this product being sure he was being, or at least had been, abducted by aliens.

Alien Abduction combines a righteous head buzz with a “Why is my head so heavy?” body high. Medical users rave about Alien Abduction’s appetite-stimulant and sleep-aid properties.

35: AK-47

Source: TheNug.com

Though AK-47 may sound like it might put you down for the count faster than you can say, “Let’s get baked,” it’s really one of the more cuddly and lovable strains available.

The sweet, earthy, and woody aromas of this strain are the first thing you’ll notice, followed by a heady mix of energy, euphoria, and relaxation. This is a great choice if you want to function and have a good time rather float away into your own psychedelic world.

34: Brainwreck

Source: Pinterest.com

Brainwreck is the love child of a threesome between the strains Trainwreck, Brain Child, and Brain. Its effects are exhilarating and cerebral, making it the smart choice for consumers looking to avoid fatigue.

The nice thing about Brainwreck is that the mental effects last a lot longer than the physical effects.

33: Gravity

Source: Notey.com

Gravity is an indica strain that is becoming well-known for its high CBD content. That CBD punch makes it a popular choice for the treatment of chronic pain and stress.

Medical users like the fact that the Gravity strain can leave you relaxed but with energy to spare for normal activities.

32: Bordello

Source: PotGuide.com

If you like sativa-like mental effects from an indica-dominant strain, you’ll love experiencing what Bordello has to offer. Users say this strain hits behind the eyes first and then spreads throughout the body.

The combination of euphoric and uplifting effects will have you wondering how you’ll ever manage to focus your brain again.

It’s wise to clear your calendar and give your whole day over to Bordello just in case you can’t find your way out. Reminds me of this strain’s namesake.

31: Savant’s Grail

Source: MedicalJane.com

Want to push your euphoria, arousal, focus, giggliness, and happiness off the charts? Try Savant’s Grail.

This hybrid strain from Michigan took second place in the 2015 Michigan Cannabis Cup because of the unique combination of effects that knock the mind around while under its influence.

30: Carl Sagan

Source: Herb.co

As the late, great Carl Sagan once wrote, “The illegality of cannabis is outrageous, an impediment to full utilization of a drug which helps produce the serenity and insight, sensitivity and fellowship so desperately needed in this increasingly mad and dangerous world.”

The Carl Sagan strain can do that for you. Nuff said.

29: Bogart

The Bogart strain is reminiscent of earth and wood with subtle undertones of lemony goodness. Add in Bogart’s high THC content, and you’ve got a hybrid strain that is particularly useful for patients suffering from PTSD, nausea, stress, and chronic pain.

Bogart is also a great choice for smokers with a well-developed cannabis tolerance.

28: Cloud 9

Source: 420101.com

One toke of the Cloud 9 strain and you’ll be…on cloud nine! Sorry, that comparison is mandatory in the Strain Writer’s Handbook. If I hadn’t made that terrible joke, I’d be subjected to eight hours of the movie Back To The Beach on repeat as punishment.

Only the happy, giggly relaxation of the Cloud 9 strain could have gotten me through that hell on Earth.

27: Beastmode OG

Source: Herb.co

Want a powerful punch from your weed? Try the aptly named Beastmode OG. Named after NFL running back Marshawn Lynch, this strain mimics his explosive playing style.

The nice balance of indica and sativa effects mean that you’ll experience a wonderful elevation in mood along with relief from stress and pain.

26: Charlie Sheen

Source: Pinterest.com

Because of its parentage—Green Crack, OG Kush, and Blue Dream—this lemon-scented strain offers both relaxing and uplifting effects. The come-down is lengthy and sleepy which makes it great for insomnia and pain relief.

This indica dominant hybrid will save you from the dark side of physical pain. Skywalker OG is a cross between Skywalker and OG kush as opposed to Anakin and Padme.

24: Cannatonic

Source: Medicaljane.com

This indica is named after the Central Intelligence Agency’s illegal and highly disturbing mind control experiments on unwitting United States and Canadian citizens because of the strain’s powerful, hypnotic, fast-acting euphoric effects.

Cannabis Law in Thailand: A Guide to Growing & Smoking Marijuana

Thailand's Marijuana laws have evolved dramatically in recent times. What was once considered an illegal drug, unsafe for society, is now legal, mostly.

Thailand approved the decriminalization of cannabis, agreeing that the Health Ministry drop cannabis from its list of controlled drugs.

Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul signed an announcement removing the drug from Category 5 of the country’s list of narcotics, which is now in effect.

Previously regulated under the Narcotics Act, cannabis, or ganja (กัญชา – kancha), as it is known in Thailand, can be grown and sold and consumed.

There's still some uncertainty surrounding public use and how much can be grown. But from the buzz seen around the nation, it seems that cannabis is now fully open for personal and commercial use.

To help clarify some of the finer print, here's the answers to a number of common questions.
Is Marijuana Legal in Thailand?

Yes, but with some regulation.

It is legal to grow cannabis, but to do so you need permission.

Home growers must first tell the government via a website or smartphone app. Thus far, nearly 750,000 applications have been received from key growers.

Industrial and commercial marijuana growers must obtain a license from the Food and Drug Authority.

Cannabis can be used by restaurants. But the leaves and roots used in cooking must be supplied by FDA certified producers and the THC level must be less than 0.2%

You can also buy cookies and teas and other snacks in some stores, all infused with the sacred plant.

However, the over-arching rule in the consumption of cannabis is that the THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) content must be less than 0.2%.

THC is the main psychoactive compound in cannabis that produces the feeling of being “stoned”.

This means that the products aren't very strong, and certainly not on a par with a hash brownie from an Amsterdam cafe.

That said, people don't appear to be sticking to that rule, and this is where the confusion lies. For example, the Highland Café in Bangkok is already selling buds over the counter, which look pretty potent to me!
Can I Smoke Cannabis in Thailand?

Yes, but smoking in public can still be considered a public nuisance, so it's important to remember this if Somchai offers you a joint at a party.

Those caught smoking in public being a “nuisance” can be subject to fines of up to 25,000 baht ($723) and prison terms of up to three months.

This seems a little contradictory, though, considering Thailand just released 3,000 prisoners previously convicted of cannabis offenses, and is set to release more.

Despite politicians claiming there are these restrictions, it appears there will be no effort to police what people can grow and smoke at home, aside from registering with the government and declaring it is for medical purposes.
If Marijuana is Not Illegal, How Can You Be Arrested for Smoking?

Good question, and this is currently unclear. Those who are familiar with the visa system in Thailand will know that this is how things work here.

When a new law is introduced it takes a while to iron out all of the areas overlooked in the development process and clarify what's allowed and what isn't, and why!

My advice, as a foreign national, is to let Thai people pave the way first. Sit back for a few months and wait for things to become clearer. Smoke at home, indoors for now.
What's the Punishment if You're Caught Smoking or Growing Without Permission?

As far as I know the following legal guidelines still apply, but whether they will be amended or enforced is unclear at this point.Production, importation or exportation: 2-15 years imprisonment and a fine of 200,000 – 1,500,000 Baht
Disposal or possession for the purpose of disposal: 2-10 years imprisonment or a fine of 40,000 – 200,000 Baht or both
Quantity over 10 kilograms: Penalty is increased to a maximum of 15 years and a fine of 200,000 – 1,500,000 Baht
Possession: Imprisonment not exceeding 5 years and or a fine not exceeding 100,000 Baht or both
Consumption: Imprisonment not exceeding 1 year and a fine of 100,000 – 1,000,000
Can I Get Prescription Cannabis in Thailand?

Yes. But note that the strength of medical cannabis in Thailand may be much weaker than you are used to back home in California or Amsterdam.

This has been one of the major complaints from those suffering with long-term illness who have historically relied on a blackmarket supply.

Users have been so disappointed with the strength of medical cannabis that many have returned to the blackmarket to get a more potent supply.

This was recently highlighted in a Vice documentary (see below).

Is There Going to Be a Cannabis Sandbox?

This has been proposed but just how seriously is not clear.

Supposedly there will be an area of Thailand designated to ganja enthusiasts.

You'll be able to spend your holiday smoking, eating, and drinking cannabis-based products until your heart's content. Whether you'll actually get stoned or not is a different matter, because all the product will need to be under 0.2% THC.

It would certainly be a novelty feeling, but I doubt it will rival the cafes of Amsterdam. I don't think it will happen, certainly not this year anyway.
In Summary

Thailand is the most progressive country in the region when it comes to cannabis growth and consumption, but you might want to wait a while before you walk down the street with a big doobie hanging out your mouth and smile at the local bobby.

Do expect to see cafes popping up, and pretty much every dish being advertised with cannabis as a special ingredient.

Will the 0.2% THC be policed? I doubt it. It would waste a lot of police time. Though it could be a good tea-money maker for the BIB.

Most travelers will just do what they've always done: pop along to one of the bars on Phi Phi or Koh Phangan and pick up a sealer bag of the good stuff and smoke away, while the bar pays the local police to turn a blind eye.

Cannabis Clinics in Phuket

Cannabis Clinics in Phuket Phuket being one of the most celebrated tourist hubs in Thailand, every year draws thousands of tourists from around the world. Exotic beaches, captivating nightlife, delicious food, and abundant sunshine make Phuket tourists’ dream destination. Many trips advising websites promote Phuket a palace where tourism and cannabis go side by side. Going beyond such assertions, these trip portals suggest places with estimates of price where tourists can get cannabis. Not sure if there is any modicum of truth in such statements. For travelers who intend to visit that tourism hotspot, it is advised to follow local rules to enjoy your trip to the maximum without falling into avoidable controversies. Thailand with a history of strict anti-drug laws is amending the country’s harsh cannabis-related laws to capitalize on the economic and therapeutic advantages of marijuana. The limited cannabis liberalization in the far east nation is overshadowed by heavy regulations intend to prevent the misuse of the plant. In other words, foreigners and tourists can get cannabis in Thailand legally but like locals, they have to follow a formal marijuana acquisition process. Local laws to get cannabis in Phuket Just like any other part of Thailand, Phuket’s residents and foreigners alike need to fulfill the requirements mentioned in the laws governing cannabis possession and consumption in the country. The Government’s laws are meant to promote cannabis as a medical remedy while it can not be used for recreational and pleasure-seeking purposes. Local laws to get cannabis in Phuket Just like any other part of Thailand, Phuket’s residents and foreigners alike need to fulfill the requirements mentioned in the laws governing cannabis possession and consumption in the country. The Government’s laws are meant to promote cannabis as a medical remedy while it can not be used for recreational and pleasure-seeking purposes. In case, you are looking for recreational marijuana in Phuket, the Thai laws don’t permit it. Whether you are Thai national living in Phuket or a tourist came to have some memorable time here, you can only eligible to acquire legal marijuana if you are suffering from a health condition that falls into the list of approved medical conditions. The approved medical conditions enlist several conditions that the Thai government believes can be treated by using medical marijuana. You need a certificate from a qualified physician that verifies your health condition. Patients with certified health conditions can get medical cannabis from designated cannabis clinics or government-specified hospitals. Tourists entering the country with cannabis stash need to declare it to the customs authorities. There is a stock declaration form for tourists, they are required to list the amount of marijuana in their possession. Later, by visiting an FDA or public health office they can get their stock back by presenting the following documents. Passport Air tickets (as proof of traveling) Copy of medical prescription Prescribing doctor’s license Getting marijuana approval can be a bit hectic and complex. However, there are dedicated medical cannabis lines that foreigners can use to get their required information. The visitors can get information in English by dialing 1556, Ext. 3 from an FDA operated helpline. Another run by the Narcotics Control Board can be reached at 1386, Ext. 3 during regular government office working hours. Violation of cannabis laws We strongly discourage pursuing cannabis from illegal channels as advocated by some of the websites. Despite the country’s gradual progress to legalize marijuana, strict laws are in place to deal with unauthorized possession and consumption of cannabis. Violators may have to serve a jail term of one-year or pay a financial penalty worth of 20,000 baht (USD $ 600). Since laws don’t discriminate on the basis of violators’ nationalities, it means being a foreigner would not help you to escape the law in case of a violation. There are several cases of foreigners ending up in jail for illegally possessing cannabis in Phuket. Laws in transition Cannabis laws are in transition, and the government is making amendments deemed suitable. In one development, Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said hospitals under his ministry start prescribing medicines with cannabis extracts within three weeks. “While the drugs are in production now, I have asked that laws be amended to accommodate this move. Within 2-3 weeks, hospitals under the ministry will be allowed to prescribe drugs containing cannabis extract. Assuming good results from treatment, the policy on cannabis then will move on to the next step,” he said as reported by The Phuket News. In days to come, it is expected that regulations governing cannabis consumption would be amended and it would improve the availability of the drug as well as the acquisition process simple and straightforward. With such changes, cannabis can be acquired in Phuket with greater ease and less bureaucratic hassles

Cannabis oil in Thailand

What is Thai Cannabis oil?

The cannabis plant contains over 100 natural compounds called cannabinoids. These compounds are responsible for the different properties including the medicinal benefits of the marijuana plant. Of these cannabinoids two most popular are cannabidiol and Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol.

Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol popularly known as THC has psychoactive properties and causes high head sensations.

While cannabidiol also is known as CBD has anti-inflammatory properties and is used to address several health-related symptoms. Since CBD is extracted from the cannabis plant in the form of oil therefore, is also referred to as cannabis oil in Thailand.

Cannabis oil buzz

The growing awareness of the medicinal properties of cannabis oil has made it a buzzy wellness product. In countries where CBD is legalized to treat various health conditions cannabis the industry is flourishing. You may come across coffee shops selling CBD lattes, spas offering CBD massage, and cosmetics companies introducing CBD based wellness products.

With growing popularity, CBD has become an essential part of the wellness landscape in cannabis legal countries. Several articles in the mainstream media on CBD and its benefits reflect the increasing interest of people to know about this natural compound.

Since new countries are joining the list where medical cannabis is legal, the curious minds want to know what CBD is, how it is extracted, and how it interacts with the body. In Thailand where recent decriminalization of medical marijuana has sparked public interest in the properties of CBD oil. The answers to the above questions can help people understand better about cannabis oil allowing them to make informed consumption decisions.

How cannabis oil is extracted in Thailand?

The cannabis plant is believed to contain up to 40% of CBD. It is acquired from the plant using different extraction methods. Most often, carbon dioxide is used as a solvent to extract CBD from the plant matter. By applying a combination of high pressure and low temperature, the maximum quantity of CBD can be extracted from the plant.

Medical benefits of cannabis oil

The recent legislation in Thailand allows patients to consume medical marijuana for a list of approved health conditions. However, there are several people who want to know if there is any scientific evidence to support frequent claims of cannabis health benefits. The research on the medicinal effects of cannabis is still in preliminary stages.

The initial evidence validates several of the anecdotal claims of medical benefits of cannabis. The emerging scientific research outcome suggests cannabis oil is effective to treat a multitude of mental health conditions such as anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), addiction, and schizophrenia.

The growing scientific evidence also sheds light on cannabis oil’s potential to heal a number of physical health conditions. For instance, a study conducted on rats concluded that CBD can effectively help to address the arthritis pain.

Another study validates cannabidiol’s healing potential to deliver therapeutic relief to human skin issues such as acne vulgaris. Investigating the effects of CBD on human sebaceous gland function, the research found that cannabidiol is a highly effective sebostatic agent.

It is generally believed the therapeutic properties of cannabis oil comes from CBD’s anti-inflammatory character. A number of studies suggest that a combination of lipostatic, antiproliferative, and anti-inflammatory effects of CBD serve as a therapeutic agent to address the issue of acne vulgaris.

Another CBD research stream exploring complex childhood epilepsy disorder investigated the effects of CBD on this disorder with drug-resistant seizures causing high mortality rates. The findings showed a reduction in the total number of convulsive seizures when cannabidiol was administered. Overall CBD proved more effective in controlling seizures than placebo.

In Thailand, cancer makes the list of approved condition for which patients can seek and use medical cannabis. Despite popular anecdotal accounts of cannabis cancer healing properties, there is little research to investigate anti-cancer properties of CBD.

The preliminary scientific evidence, however, started emerging to show that CBD possesses anti-cancer properties. In addition, CBD also helps to manage the cancer treatment-related severe side-effects.

How does cannabis oil interact with the body?

In order to clearly understand the body CBD interaction, it is important to comprehend the endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS regulates important body functions such as sleep, mood, appetite, bowel movements, and more.

By maintaining a biological harmony, the ECS plays an important role in the body’s response to environmental conditions such as mental and physical stress. Initially, ECS receptors are thought to be present in the brain and nerves only but later research shows that endocannabinoid system receptors are found across the entire body. They regulate a number of critical body functions such as pain, memory, mood, appetite, sleep, stress, metabolism, immune system, and reproduction system.

Being the most versatile and widespread molecules in the human body, their right balance plays an important role in human health and happiness.

Components of ECS

The endocannabinoid system consists of three components namely receptors, enzymes, and endocannabinoids. It is important to note these ECS components are present in the body and their function does not depend upon the CBD. It means ECS components keep operating even when one does not consume CBD.

The ECS receptors are of two types: CB1 and CB2, and their job is to keep endocannabinoid intact. The enzymes make the second component of the ECS and they come in different forms but only two forms have the ability to breakdown the endocannabinoids.

Being a part of the central nervous system, CB1 receptors play an active role in the regulation of coordination, movement, pain, appetite, memory, mood, and other functions. While CB2 receptors are part of the peripheral nervous system and are associated with pain and inflammation regulation.

When enzymes breakdown endocannabinoids, these components try to bind with receptors. The CBD leaves its effect on the body by helping these components to bind with the receptors.

At the moment, there is no information to explain how CBD helps components of ECS to bind with the receptors. The researchers believe that CBD activates the receptors which in turn provide composure to the broken endocannabinoids. This CBD receptors interaction result in several health benefits for the human body.

The effect of CBD goes beyond endocannabinoids and influences non-endocannabinoids such as cannabidiol modulate a non-endocannabinoid receptor called 5 ht serotonin receptor. The role of this receptor is critical in controlling psychotic disorders.

The scientific evidence shows that CBD reduces chronic pain by affecting endocannabinoid receptor interaction.

A study involving rats found that CBD can effectively reduce the pain response to surgical procedures. Another scientific study found that Oral CBD administration significantly relieved sciatic never pain and inflammation in rats.

Where to find cannabis oil in Thailand?

In this far east country, cannabis is neither for everyone nor it is available everywhere. To get your hands on the legal CBD oil, you need to qualify two conditions. First, patients with approved ailments are entitled to apply for cannabis oil. Second, such patients need to get a medical certificate from a registered medical practitioner. The patients with a medical certificate can go to any of the cannabis clinics or authorized public hospitals.

Under the new law, the consumption of marijuana is only permitted for medical purposes. The recreational use of the drug is still illegal and can be subject to fine and jail sentence.

The Thai government is aspiring to become a regional hub for medical cannabis. As well as, the officials are trying to attract more and more tourists to the country.

If you are a foreigner and visiting the country, you can bring your stash with you. For the purpose, all tourists need to follow a set procedure. All foreigners with a valid medical certificate showing they suffer from an approved medical condition can purchase cannabis oil from designated clinics and hospitals.

Final thoughts

Cannabis oil is believed to possess useful medical properties that help address several ailments. The scientific evidence validates several of cannabis anecdotal benefits. However more research is required to truly understand the medical benefits of cannabis oil.

The consumption of cannabis oil in Thailand is subjected to heavy regulation. Therefore, knowledge of related laws is very essential before making any consumption decision. Any violation of medical cannabis law can invite serious consequences in the form of fine and jail term.

An Expat’s Guide to Cannabis in Thailand

In Thailand, we call marijuana gan-chaa (กัญชา), derived from the original Sanskrit term ganja, a favored synonym for the Devil’s lettuce in many countries around the world and an easy one to remember.

It is hard to believe that as this article in being published, Thailand has had legal weed for exactly eight days and yet there are already a few legal dispensaries open (and selling out of stock), there has already been a major 2-day weed-themed festival, and cafes, restaurants, and bars are already cashing in on the trend by selling THC-laden products along with more innocuous CBD and hemp offerings for various health benefits. Yes, you can get high legally in Thailand now but it is important to know the laws so you do not cross a line that could get you in trouble.

Timeline of Decriminalizing Cannabis in Thailand

Mary Jane was first approved for medical use with a certificate back in 2018 and rumors quickly spread that full decriminalization would soon follow.

On the 8th of May, 2022, in an unprecedented move, Anutin Charnvirakul, Thailand’s minister of health, announced that the government would distribute one million free cannabis plants to Thai citizens. People across the country signed up and received their baby plants to help them begin to grow and cultivate ganja at home for personal use. Finally, on June 9th of 2022, marijuana leaves and flowers (of any potency) were completely removed from the narcotics list.

Another step in the right direction happened almost immediately when Thailand announced they would release prisoners serving time for cannabis related offenses. Prisons were surveyed and viable candidates were elected. At the time of writing, 3,071 men and women were freed from behind bars.

On the 17th of June, 2022, Thailand woke up to the news that a new law was to be passed which requires all companies selling cannabis must have a medical licence. The actual wording of the bill sets the 20-year age minimum for buying cannabis and states it is not for use by or sale to pregnant women. The bit about prescriptions went under under debate, but after a few days of panic, dispensaries went back to business as usual.

In some more surprising news, Airports of Thailand’s Security Department reported that there was no law against people of legal age flying domestically with cannabis. Though, we personally probably won’t be risking that situation any time soon.

At the time of writing, the Cannabis and Hemp Act of Thailand is still in draft form. As Thailand leans into this cash crop and tourism magnet, things can still change and new laws and restrictions might still come into play. Keep up to date on the current situation, that is your responsibility as a visitor in Thailand.

Are You SURE Pot is Legal?

Yes. We are sure. In the beginning, it was thought that there would be a tonne of loopholes for the police to bust you with your doobie. People predicted that the laws would lack transparency, that you would need permission, that it would only include low THC level cannabis-adjacent products. But, when the big day finally came, Thailand was shockingly transparent with the laws and they were far more favorable to stoners than people expected. But there are still limits. Be informed.

Are You SURE these Laws Apply to Expats and Tourists?

Yes. We are sure. You are subject to the exact same laws surrounding marijuana in Thailand as Thai citizens, with the exception of various restrictions about applying for import export licenses (see below). Be warned though, that you can’t just become a weed dealer. The regular laws that apply to your job in relation to the type of visa you hold still apply. If you work in Thailand, you must hold a legal Thai visa and work permit for the job you are doing. Please don’t think you can sling herb on the side of your English teaching gig.

Why The Mixed Messages?

Basically, the international media has gotten a lot wrong about the Thai laws. Many reputable sites have consistently said that the weed we are allowed to buy now is not potent, that it is low in THC and not the primo kush we were hoping for. The reality is that NO new law has yet been written. The only thing that happened is that cannabis was taken off the narcotics list. This means that things are still up in the air as the government eventually pases new bills to regulate its use.

People under the age of 20 are not allowed to buy or use it (same as alcohol in Thailand). Officially, extracts are STILL on the narcotics list, so they are still illegal. But weed itself; flowers, leaves, stems, and seeds have no restrictions at all on them. No one is yet regulating weed potency and you can easily buy very strong sticky icky all over the country right now.

Learn The Laws

Don’t just believe us though, read for yourself and stay up to date on the changing situation. Here are the exact words according to Thai law at the time of writing.

Laws About Category V Narcotics

The most relevant law is the law which states what drugs are still “category 5” narcoticsaccording to the Thai Ministry of Health. It is in Thai and the Thai wording is the only legal authority. But the gist of it is that extracts from all parts of cannabis or hemp plants are category 5 narcotic if they contain THC levels over 0.2% by weight.

This means that extracts like oils, tinctures, and resins are totally illegal if they have pretty much any THC in them (remember that high-quality kush these days has up to 20% or even 30% THC).

Non-potent CBD products are acceptable. Products which promote sound sleep and tout pain-relieving qualities are okay, but the law specifies domestic products only, meaning nothing imported is legal at all. Thailand wants the profits that come with legalized ganja to stay in Thailand.

Laws About Edibles

Sadly, the less-than-0.2-percent rule applies to edibles. The process of extracting the THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) cannabinoids from the plant and infusing them into food and beverages qualifies as creating an extract.

This seems to be a contradiction to what people in Thailand are seeing in the market right now. Everywhere you look, shops are popping up specializing in weed snacks, ads on our social media are trying to sell us cannabis candies, even chain restaurants are cashing in, serving ganja on their pizzas! So what is that about?

Laws About Vaping

Also important to note that vaping is illegal in Thailand. And not just for the wacky tobacky. As vaping is a relatively new practice, the law which pertains to e-cigarettes is section 20 of the Customs Act of Thailand. It prohibits the importation of e-cigarettes and vapes, meaning if you are using one, you must have illegally imported it. If you are caught with one, the fine is up to 30,000 Baht and a possible jail sentence of up to 10 years.

Vaping weed will give the police the opportunity to double down on your punishment. Illegal possession of mariguana extracts over 0.2% could be up to 5 years in prison and a fine up to 100,000 Baht. Please obey the Thai laws.

Law Regarding Importation of Marijuana

Section 26 of Chapter 2 of the Thailand Narcotics act of 1979 is still relevant to the importation of marijuana extracts. This law states that no person shall produce, dispose of, import, export or possess narcotics of category IV or category V. Please do not try to bring edibles, oils, or any other cannabis product into Thailand from abroad.

There are certain conditions under which a Thai citizen can request a license to produce, import, export, dispose of, or possess narcotic substances under the category 5 narcotics list. But the licenses are tightly controlled and not a viable option for a foreigner in Thailand.

Laws About Growing Marijuana

Thai authorities are encouraging people to grow their own plants at home, they are even giving them away to Thai citizens. Their official reason for doing this is to encourage people to use their homegrown marijuana for personal use to treat various health conditions. This is the official line, and this is why some people have been suspicious. Some of the things the government representatives have said publicly seem to condemn smoking for fun.

Laws About Smoking Bud

You can smoke weed in private places anywhere in Thailand. This means your home or designated spots like bars and cafes that have made a “private” space for smoking weed. BUT you may not smoke in public places.

While there is no official law about this right now, police are ready to implement the law of public nuisance to clamp down on public blazers. The fine for this crime is up to 25,000 baht and/or three months in jail. Even the famously diligent Thonglor police made a public statement that they would not bother people possessing, buying, or selling weed. Just be cool, man. Smoke inconspicuously.

Laws About Medical Marijuana

The FDA in Thailand approved all hospitals of the Public Health Ministry to prescribe medical marijuana. On top of this, at least 25 specialist cannabis clinics were set up in 2020 to treat people in Thailand. So, if you have one of the approved conditions such as chronic pain, migraines, or insomnia and you talk to your doctor, you could score all kinds of oils and products that are technically not available to the public. Just keep your medical marijuana card on you at all times.

Laws About Driving or Riding Stoned

Common sense should tell us not to go around operating heavy machinery, cars, motorcycles, or anything else while high. But people still do these things, so let us reiterate that just because you are allowed to be high DOES NOT mean that you are allowed to partake in reckless endangerment. Just because the Thai law specifically relating to weed and driving has not been written, does not mean it is legal.

Other laws exist to cover your behavior if you are being irresponsible. Section 43 of the Land Traffic Act of 1979 states that a driver can’t operate a vehicle if they are incompetent to drive or if they drive with carelessness or recklessness. Just don’t imbibe and drive.

The Good Stuff – Where Do We Get It?

Okay, now that you are all brushed up on what you can and can’t do, how do you get your hands on some of that rockin’ reefer?

There are new shops popping up every minute in Thailand. There are several major dispensaries in Bangkok and just today there was a pop-up shop in the Market Village Huahin Mall on the ground floor, right there between Stabucks and Auntie Anne’s Pretzels were a dozen huge jars full of dank nuggets being openly sniffed and sold with names like Sky Walker, Godfather, Kalifah Kush, and Mobi Dick.

Other than in person shops, there are also a whole bunch of Line and Facebook shops for you to choose from, though we can’t speak to the legalities of these shops, whether they are licenced businesses or just people selling on the side is unknown, but until the laws are rewritten no one seems to care. Everyone is jumping on the bandwagon as fast as they can.

Shops & Dispensaries

Here are a few places you can shop in-person for all of your weedy needs:

Highland Café is the most prominent spot right now. The folks there are heavily involved in the market and one of the main organizers of the recent cannabis festival near Bangkok.

420 Cannabis Bar has several locationsand some very interesting products. Cannabis fried chicken anyone?

The Dispensary by Taratera is the most high-tech (no pun intended) cannabis operation with loads of science behind their goods.

Sukhumweed Dispensary got a lot of attention on opening day and sold out to long lines around the block, but we hear they have quickly restocked most products.

Leaf Cannabis Cafe has been around for a while selling non-THC products in preparation for the boom. They are now ready to serve more than leafy tea.

Chopaka is the brand new space full of fun accessories and bud from Thailand’s queen of Cannabis Kitty Chopaka.
Sensii is the latest dispensary to pop up in Bangkok, conveniently located inside the Tortilla Quemada restaurant so you can feed your munchies with tacos conveniently.
Candyland is the place to go if you are in Thailand’s coastal playground of Pattaya!

Online Shops

Here are a few options for those lazy days when you need your high delivered:

Bloom Asia was one of the first to go public about marijuana in Thailand. They sell a range of THC and CBD products online.

Candy After Dark is happy to send their kushy products right to your home with free delivery if you live near Chiang Mai.

Line Shopping. If you have a Line account (everyone in Thailand should) then you can simply put key words like “kush” into the search bar and get excited by the amazing selection of choice.

Strains, Varieties, Potency, and Prices

Cannabaceae is the family of plants, then cannabis indica and cannabis sativa are the two main subspecies of plants, hybrid is named as such because it is a new strain created by combining both indica and sativa. These are the three main cannabis strains available in Thailand.

In general indica is said to give a more relaxed and mellow effect, and sativa is said to be more energizing for daytime use with hybrid types being anywhere in the middle.

The thing is, these plants have been subject to so much crossbreeding, cultivation techniques and hybridization that the lines are becoming less clear. Cannabis experts are starting to see no difference between some strains and naming new varieties is becoming a bit of a branding exercise more than anything else.

The names of varieties are endless and reading them can sound like the menu for a delicious ice cream shop: Bubblegum, Orange Cream, Cherry Bomb, Girl Scout Cookies, Grape Diamond, Gelato, Truffletini, Mandarin Cookies, Sage n’ Sour, and Strawberry Banana Cream just for a few examples. There are at least 700 of them around the world. Each one has been created to give the user slightly different experiences.

There is no real way to know how weed will affect you, your mood and surroundings as well as what else you have consumed, and even the people near you will affect your experience, someone might feel sleepy on sleepy on sativa, another might feel energized on indica, the best way to figure out what you like is to try a bit for yourself.

In Thailand, quality buds are going for 400 THB to 650 THB per gram on average, and you certainly get what you pay for when it comes to the ganja.

Now, on to You

This is just the beginning for cannabis in Thailand. The news is changing daily, people are very excited and some are getting a bit carried away. When you suddenly remove all restrictions in a country that has had very strict drug laws for an eternity, there is going to be a settling-in phase.

As the first couple of days of decriminalization passed, Thailand saw kids who ate too many edibles freaking out and checking themselves into hospitals, scaremongering began, rumors of immediate restrictions being enforced popped up in the news and were refuted hours later by someone higher up. This is normal, and we will still have to wait and see where Thailand will land when all the new laws are in place.

But for now, as of mid June 2022, you can come to Thailand, blaze up a jazz cigarette, rip bongs, pass the dutch, and enjoy your 420 moment… or should we rephrase “420” to better represent Thailand’s special day? Yes! Henceforth, “96ing” is the new euphemism for the good herb in The Land of Smiles!

Thailand’s budding legal cannabis scene was reeling in confusion this morning after a new government order instructed police to arrest anyone selling weed without “permission” – despite the fact no such permission exists.

One of the people currently working on amendments to the bill to regulate weed told Coconuts this morning that the current free-for-all was never intended, and that yesterday’s new order instructing police to “arrest and prosecute” those selling or exporting cannabis without permission was intended to close the legal loophole which has existed since legalization on June 9.

Update: Weed whiplash: ‘Arrest’ order for dispensary operators revoked after spreading confusion, fear

“Dispensaries should never have existed in the first place,” said the woman, who is working with the parliamentary committee to beef up the much-anticipated Cannabis Act. Describing herself as opposed to cannabis liberalization, the doctor spoke on condition of anonymity as she was not authorized to speak to the media.

She said that cannabis may only be sold at approved clinics, which would be consistent with officials’ repeated insistence it is meant for “medical purposes” only.

“Those dispensaries should close their shops now,” she said.

That will be crushing news to the legions of longtime advocates and instant entrepreneurs who have hurried to open storefronts in recent weeks.

Several dispensary owners told Coconuts this morning that the health ministry order left them uncertain what to do, whether to open their stores, or how to obtain permission to do so – an uncertainty parroted even by the police.

“I don’t know what to do next. I’m lost at sea,” said one dispensary owner who spoke on condition of anonymity, for fear of unspecified repercussions.

With cannabis recently designated a regulated medicinal to support the setting of an age limit by emergency decree, yesterday’s new order was signed by Narong Saiwong, deputy secretary of public health. It gave no timeline for when it would be imposed.

None of the order pertains to consumption – people are still free to spark up their stash as they were before, regardless of their reason. In fact, the man credited with leading the legalization charge – Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul – promised yesterday that weed would not be re-criminalized.

But the immediate effect was to throw the rapidly growing community of dispensaries into disarray, with some immediately closing and others taking a wait-and-see approach.

A representative of The Dispensary by Taratera on Silom Road said it has stopped selling buds with THC content until it acquires permission from the authorities.

Asoke-area dispensary owner Chokwan “Kitty” Chopaka this morning announced that she would also no longer sell buds at her shop until it received official approval.

Owners of the Sukhumweed dispensary in Soi Sukhumvit 42 said it was open today and selling buds as usual while a lawyer was dispatched to determine what permission was required.

Not even the police had any insight into what it all meant, or how to prosecute violators. Thonglor police chief Col. Duangchote Suwanjaras told Coconuts this morning that he and his team will meet later this week to seek “clarity” on the new order.

“We will discuss later this week for clarity on this,” he said. “Right now, the Cannabis Act hasn’t been enacted yet, so we have to look into the other laws and see which ones we can enforce.”

When weed became fully legal June 9, it was a free-for-all as no regulations had been prepared to regulate its sale or consumption. While parliament works on finalizing a bill that would codify a regulatory framework, speculation has run wild that it will either support the new status quo or drop a new set of draconian prohibitions.

What definitely doesn’t exist, yet, is any form of license or process for obtaining permission as required in the new order.

The order also says that since cannabis has been classified as a controlled medicine, people cannot conduct research, export, sell, or process it without the express permission. The order also specifies that permission is to be obtained from the Department of Thai Traditional and Alternative Medicine in Bangkok, or provincial health departments in other provinces.

It states that, “for public order,” the health ministry would notify the Royal Thai Police and officials under existing traditional medicine regulations to prosecute any violators.

Another Bangkok dispensary owner, who refused to give his name for fear of legal repercussions, said that while his dispensary had opened this morning, it quickly closed after staff saw what they believed to be an undercover police officer walk in and take several photographs before leaving. They feared officers might return to raid the store.

He said dispensary owners should set up an association or network to share useful information and advice, especially during a “confusing time” like this.

Several calls to the Department of Thai Traditional and Alternative Medicine went unanswered this morning.

Police to seek ‘clarity’

Among the issues police chief Duangchote said police will discuss included how to test the level of THC, the psychoactive compound that gets people high. Currently, people can possess cannabis, no matter the THC content, but extracts such as edibles, oils or hashish cannot exceed 0.2% THC.

“We have to find out about that for sure, too,” Duangchote said.

Addressing public confusion about the new order, the chief vowed to find clarity as soon as possible. He did not signal any imminent crackdown or arrests.

“We don’t want to scare people off, but of course something has to be done because right now [cannabis sales] have been way out of line.”

Duangchote referred to the increasingly common sight of people selling cannabis openly in the street, sometimes in plastic bag like candy – alongside the amulets, vegetables and sex enhancement products widely found on sidewalks.

Duangchote said it poses a risk to minors.

Public health minister Anutin Charnvirakul said yesterday that the Cannabis Act should return to parliament by the end of August. If passed, the bill would then go for royal endorsement.

While there was a surprising lack of organized opposition to legalization before it happened – largely as it flew under the radar – the ensuing moral panic has been compounded by unforced errors and the absence of what would, arguably, be valid and useful rules.

The order comes a few days after hundreds of medical staff and alumni from a prominent university hospital suddenly blamed liberal cannabis policies for encouraging recreational use rather than medicinal and harming youth in a petition urging officials to rein it in with strict regulations.

Cannabis Clinics & Dispensaries in Bangkok

Best Places to Buy Weed

Thailand’s government is replacing harsh anti-drug laws that permit cannabis consumption to address a multitude of approved health conditions. This to realize the economic prospects as well as the medical potential of cannabis.

Thailand becomes the first far-east nation to embrace the legalization of cannabis. Adopting a rather careful approach where the country is witnessing a gradual change to cannabis related laws.

Furthermore unleashing a new era in the legalization of the plant. As a first step, two full-time cannabis dispensing clinics were opened on Monday 11th May 2019. With this, Bangkok became the first Thai city where patients can get medical marijuana. It is available for approved conditions from a full-time dedicated cannabis clinic.

Talking at the opening of the clinic, Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul noted, “Today marks the beginning.”

Pointing to the underlying objectives, he told Thailand Medical News, “We are fighting for the better health of Thai people and fighting for better economy.”

Under this flagship project that is run by Public Health Management, almost 400 patients received free cannabis oil in the suburb of Bangkok.

These two clinics now joined the list of 25 already operating clinics on a part-time basis, reflecting the gradual progress towards marijuana liberalization.

With an intention to expand the network of marijuana clinics nationwide, the government has planned two more cannabis clinics in case results are promising.

In the coming days, several key developments are expected to appear on the cannabis legalization landscape. More clinics with greater convenience of booking making are likely to be opened where patients would be allowed to make their appointments using smart phone apps.

List of Cannabis Dispensary in Bangkok

Bangkok and Phuket are two of Thailand’s most popular tourist destinations and are also home to a growing number of cannabis dispensaries.

Phuket is an island in Thailand known for its stunning beaches, crystal clear waters, and lush tropical landscapes. However, visitors to Phuket may also notice another less desirable feature: weeds. Weeds are a common problem in Phuket, and they can grow on sidewalks, roadsides, and even on the sand at the beach.

While they may not be as visually appealing as the island’s other flora, weeds in Phuket play an essential role in the ecosystem. They help prevent soil erosion, filter water, and provide food and shelter for wildlife.

In addition, some weed species are used in traditional Thai medicine. So while weeds may not be everyone’s favorite plant, they are an essential part of the natural landscape of Phuket.

These dispensaries offer a wide range of products, including CBD oil, edibles, and topicals. Many also provide education and advice on how to use cannabis safely and effectively. Here is a list of some of the best cannabis dispensaries in Bangkok and Phuket:
