Peru is updating its legislation to regulate the medicinal and therapeutic use of cannabis and its derivatives.
The New Regulation – Supreme Decree No. 004-2023-SA – comes into force on September 1, 2023.
The New Regulation:
• Strengthens the regulation, scope and coverage of the use of cannabis and its derivatives for medical and therapeutic purposes.
• Regulates, in a more specific manner, the parameters and/or requirements so that those who are administered may carry out research, production, importation, and commercialization of cannabis and its derivatives and artisanal production of cannabis derivatives with associative cultivation.
