The court also ruled that punishing a person for using pot will only be allowed if their actions put a third party at risk.

Moreover, the selling and cultivation of marijuana will remain a punishable offence.

Although, Georgia is not a major drug-producing country. Local production is limited to small-scale cultivation of cannabis and kitchen production of opioids and amphetamine-type stimulants for personal use.

According to drug-related legislation, the usage of drugs is a criminal offence in Georgia. First-time illegal drug consumption or possession of a small quantity of drugs for personal use is a misdemeanor offence. A repeated violation within a year of the first episode results in criminal liability.
