Weed in Vaduz, Liechtenstein: A Simple Story

Hi there! This is a story about a trip to Vaduz, Liechtenstein, where I learned some interesting things about cannabis, or in other words weed or ganja. It’s a magic plant that people use to feel relaxed or happy. But in Vaduz, it’s not so easy to find, and there are some important rules about it.

So, I just touched down back home from Vaduz a couple of days ago, still got that fresh buzz in my head as I’m sparking up this joint of girl scout cookies strain. Man, Vaduz was lit — couldn't have had a better time without those dank buds keepin' me company.

Coppin' Weed in Vaduz: The New Wave

So here’s the scoop on how folks are gettin' their green in Vaduz. Sam gave me some info — big-time cannabis dealers are all about that darknet life, coppin' their supply from shady onion sites like DrChronic or Bitpharma. They flip it to locals and tourists alike. But if you’re just in Vaduz for a few days, tryin' to navigate the darknet and waitin' on cannabis shipments ain't it.

For the average tourist, the game has changed. You ain’t gon' find street dealers in Vaduz as easy anymore. Now, it’s all about those encrypted messengers. You get the plug’s contact, check out the menu, and decide on a drop-off spot. No face-to-face meetups, just a masked package and some GPS coordinates. Pay with crypto, pick up your stash, and dip. Safe and sound. Was I glad I had Sam as my connect? Hell yeah. Didn’t have to mess with all that drama.

Cannabis Laws in Liechtenstein: What You Need to Know

First things first, it’s important to understand that high-THC cannabis is illegal in Vaduz. Unlike in Amsterdam, you won’t find any coffee shops selling potent marijuana strains. While medical cannabis is available, it’s typically low in THC and won’t give you the high you might be looking for.

During my stay, I met a local named Sam in the hotel bar. He’s lived in Vaduz for a while and knows a lot about the cannabis scene. According to him, while the official regulations are strict, enforcement isn’t always so rigid in practice.

How the Cannabis Law Is Enforced in Vaduz

Technically, any cannabis product with more than 1% THC is illegal in Vaduz. However, Sam explained that the police tend to be relatively relaxed when it comes to cannabis in Vaduz, especially with tourists.

If you’re caught with a small amount — less than 10 grams of weed or 5 grams of hash — you’re unlikely to face serious consequences. The police might confiscate your weed, but it’s unlikely you’ll get into much trouble as long as you’re discreet.

Attitude of Vaduz locals to weed

You already know that good non-medical marijuana with high % THC is not something you can officially buy in a branded cannabis shop in Vaduz, but this does not mean locals are too much against weed 😃. Youngsters and students are definitely those who share their love of cannabis and welcome new smokers in their circles. They can not imagine a good party without having a joint or two, while it’s hard to join them if you are already a “25+ old man”.

In general smoking some occasional joint after a long working week is a pleasant tradition among many people in Vaduz, so no one will point fingers at you seeing how you are smoking weed, but better to avoid doing this publicly just not to bring useless attention.

When I was in Vaduz, Sam invited me to a small party with some friends. They had some weed and played PS5, and everyone seemed okay with it as long as we were indoors and respectful. How lucky I was😁 Sam told he will be my weed dealer while I am here in Vaduz so I had no issues with great stuff all that time.

Five random facts about cannabis

1. Modern-Day Cannabis Is A Lot Stronger

We talked about this on the cannabis flower and its influence in the 60s. For one, it’s purer than the illegal “hippie weed” that was imported into the United States.

The musical star was buried with his red Gibson guitar, a cannabis bud, and a Bible open on the 23rd Psalm, which reads: “The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures”. Way to go, Marley.
