Personal, private consumption is not itself an offence, but cultivation and any supply are, and the line is drawn by a prosecutor.
Instrument: Ley 20.000 · Checked: 2026-08-09
Possession
The mushrooms themselves are not clearly named in law, or the law is not meaningfully enforced. Treat this as risk, not permission. (general reading of the status; this entry does not quote a possession rule)
Cultivation
Treat this as risk rather than permission. Where the law is vague, silent or barely enforced, a grow is judged by a prosecutor rather than by a clear statute, and that can change with one case, one crackdown or one amendment. Unenforced is not the same as lawful. This entry does not separately track cultivation. Read the instrument named below and a local source before you act.
Spores
This entry does not name spores. Spores contain no psilocybin and are treated separately in many places, but germinating them is cultivation wherever the mushrooms are controlled.
