Both recreational and medical cannabis are illegal for sale, possession, or cultivation in Latvia. Latvia did not outlaw cannabis in any form until it became a part of the USSR, what is unique in comparison to other European countries.
Possession and use of small amounts of cannabis (usually considered to be a gram or less) is not a criminal offense and is punishable by a warning or a fine. But repeated offenses of small amounts with 12 months is a criminal offense, and punishable by up to 3 months in prison, community service, or a fine.
