MDMA legal status in Colombia
At a glance
MDMA is listed as a controlled substance; possession law is legally nuanced [1]
What do the official sources say?
Resolution 315 of 2020 lists MDMA in List I of substances subject to control. Colombia’s personal-use doctrine and constitutional decisions complicate the treatment of possession for exclusive personal consumption; the statute’s listed personal-dose quantities do not specify an MDMA amount. Do not infer a fixed MDMA safe-harbor quantity. Distribution or sale is a separate legal issue. Obtain current Colombian legal advice before relying on this summary. [1] [2] [3] [4]
Is research or therapy different?
MDMA is not described here as routinely approved therapy. Research or medical handling of controlled substances is subject to applicable Colombian registration, authorization, and oversight requirements. Confirm current requirements with INVIMA and Colombian counsel. [1] [2] [3] [4]
What should I check locally?
This summary is not a decision about your circumstances. Check current legislation, local rules and the scope of any authorisation with a qualified local professional. No source here should be read as permission to possess, obtain or supply MDMA.
