- Possession under the personal-use limit is a misdemeanour, not legal — fines and police records still apply.
- Absinthe is legal but the high-thujone novelty bottles sold to tourists are often diluted compared to regulated EU stock.
JURISDICTION NOTES
- Personal-use thresholds are defined by government decree (10g of cannabis, 1g of cocaine), and amounts above are criminal.
- Open-container laws are stricter in Prague's central historic zone than in the rest of the country, with on-the-spot fines.
