Is it safe to travel with cannabis products?
Traveling with cannabis products involves significant legal risks. Cannabis remains illegal in many countries and at international borders. We strongly advise against traveling with any cannabis products and recommend only using local legal options at your destination.
What should I do if arrested for cannabis-related offenses while traveling?
If arrested: 1) Remain calm and cooperative, 2) Ask for legal representation immediately, 3) Contact your embassy or consulate, 4) Do not sign documents you don't understand, 5) Follow our Emergency Guide for detailed procedures. Remember, being a tourist does not exempt you from local laws.
How does your risk assessment system work?
Our 5-level risk assessment system evaluates countries based on legal status, enforcement practices, penalties, and tourist-specific risks. Level 1-2 are considered safer, Level 3 requires caution, and Levels 4-5 are high-risk destinations where we strongly advise against any cannabis-related activities.
Can I travel with medical cannabis prescriptions?
Medical cannabis prescriptions are not universally recognized. Even with a valid prescription from your home country, you may face legal issues abroad. Research destination laws thoroughly and consider alternative treatments. Some countries have reciprocal medical cannabis programs, but these are rare.
Do you provide emergency assistance?
We provide comprehensive emergency contact information including local police, medical services, and embassy contacts for each country. However, we are an information platform only and cannot provide direct legal assistance or intervention services.
How do you ensure data accuracy?
We source information from official government websites, legal databases, and verified community reports. Our team regularly reviews and updates content, but laws can change rapidly. We encourage users to verify information and report any inaccuracies they discover.
Do you collect or store personal information?
We prioritize user privacy and collect minimal personal information. We do not track browsing habits or share data with third parties. See our Privacy Policy for detailed information about data handling practices.
Can I access information offline?
Our platform works as a Progressive Web App (PWA) which allows limited offline access to previously viewed content. For emergency situations, we recommend downloading our Emergency Guide before traveling to areas with poor internet connectivity.

Please contact us through our feedback form with specific details about incorrect information. Include the page URL, the incorrect information, and the correct information with sources if possible. We review all reports and update content accordingly.
