CBD Oil → Greece
Purpose: Traveling · Verified: 2026-07-23
CBD Oil is generally prohibited for travelers entering Greece.
Details
CBD Oil is prohibited for travelers entering Greece. Independent Authority for Public Revenue — Customs screens baggage at all ports of entry; the item is seized regardless of quantity, and depending on item class (narcotic / weapon / counterfeit / cultural-heritage), the traveler may face administrative or criminal penalty under the destination's controlled-substances / customs act. EU customs harmonisation and EU Regulation 608/2013 IPR enforcement apply alongside national rules. Personal-import permit pathways exist for medication categories (see Independent Authority for Public Revenue — Customs guidance) but do not apply to most prohibited items.
Leaving with this item
CBD product export from Greece is restricted by THC content; sub-threshold hemp-derived products face lighter treatment.
Practical advice
Do not carry CBD Oil into Greece. If you arrive with the item by accident, surrender at the Red Channel for seizure-only treatment rather than walking the Green Channel — the latter is treated as deliberate smuggling. Contact Independent Authority for Public Revenue — Customs via https://www.aade.gr/ for current personal-import policy if your situation is exceptional (medical / diplomatic).
