New cannabis laws in South Africa – you’re allowed to have up to 1,500 joints

• You are allowed to possess up to 1,500 joints (750g) of cannabis under the proposed regulations.
• The proposed regulations aim to provide clarity on quantities, but issues such as the distinction between wet and dry cannabis remain unclear.
• The 750g limit may be insufficient for some, but most people are expected to be satisfied with the proposed limit, and further clarification is needed on key issues.
