Legal guidance for drug offences

- Persons caught consuming drugs can pay fines starting with EUR 200. Legal persons can pay up to 5 times this fine.
- Persons who refuse to undergo a clinical test/examination to determine the type of drugs used can face 2 years in prison and pay a fine of EUR 30,000.
- In the case of a conviction, fines can increase by up to 10% or more.
- As for the use of controlled drugs in France, this is prohibited. Over 200 psychoactive substances are prohibited for personal use, in public, repeated or occasional use.
We also mention that persons accused of drug use and who do not pay the imposed fine will be tried in the court of law. Our French lawyers can represent you in such delicate situations.
Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs in France – How we can help
Another unpleasant situation for which legal help from our criminal lawyers in France is recommended is that of persons caught/accused of driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. According to the French Highway Code, offenders can serve up to 2 years in prison and pay a fine of around EUR 4,500 if the alcohol level in blood is higher than 0.8 g/l.
