UK Spore Law Questions
    #9895113 - 03/02/09 07:25 AM (15 years, 2 months ago)

I may be moving from the US to the UK in a couple of months. I have searched the boards, but most of the law posts I find regarding the UK seem dated, and while I am quite familiar with the US law, I am clueless regarding UK law.

In the US: Legal to possess or have a spore syringe/print shipped to you for microscopy purposes (except for a few states), and illegal to cultivate.

In the UK:
1) Can you legally possess a spore syringe? i.e. could I be busted for possession of a spore syringe?
2) If I order from an American shroomery vendor, will customs give me any trouble? i.e legal to import?
3) If I order from a European shroomery vendor, will customs give me any trouble? i.e legal to import?
4) Are syringes/needles readily available in the UK?
5) If I can't buy syringes/needles, can I have them shipped to the UK without trouble?

I would appreciate anyone who lives in the UK and familiar with the law to respond :smile:

I did a couple google searches and couldn't find anything.  I guess that is good news for you.

Cool. I found this online Erowid International Laws, but it may be out of date. It says fresh mushrooms are legal, although it is refuted by wikipedia:

Quote:

As of 18 July 2005[17], both dried and "prepared" (that is, made into a tea) psilocybin mushrooms were made illegal in the United Kingdom. Prior to this date, fresh mushrooms were widely available (even in city centre shops), but section 21 of the Drugs Act 2005 made fresh psychedelic mushrooms ("fungi containing psilocin"), a Class A drug.[18] Prior to these laws being passed, possession and use of psilocybin and psilocin was prohibited, but courts had ruled the law did not apply to naturally-occurring substances containing these compounds, and for a brief period Psilocybe cubensis and other psilocybin mushrooms were sold in farmers markets. Mushrooms spores are not illegal, due to the fact they do not carry psilocin until they are cultivated. (Wikipedia)

That information is out of date.  I notified Earth Erowid of the error.  There are about a hundred more errors on that page which I offered to fix. 


The psilocybin vault has much more accurate legal info for the UK, the wikipedia info looks good also.

Hi ya

You can legally possess a spore syringe in the UK, although being caught with one will cause unwanted interest.
Fresh shrooms are now illegal in the UK
I have ordered from a vendor before and had no problems
Spore syringes are available from UK suppliers

Magic Mushrooms in any form are class A, the highest class of drug in the UK. But spores are legal, for research purposes only, whatever that means?
