    • Foreign nationals have clear legal right to attend ceremonies at recognized religious organizations without citizenship requirements or specific visa documentation
    • Brazil conducted the world's first placebo-controlled clinical trial for ayahuasca in treatment-resistant depression (UFRN 2019) and ranks third globally in high-impact psychedelic research publications; 2024 Clinical Research Law (14,874/2024) streamlined ethics approval processes

    The evidence behind this score 5 cited points
    • Over 30 court acquittals in ayahuasca cases since 2010; TSJM Ruling 316/2025 (July 10, 2025) from Spain's second-highest court ruled ayahuasca 'is neither individually listed nor explicitly prohibited under any national or international legal provision'
    • DMT classified as Schedule I under Royal Decree 2829/1977, but ayahuasca plant preparation is not listed under Spanish drug control law or the 1971 UN Convention per INCB clarification
    • No formal therapeutic licensing system, government-approved treatment centers, or medical professional authorization pathway exist; retreat operators work without government permits
    • Over 30 retreat centers operate openly across Spain's regions; international patients access without legal barriers, making Spain one of Europe's primary ayahuasca medical tourism destinations
    • Ongoing enforcement continues despite judicial tolerance (October 2024 National Police investigation in Torrelodones); TSJM ruling applies formally only to Madrid jurisdiction, creating geographic inconsistency

  3. 3 Colombia CO 3.5/5 Moderate Colombia offers legally protected ayahuasca access through robust indigenous constitutional rights (Articles 7, 246; ILO Convention 169) and recent government formalization via Decreto Ley 480/2025 (SISPI), with zero ... Full report

    • Indigenous healer Don Jose Campos received an acquittal in March 2023 after facing 10-25 years in prison, establishing legal precedent distinguishing plant medicine from synthetic DMT
    • Practical risk of legal issues for retreat guests is very low, with legal problems mainly relating to import/export of ayahuasca itself rather than participation in ceremonies
    • Multiple arrests of shamans entering Mexico with ayahuasca in 2022-2023 after marines took control of customs, showing cross-border transport remains legally complex
