What are the current rules on small personal amounts, asking for a friend.

Surprisingly severe, haven’t researched this in any depth but despite often smelling it on the street when I venture out of our village (where pastis remains the intoxicant of choice), France has some of the strictest laws in Europe.
200 euro fine for possession - on the spot fine now rather than arrest. Changed in 2020.

Our neighbour smokes it a lot so that made me wonder.
I don’t know the current rules, but tell your friend not to bring a stash over; it’s very easily found here.
A good friend in the Gendarmerie, told me that they’re not bothered with personal use unless driving under the influence (be careful as if tested positive for alcohol, they test for other substances, & these can take days to get out of the system) or supplying.
Just read this, whatever next - Pope on dope?
