St. Vincent and the Grenadines

Medical useeffective

Psilocybin is legal for medical use in St. Vincent and the Grenadines as of 06 Aug 2026.1

1. What the law is

Key legislation

Scientific Research Licenses issued by the SVG Bureau of Standards (initiative announced 29 October 2020; e.g., Med Plant Science license 1 March 2022) permitting cultivation, processing, import/export and research of psychedelic compounds including psilocybin for medicinal purposes, expandable to clinical treatment facilities.1

This entry rests on a claim we cannot check. Companies have announced since October 2020 that the Bureau of Standards issues Scientific Research Licenses to cultivate, process, import, export and research psilocybin for medicinal purposes, with regulated wellness clinics planned for eligible patients. No government document saying so has been found, and the government's own website returns nothing for psilocybin. Nothing found makes possession generally lawful either. The status stands because prohibition would be equally unsupported.

2. Pending legislation

No bill is on file in St. Vincent and the Grenadines that would change this record, as of the 06 Aug 2026 review.
