PR Psilocybin law · Americas · Reviewed Nov 12, 2026
Prohibited: psilocybin mushrooms remain illegal in Puerto Rico, and the November 2026 executive order did not authorize treatment or legalize them.
Puerto Rico lists psilocybin and psilocin as Schedule I substances, and the supplied legal summary says simple possession is a local felony, with a stated three-year term; it also notes that a first offender may be placed on probation and the case later dismissed. Federal law applies too; the supplied summary states that federal first-offense simple possession can carry up to one year in prison and a minimum $1,000 fine.
The supplied materials say psilocybin is controlled under both Puerto Rico and federal law and that the local listing covers material containing psilocybin, including mushrooms. They do not separately specify rules for spores or grow kits; no exception for those products is established in the supplied material.
There is no routine legal treatment route described. Puerto Rico's November 2026 executive order directs work on research capacity and assessment of whether future clinical research is feasible; it expressly does not authorize routine clinical use, prescribing, or administration. Any future study would require applicable approvals.
The supplied material does not document legal retail shops or retreats. The executive order does not change enforcement authority or permit activities that violate local or federal law.
