Karon cannabis dispensary faces licence revocation after inspection
Officials inspected four cannabis shops in Karon, serving one with a licence-revocation notice and referring another for allegedly breaching permit conditions.
Phuket district administration and public health officials inspected four cannabis dispensaries in Karon on 16 September 2026, serving one establishment with a notice of licence revocation.
A second licensed shop was found to have breached its permit conditions by allowing customers to smoke cannabis inside. Officials documented the violation and will submit the case for further review, with possible licence withdrawal pending.
Authorities also seized cannabis-derived products suspected of containing controlled substances and sent them to investigators for laboratory testing. The products’ legal classification will depend on the test results, and officials said no conclusion would be made before those results are confirmed.
