Legal status of the coca leaf in Chile?


I know that in Peru and Bolivia, many indigenous peoples chew the coca leaf as part of their culture. Chile has some Andean territory, so are the indigenous people there allowed to chew the coca leaf? Can it be found in other parts of Chile?

NO. The indigenous in Chile don麓t chew coca. In Argentina the people chew coca without problems

Chile has virtually no indiginous indians, with the exception of the Mapuche along the south coastal regions. You won't find coca there.

You wont find coca leafs anywhere only near Peru.
Coca leaf is not illegal tho.

As for cocaine ull find it everywhere.
