Intoxicants

Using intoxicating substances in public places in built-up areas and on public transport is forbidden. The ban on drinking alcohol does not apply to places where alcohol can be served in accordance with a special licence or notification, or to the inside of a vehicle in private use.

Furthermore, the ban on drinking alcohol does not apply to drinking alcohol in a park or any other similar public place. However, drinking alcohol and related sojourn and behaviour may not unduly hamper other people’s right to use the place for its actual purpose.
