Is CBD Legal?

Posted by Claire Osborn on

Twenty-eighteen was a landmark year for the CBD industry.

When the 2018 Farm Bill recognized hemp as an “agricultural commodity,” it changed the plant’s status away from a Schedule I prohibited substance and opened the door to legal CBD products at the federal level.

 The question of whether CBD is legal where you live, however, still comes down to the state you call home. While some states offer full legality to CBD products, other states determine restrictions based on how the CBD is derived or will allow CBD only to those dealing with specific medical conditions.

CBD products that are derived from hemp rather than cannabis and that offer THC content less than 0.3% are the most widely accepted, least-restricted CBD products across America. It’s best, though, to explore and confirm any claims made about these standards so you can ensure the CBD you’re considering is legal where you live.

Look for CBD producers who will let you review the relevant Certificate of Analysis (COA) for the product you’re interested in. Vetted and created by independent third parties, COAs not only provide crucial information about potential contaminants, but these documents also measure and report the amount of THC so consumers will know a CBD product meets the 0.3% threshold.
