Federal

Applies in every state.

BannedFrom Dec. 11, 2026 (unless Congress extends the delay again), federal law no longer treats as hemp any consumer product with more than 0.4 mg total THC (incl. THCA) per container or any synthesized/converted cannabinoid, so delta-8/THCA/hemp-THC edibles and hemp flower become federally illegal marijuana everywhere in the US.

BannedFrom Nov. 12, 2026, hemp products containing cannabinoids that the cannabis plant cannot naturally produce (e.g. THC-O acetate, HHC and other lab-made cannabinoids) are excluded from the federal hemp definition and are Schedule I nationwide.

SEC. 2019. <<NOTE: Applicability.>> SECTION 781 EXTENSION.
Until December 11, 2026, the amendments made by section 781 of
division B of Public Law 119-37 (7 U.S.C. 1639o note) shall only apply
with respect to products described in paragraphs (1)(C)(ii)(I) and
(1)(C)(iv)(I) of section 297A of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946
(7 U.S.C. 1639o) (as amended by such section 781).
BannedDEA treats HHC and any THC made by chemically converting hemp CBD (most delta-8/delta-10, THC-O, HHC products) as Schedule I synthetic THC; don't ship them anywhere in the US.

Hexahydrocannabinol is currently controlled in
schedule I as a tetrahydrocannabinol.
...
Thus, only tetrahydrocannabinols in or derived from the cannabis
plant--not synthetic tetrahydrocannabinols--are excluded from control
as ``tetrahydrocannabinols in hemp.'' To clarify further,
tetrahydrocannabinols produced through chemical conversion, even when
hemp derived are considered synthetically produced for purposes of the
CSA, do not qualify as ``tetrahydrocannabinols in hemp'' under the AIA.
BannedDon't mail THCA flower or synthetic/converted-cannabinoid products by USPS: Pub 52 allows hemp only if it meets the federal hemp definition and every applicable law, and keeps tracking any 'successor' definition.

L.115-334 (7 U.S.C. § 1639o), or any successor provision. Hemp and hemp-based products, including cannabidiol (CBD) with the tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) concentration of such hemp (or its derivatives) not exceeding a 0.3 percent limit are permitted to be mailed domestically only when the mailer:
Complies with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, including U.S. Department of Agriculture approved plans for hemp production, processing, distribution, and sales (7 CFR Part 990).
Retains records establishing compliance with such laws and plans, including laboratory test results, licenses, or compliance reports, for no less than 3 years after the date of mailing.
Shipments of hemp and hemp-based products, including CBD, are prohibited in international mail, including items for delivery to overseas Army Post Office, Fleet Post Office, and Diplomatic Post Office addresses (APO/FPO/DPO).

Hemp and CBD
BannedFDA's position is that CBD or THC foods, drinks and dietary supplements cannot lawfully be shipped across state lines, so interstate online sales of CBD/THC gummies, beverages or supplements are federally prohibited.
Exact text
9. Can THC or CBD products be sold as dietary supplements?
A. No. Based on available evidence, FDA has concluded that THC and CBD products are excluded from the dietary supplement definition under section 201(ff)(3)(B) of the FD&C Act [21 U.S.C. § 321(ff)(3)(B)].
...
10. Is it legal, in interstate commerce, to sell a food (including any animal food or feed) to which THC or CBD has been added?
A. No. Under section 301(ll) of the FD&C Act [21 U.S.C. § 331(ll)], it is prohibited to introduce or deliver for introduction into interstate commerce any food (including any animal food or feed) to which has been added a substance which is an active ingredient in a drug product that has been approved under section 505 of the FD&C Act [21 U.S.C. § 355], or a drug for which substantial clinical investigations have been instituted and for which the existence of such investigations has been made public.
