CBD in Germany
THC Limit: < 0.3%
Germany has a large and mature CBD market, with products being legal as long as their THC content does not exceed 0.3%. Our products, at <0.2% THC, are fully compliant. However, the regulatory landscape is nuanced, especially concerning CBD in food products.
Regulatory Environment
While CBD oils and cosmetics are widely available, the sale of CBD edibles is more complicated due to the EU Novel Food Regulation. Under this rule, CBD-infused foods require pre-market authorization, which many products do not have. This has led to some legal ambiguity and occasional raids on retailers selling edibles. The sale of CBD flower is also a grey area, often labeled as a raw material not intended for consumption to avoid legal trouble.
