Alabama, USA hemp laws: quick overview

Alabama defines industrial hemp under ADAI Administrative Code Rule 80‑10‑21‑.02 (effective October 15, 2020) as Cannabis sativa L. with total delta‑9‑THC ≤ 0.3% on a dry weight basis ([ams.usda.gov](https://www.ams.usda.gov/sites/default/files/media/AlabamaHempPlan.pdf?utm_source=openai)). Rule 80‑10‑21‑.14 explicitly prohibits shipping or transporting hemp products exceeding 0.3% total delta‑9‑THC ([admincode.legislature.state.al.us](https://admincode.legislature.state.al.us/administrative-code/80-10-21-.14?utm_source=openai)). Effective July 1, 2025, HB 445 (codified in Code of Alabama Title 28 Chapter 12, § 28‑12‑2) bans all smokable hemp products—including flower, vapes, pre‑rolls—as “unlawful hemp products” ([law.justia.com](https://law.justia.com/codes/alabama/title-28/chapter-12/article-1/section-28-12-2/?utm_source=openai)). Starting January 1, 2026, consumable hemp products (edibles, tinctures, topicals) may only be sold by retailers licensed by the Alabama ABC Board under Title 28 Ch. 12‑45 ([alabcboard.gov](https://alabcboard.gov/licensing-compliance/hemp?utm_source=openai)). ADAI’s Agricultural Compliance Section currently prohibits use of hemp products in animal feed under Code § 2‑21‑25 and Admin Rule 80‑1‑5.03 ([agi.alabama.gov](https://agi.alabama.gov/agcompliance/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2022/04/Ag-Comp-Hemp-Letter.pdf?utm_source=openai)).

Shipping guidance

Inbound shipments of hemp products must comply with the 0.3% delta‑9 THC limit. Smokable hemp shipments are prohibited. Consumable hemp shipments must be to ABC‑licensed retailers only; direct‑to‑consumer shipping is not allowed under § 28‑12‑2.

Testing & COA guidance

ADAI requires testing for total delta‑9‑THC on a dry weight basis per Rule 80‑10‑21‑.02. Laboratories must follow ADAI sampling and testing protocols; ISO 17025 accreditation is not explicitly stated. COAs should reflect total delta‑9‑THC and be retained per ADAI licensing rules (forms and procedures available via ADAI hemp resources) ([agi.alabama.gov](https://agi.alabama.gov/hemp/resources/?utm_source=openai)).

What to buy

Consumable hemp products (edibles, tinctures, topicals, beverages) sold by ABC‑licensed retailers are legal. Hemp-derived CBD products under 0.3% delta‑9 THC remain legal in non‑smokable forms.

What to avoid

Smokable hemp products—including flower, pre‑rolls, vapes—are banned. Hemp-derived cannabinoids synthesized chemically (e.g., delta‑8, delta‑10 via chemical conversion) are prohibited under § 28‑12‑2. Hemp in animal feed is not allowed.

How to shop compliant, tested hemp

  • Delta‑9 THC must not exceed 0.3% dry weight per ADAI Rule 80‑10‑21‑.02/‑.14.
  • Smokable hemp products (flower, vapes, pre‑rolls) are banned as of July 1, 2025 under Code § 28‑12‑2.
  • Consumable hemp products require a license from the Alabama ABC Board effective January 1, 2026 (Title 28 Ch. 12).
