Minnesota, USA hemp laws: quick overview

Minnesota defines industrial hemp under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 18K, Section 2, as Cannabis sativa L. and derivatives containing delta‑9 THC concentration of not more than 0.3 % on a dry‑weight basis, measured as total potential THC (delta‑9 + THCA×0.877) ([mda.state.mn.us](https://www.mda.state.mn.us/es/node/100?utm_source=openai)). Under Minnesota Rules Chapter 9810.2101 (effective April 25, 2025), hemp‑derived consumer products must not exceed 0.3 % THC potency ([revisor.mn.gov](https://www.revisor.mn.gov/rules/9810.2101/version/2025-04-25T10%3A19%3A16-05%3A00?utm_source=openai)). Lower‑potency hemp edibles (LPHE) are regulated under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 342. Section 151.72 limits edible cannabinoid products to no more than 0.3 % THC by weight, with a maximum of 5 mg THC per serving and 50 mg per package (beverages limited to 10 mg per container) ([revisor.mn.gov](https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/2023/cite/151.72?utm_source=openai)). Hemp‑derived topical products are allowed under Chapter 342.66; they may contain CBD or CBG, require no license, but must not be inhaled, chewed, injected, or used internally ([revisor.mn.gov](https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/2025/cite/342/full?utm_source=openai)). Hemp seed must be accompanied by COAs verifying parent plants meet ≤ 0.3 % total THC; otherwise, seed is treated as adult‑use cannabis ([mda.state.mn.us](https://www.mda.state.mn.us/cannabis-seed?utm_source=openai)). Importing LPHE or hemp‑derived consumer products into Minnesota requires a license under Chapter 342 ([revisor.mn.gov](https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/342/full?utm_source=openai)). Growers and processors must be licensed under Chapter 18K; records including COAs must be retained for 3 years ([mda.state.mn.us](https://www.mda.state.mn.us/es/node/100?utm_source=openai)).

Shipping guidance

Inbound shipments of hemp or hemp‑derived products into Minnesota require proper licensing: LPHE or hemp‑derived consumer products must be imported under a Chapter 342 license ([revisor.mn.gov](https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/342/full?utm_source=openai)). Growers/processors must maintain COAs and bills of lading for out‑of‑state hemp and retain records for 3 years ([mda.state.mn.us](https://www.mda.state.mn.us/es/node/100?utm_source=openai)). Age verification: sale of LPHE and hemp‑derived consumer products is restricted to individuals 21 and older under Chapter 342 ([revisor.mn.gov](https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/2025/cite/342/full?utm_source=openai)). Retailer license required for sale of LPHE and hemp‑derived consumer products; topical products require no license ([revisor.mn.gov](https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/2025/cite/342/full?utm_source=openai)).

Testing & COA guidance

Lab testing is required: hemp must be tested for total THC (delta‑9 + THCA×0.877) to confirm ≤ 0.3 % total THC ([mda.state.mn.us](https://www.mda.state.mn.us/es/node/100?utm_source=openai)). COAs must accompany hemp seed and products, and records retained for 3 years ([mda.state.mn.us](https://www.mda.state.mn.us/cannabis-seed?utm_source=openai)). Minnesota Rules Chapter 1565 includes laboratory requirements (e.g., “Fit for Commerce” certification) though permanent rules pending ([revisor.mn.gov](https://www.revisor.mn.gov/rules/pdf/1565/2024-01-30%2015%3A23%3A05%2B00%3A00?utm_source=openai)).
