Tennessee — HB1647 / SB1655 status update

About This Event

Tennessee currently restricts kratom sales (age 21+, synthetic 7-OH derivatives banned). House Bill 1647 and Senate Bill 1655, known as Matthew Davenport's Law, were introduced on February 8, 2026. These bills propose classifying kratom and its primary alkaloids as controlled substances, which would result in a statewide ban on possession and sale. This legislative action represents a potential shift from the current restricted status to a ban. The bills are currently in the committee stage.
