District of Columbia Kratom Legal Status Update

January 16, 2026Source: legislation

Kratom was temporarily restricted in 2016 but reversed in 2018. As of 2025, it is legal to possess and purchase, but exists within a regulatory framework focused on product oversight and consumer safety, making it a regulated jurisdiction.

Multiple sources confirm that while Kratom was restricted in 2016, this was reversed in 2018, and it is currently legal but regulated in D.C.. The 'regulated' aspect aligns with a 'RESTRICTED' status, rather than 'BANNED' as previously listed.
