Rhode Island Kratom Legal Status Update
As of 2026, kratom is listed as 'fully illegal' in Rhode Island, classifying it as a controlled substance. While a bill was passed to reverse a previous ban and establish regulation, that regulation is slated to begin in April 2026, indicating a current status of prohibition.
Conflicting information exists regarding Rhode Island's status. While one source indicates a bill passed to reverse a ban and establish regulation starting April 2026, another source from 2026 states it is 'fully illegal' and a controlled substance. Prioritizing the more definitive 'fully illegal' status for the current time (pre-April 2026 regulation) and interpreting 'controlled substance' as a ban, the status is considered BANNED, which is a change from the prompt's 'RESTRICTED'.
