🇫🇷CBD-groothandel in Frankrijk

In France, hemp products are permitted up to 0.3% THC: flowers and resins have been freely sold since the Council of State annulled their ban at the end of 2022. Ingestible extracts (oils, food supplements), however, remain blocked pending an EU "Novel Food" authorisation — only cosmetic and non-food uses are open, and controls on foods tightened in spring 2026.
