CBD Oil in Alaska|Updated Guidelines

Is CBD legal in Alaska? The short answer is yes! Today we’re exploring CBD Oil in Alaska|Updated Guidelines.

When it comes to cannabis, Alaska is one of the States with liberal laws.

When the 2018 Farm Bill was amended to remove hemp from the Controlled Substances Act, it was reclassified as an agricultural crop.

This made it legal for US residents to legally grow.

However, if you are in the possession of cannabis on federal property like national parks, this is considered illegal in Alaska.

Like most states, it was up to Alaska to decide whether they would adapt to the new federal law or set their own restrictions on hemp challenging the regulations. Hence, Alaska changed its state hemp laws to those of the 2018 Farm Bill.

For consumers, this can be challenging when trying to find a quality CBD oil.

As long as you know a few key and important factors, you’ll be able to find CBD oil that works for you!

As far as the current laws and legislation go in Alaska, here is what we know:

CBD Oil in Alaska|Updated Guidelines

The law requires that CBD should be sourced from industrial hemp, preferably the stalks and seeds of the plant.

As in many States, the oil should have no more than 0.3% THC.

Currently, and as per the FDA, it is illegal to add CBD to food and beverages to be sold in the retail market.

Also, based on the Federal laws, Alaskan consumers need to be 18 years of age to purchase CBD Oil, and other CBD products.

The growth, cultivation, production, marketing, and sale of industrial hemp remain illegal in Alaska until the final regulations can be adopted into law.

You don’t need a medical marijuana card to buy CBD oil products and it IS legal to purchase CBD oil from other States online.

Patients with medical marijuana cards enjoy certain perks like higher possession limits, lower sale taxes, as well as access to a broader range of marijuana-infused products.

Why You Should Buy CBD Oil Online?

Considering that CBD oil in Alaska can only *currently* be imported from other states or sold in shops that have been licensed by the state to sell CBD oil, it is much safer to purchase CBD oil products online.

Buying CBD oil online will allow you to make sure that you purchase CBD products that are regulated, tested, and safe from the comfort of your home or couch!

Buying CBD Legally

CBD Broad Spectrum or CBD Isolate, which contain zero traces of CBD are your best buds here.

Broad Spectrum simply means that there is zero THC ( the psychoactive compound that gets you ‘high’) and some terpenes are not extracted.

Terpenes are natural chemicals found on the cannabis plant responsible for aroma and taste like limonene (lemon) and myrcene – which can be found in hops and has a peppery, spicy, balsam fragrance – like in beer!

They can make edibles taste wonderful, especially when you’re cooking.

CBD Isolate is CBD in it’s purest form, without any terpenes extracted whatsoever.

The 0.3 % law goes the same for CBD products like oils, gummies, topicals, or dog treats – they all need to adhere to the 0.3% rule, so to speak.

Where To Purchase CBD In Alaska

  • Glaucoma
  • Immune deficiency syndrome
  • Positive status for HIV

What about Traveling Across States With CBD?

The type of CBD oil that’s derived from hemp oil is what’s legal at a federal level (as of the 2018 Farm Bill) and therefore allowed to be taken across state borders, and, yes, on flights.

Can I Order CBD Gummies From Another State?

According to the laws, If the THC percentage is below 0.3 percent, it is ok to order CBD from any other U.S state, because it falls under the “hemp” category.
