Cannabis regulation worldwide

The approach to cannabis is different in almost every country in the world, there is no common policy and every country approaches this topic differently. The rules distinguish between hemp seeds, the cultivation of hemp plants, their processing and the final products. A distinction is also made between so-called technical (industrial) hemp and other types of cannabis, and each country defines these categories in its own way. This area is quite turbulent and keeps changing, which is why this column is here: in blog posts we follow the development of regulation and the cannabis market in individual countries.

Cannabis regulation is still a widely discussed topic, as the different attitudes of states across the world show. In recent years, this plant has become known to the general public mainly due to the popularization of hemp products, such as products with CBD, CBG and others.
