Are CBD Gummies Legal?
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is legal as long as it meets two of the following conditions:
- It's sourced from hemp
- It contains 0.3% or less THC
To be clear, CBD and THC (the psychedelic compound) are different cannabinoids. Both are sourced from hemp, which was legalized in 2018.
Many CBD gummies, like our Eve's Sour Apple, are THC-free, which means there's zero risk of you ingesting any illegal amounts of THC.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) urges caution when using CBD, as many companies use impurities when extracting their CBD.
States That Don't Allow CBD Gummies
While legal federally, each state has its unique laws when it comes to CBD. What that means is that you can buy CBD products online, but be wary of which state you plan to travel to when using CBD gummies.
States essentially put 'restrictions' on how, where, and what type of CBD you can use. For example, the CBD you buy from in Delaware must be sourced in-state. Most states, however, allow CBD gummies, especially if they're THC-free.
States with the highest restrictions include:
- Alabama
- Georgia
- Idaho
- Indiana
- Iowa
- Kentucky
- South Carolina
- Tennessee
- Wisconsin
- Wyoming
Countries That Don't Allow CBD Gummies
While traveling abroad, check first to see what countries don't allow CBD in any form - even THC-free products. While some restrictions apply, many European countries allow for the use and travel of CBD gummies. Australia and Canada also have pretty relaxed rules regarding CBD gummies.
Like the U.S., each country has restrictions and limitations on the type of CBD you're using. Other countries require you to have a medical prescription to use 
CBD. CBD is heavily monitored in Asia, and you may be severely punished for carrying any hemp-based product.
If you plan on traveling to South America, know that CBD is also heavily monitored there. You may have an easier time traveling to Columbia, however, as the government looks to legalize all forms of cannabis.
Countries to consider leaving your CBD gummies at home include the following:
- Belgium
- Russia (Do Not Tavel with CBD)!
- Slovakia
In particular, Russia is stringent regarding using CBD, even in THC-free gummies. Putin's government recently passed Resolution 681, which states that all derivatives of cannabis are considered illegal narcotics.
Can I Take CBD Gummies on a Plane Ride?
Yes, CBD is legal to bring on a plane in many places - as long as it's sourced from hemp. While each State and Country have restrictions, CBD is generally safe to travel on a plane with. As always, check the state or country you're flying to before bringing your CBD gummies on board.
Transporting CBD gummies on U.S. flights will be much easier and less risky than on international flights. If you plan on traveling by plane, you might need to screen your CBD gummies at baggage check or with the TSA.
TSA Guidelines for CBD
The TSA, or Transportation Security Administration, are the folks who monitor all flight boardings. If your CBD gummies are under 0.3% THC, there shouldn't be any worries about getting arrested. According to TSA guidelines, you can travel to any state with CBD - as long as it's sourced from hemp.
How To Tell If Your CBD's Illegal
Of course, all these rules beg the question - How do I know if my CBD gummies are illegal?
The FDA does not regulate CBD, so you, the consumer, need to do your due diligence before purchasing - especially if you're flying. Two factors will best help you avoid buying illegal CBD.
Marijuana vs. Hemp
When buying CBD, first consider the source. Hemp-based CBD is legal. Why is that?
Hemp is one of two varieties of cannabis - marijuana being the other. Unlike marijuana, hemp is low in THC, the compound responsible for getting you high.
After 2018, the Federal Government makes a clear distinction between marijuana and hemp - even though their both forms of cannabis.
Lab Reports
So, how do I know if my CBD gummies are hemp-based? Great question - the devil is in the details. A lab report, or certificate of analysis, states precisely how much THC is in your CBD and how it's extracted and sourced and even includes your batch number.
Before you head out the door, consider printing out your lab report, usually found online. If your TSA agent suspects foul play, hand them the lab reports. It might also be helpful to print out the TSA guidelines for the agent as they may not be aware of CBD laws.
