New Jersey Kratom Legal Status Update

Source: legislation

Assembly Bill No. 5129, known as 'CJ's Law,' which would criminalize the manufacture, possession, and sale of kratom, was reported favorably by the Assembly Appropriations Committee in December 2025. A legislative committee also approved this law in June 2024. While not yet fully enacted, the legislative process indicates a strong move towards a statewide ban, transitioning its status from 'LEGAL' to 'PENDING'.

Recent legislative actions, including committee approval and favorable reporting of a bill specifically designed to criminalize kratom, indicate that a statewide ban is in an advanced 'PENDING' state, despite it currently being legal.
