Recent Updates for Minnesota
Minnesota Kratom Legal Status Update
| Bill | HF 3453 |
|---|---|
| Title | Minnesota's status was 'PENDING'. House File 3453 (HF 3453) was signed into law by Governor Tim Walz on May 5, 2026. This legislation establishes the legal age to possess kratom, or substances containing mitragynine or 7-hydroxymitragynine, as 21 years of age or older. It makes selling kratom to anyone under 21 a gross misdemeanor and unlawful possession by someone under 21 a misdemeanor. The new provisions are set to take effect on August 1, 2026. This represents a clear change from a 'PENDING' status to a 'RESTRICTED' status due to the age restriction and associated penalties. |
