Is Kratom Legal in Kansas?

PENDING

Last verified: March 16, 2026

Senate Bill 497 (SB 497), which aims to classify both kratom and 7-hydroxymitragynine as Schedule I controlled substances, was introduced and referred to the Senate Ways and Means Committee after a committee hearing.

Kansas's previous status was 'RESTRICTED'. Senate Bill 497, introduced in February 2026, proposes to reclassify kratom as a Schedule I controlled substance, which would result in a statewide ban if enacted. This represents a clear shift towards a 'BANNED' status.
