Know the Rules Before You Order
A plain-language 2026 map of U.S. federal status, state restrictions, and Canada — with sources and links to official documents.
Federal status (United States)
In July 2026 the Drug Enforcement Administration filed two notices in the Federal Register. The first concerns 7-hydroxymitragynine above a stated threshold: processed or synthetic products containing more than 1.00 mg of 7-OH per article (or over 0.05%) are targeted for temporary Schedule I placement; the temporary scheduling order would take effect on publication after the notice period and could issue any day. The second notice covered three related synthetic compounds — mitragynine pseudoindoxyl, MGM-15, and MGM-16 — which were placed in Schedule I by a final temporary order effective August 26, 2026. Natural botanical kratom below the threshold is not covered by the federal action. Official sources: the DEA notice (July 1, 2026), the Federal Register notice of intent, and the August 26, 2026 final order. Our plain-language tracker is here: 2026 federal status update.
States that ban kratom outright (2026)
According to 2026 trackers, statewide kratom prohibitions or commercial sales bans exist in Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, North Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont, and Wisconsin, with California under a CDPH-led commercial sales action. Effective dates differ — for example Kansas and Tennessee bans took effect July 1, 2026, and Massachusetts followed by emergency order in August 2026. Do not order from these states.
States that restrict concentrated 7-OH while leaf remains legal
Florida scheduled concentrated 7-OH (2025), Ohio restricted isolated/synthetic 7-OH (May 2026), and Virginia restricted concentrated products effective July 1, 2026; Colorado and South Carolina also apply specific controls. Dozens of cities and counties (for example in Mississippi, Illinois, and Florida) maintain local bans even within legal states. The American Kratom Association and state boards of pharmacy publish current lists.
KCPA-regulated states
States operating under Kratom Consumer Protection Act frameworks (such as Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Oklahoma, and Utah) require age limits, labeling, and testing and often restrict synthetic alkaloids. Ultra Seven’s 21+ gate, exact labels, and third-party COAs are designed to exceed those expectations. See what the KCPA requires.
Canada
Kratom and its alkaloids are not scheduled under Canada’s Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, but Health Canada has not authorized them for sale as food, natural health products, or drugs, and selling them for human consumption is prohibited; enforcement includes seizures of ingestible products. Because Ultra Seven products are explicitly flavored chewables and dissolving strips for ingestion, we do not ship to Canada.
What this means at checkout
Ultra Seven sells to adults 21+ at U.S. addresses where concentrated 7-OH products are currently lawful, and we reserve the right to cancel orders that would violate law or carrier policy. By checking out you confirm age, location, and legal receipt. When a federal or state restriction changes, the catalog and checkout are adjusted accordingly.
