The rules

What the Florida rules actually say.

Legal under Florida's Kratom Consumer Protection Act: 21 and up, no synthetic kratom, no products adulterated with controlled substances. Concentrated 7-OH is a separate felony matter, and Sarasota County has banned kratom since 2014.

KCPA regulated on our map: the state has passed a Kratom Consumer Protection Act. Sales are legal but vendors must meet labeling, age, and product-quality requirements. Adulterated or synthetic-spiked products are prohibited.

What to watch

Leon County is drafting an ordinance aimed at concentrated and synthetic products such as 7-OH, due back November 17, 2026; whether it will reach natural leaf is undecided.

Full legal detail

Kratom is legal in Florida under the Kratom Consumer Protection Act (CS/HB 179, signed 2023), which sets the minimum sales age at 21 and prohibits synthetic kratom and products adulterated with controlled substances. In August 2025, Florida made it a felony to sell, possess, or distribute concentrated 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH). Two 2026 bills (SB 994 by Sen. Gruters and HB 1205) would have further expanded the KCPA with mandatory lab testing, FDACS permitting, mixing prohibitions with caffeine/alcohol/cannabinoids/kava, and school-buffer restrictions. Both stalled, with SB 994 dying in Commerce and Tourism on March 13, 2026.

Local exceptions. Sarasota County: kratom has been banned since 2014 and the county ban remains in effect despite the statewide KCPA. Ocala directed its city attorney on July 21, 2026 to draft a kratom sales-ban ordinance in coordination with Marion County, but the Marion County Commission declined to move forward on August 18, 2026, citing enforcement difficulty and pending federal action on concentrated 7-OH; that drafting effort is paused and nothing has been adopted. Leon County voted on October 13, 2026 to draft an ordinance aimed at concentrated and synthetic products such as 7-OH; nothing is adopted.
