The Detail

What the current Iowa rules actually say.

Kratom is currently legal in Iowa, but a ban remains pending. House File 2133, which would classify mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine as Schedule I controlled substances, passed the Iowa House 69-26 on March 17, 2026. A failed amendment that would have created a regulated KCPA framework was defeated 44-51. Senate companion SF 2192 was reported out of committee and placed on the Senate calendar under unfinished business on March 19, 2026 (Senate amendment S-5174 filed April 8, 2026), but did not receive a floor vote before the 2026 session adjourned. Both bills carry over and may be taken up in the 2027 session.

Local exceptions: None currently, but statewide ban pending Senate action.
