The Detail

What the current New Hampshire rules actually say.

Kratom is legal in New Hampshire for individuals 18 and older. Senate Bill 557 would have classified synthetic and semisynthetic kratom as a controlled drug, and a House working group amended it on May 5, 2026 to target only high-dose products (kratom exceeding 1,000 parts per million of 7-hydroxymitragynine). The bill died at the end of the session: after the Senate passed its version, the House returned it with unrelated amendments, the Senate rejected those changes, and neither chamber requested a committee of conference. No statewide kratom restriction was enacted in 2026; plain leaf and existing products remain legal. A potency-cap bill is expected to return in a future session. Kratom is banned locally in Franklin.

Local exceptions: Banned in Franklin, NH. Statewide bill SB 557 died at the close of the 2026 session with no committee of conference; no statewide ban or potency cap was enacted.
