What the current Washington rules actually say.
Kratom is legal in Washington state with no statewide age limit or registration requirement. In the 2026 session, three state bills (HB 2291 KCPA, SB 6196 95% distributor tax, SB 6287 7-OH cap and 21+ rule) all failed to advance before policy cutoff. In the absence of state regulation, several cities have enacted local sales bans, including Spokane (effective April 8, 2026), Othello (effective May 1, 2026), and Warden (April 2026). On July 1, 2026, the Ephrata City Council voted 6-1 to prohibit the sale, distribution, and advertising of kratom and kratom-derived products within city limits, effective 60 days after passage. Violations are civil infractions carrying escalating fines from roughly $248 to $1,294, and repeat violators may have business licenses revoked or denied. Ephrata is the fourth city in Grant County to adopt such restrictions.
