French CBD industry regulatory proposals
Overview
French Senator Guillaume Gontard has introduced legislative proposals to establish a more stable regulatory framework for the cannabidiol (CBD) sector. The initiative aims to address what Gontard describes as “complete legal insecurity” following years of shifting regulations, including a 2021 ban on flower and leaf sales and a 2026 ban on food-based CBD due to European Novel Food regulations.
The proposed measures focus on strengthening the production, traceability, and distribution of CBD products. Specific components of the proposal include the creation of a computerized hemp grower registry. Under these rules, producers would be required to declare product varieties, stock volumes, and the number of plots used, while importers would be mandated to provide documentation regarding the origin, volume, and variety of products. Non-compliance with these declaration requirements could lead to administrative fines.
