Kratom Control Act; enact.
SB 2734, the Kratom Control Act, requires businesses selling kratom products in Mississippi to obtain a state-issued retail license ($250 annually per location) and post clear signage stating "No person under 21 may purchase." It mandates age verification for all sales (requiring ID for anyone under 27), establishes random unannounced inspections by the Mississippi Department of Revenue, and creates a program funded by license fees to train vendors on responsible sales practices. Violations, such as selling without a license or failing to post signage, can result in fines or license suspension. The law directly affects kratom retailers, distributors, and consumers under 21.
