A 4222 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Creates "New Jersey Kratom Protection Act."

This bill, the "New Jersey Kratom Consumer Protection Act," regulates kratom products sold in New Jersey. It directly affects kratom retailers (businesses selling kratom) and consumers, requiring them to comply with specific safety and labeling rules. Key provisions include banning kratom products contaminated with dangerous substances (like certain drugs or solvents), limiting the alkaloid 7-hydroxymitragynine to under 2% of the product, mandating clear labeling of active ingredients and serving sizes, and prohibiting sales to anyone under 21 years old. The bill does not ban kratom but sets safety standards for its sale and labeling.
