Question 4

Will hemp products be legal in Alabama after November 2026?

Accepted Answer

Section 781 of H.R. 5371 (the Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2026, Pub. L. 119-37), signed November 12, 2025 and effective November 12, 2026, imposes a 0.4 mg total-THC-per-container cap that sits far below Alabama's HB 445 limit of 10 mg per serving. The enacted federal cap eliminates the edible, tincture, and beverage products HB 445 preserved, leaving Alabama's licensed hemp-dispensary channel with almost no compliant inventory.
