District-wide rule

7-OH scheduled by regulation; leaf status is legally unclear

D.C. regulations list 7-OH as Schedule I, while the statutory schedule does not clearly address mitragynine.

The January 2026 legal review flags a conflict between the statutory and regulatory schedules. Treat D.C. shipments as counsel-review territory rather than assuming ordinary natural leaf is permitted.

Municipal, county-equivalent, territorial-agency, or tribal rules may regulate sales without banning possession or may target specific product forms such as concentrated 7-OH.

No local kratom-specific rule was identified in this review.

That is not a guarantee that none exists. Municipal codes, local health orders, territorial agencies, tribal rules, zoning, general food law, and new enactments may still affect the exact address.
