Alaska Cannabis & Substances Laws (2026)

Alaska permits the possession and sale of hemp-derived CBD products under Alaska Statutes Title 17 and regulations by the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation. Products must contain less than 0.3% THC and comply with state labeling requirements.

Alaska allows the sale and possession of Delta-8 THC derived from hemp under state law. The Alaska Marijuana Control Board regulates cannabis products, but Delta-8 derived from hemp is not explicitly banned and is treated similarly to other hemp cannabinoids under Alaska Statutes Title 17.

Hemp-derived Delta-9 THC edibles are illegal in Alaska. The state does not recognize the federal hemp distinction and treats all THC products as controlled substances.

Kratom is legal in Alaska, with no specific state laws banning or regulating it. There are no restrictions on possession or sale under Alaska state law.

Psilocybin mushrooms remain illegal under Alaska state law (AS 11.71.900). However, in 2021, Anchorage voters decriminalized possession and use of psilocybin mushrooms, making it the lowest law enforcement priority locally. State law still prohibits possession and sale.

Recreational marijuana is legal for adults 21+ in Alaska. No major legislative changes to recreational marijuana laws since its legalization.

Salvia divinorum is not a controlled substance in Alaska and is legal to possess, sell, and use. No significant legislative changes since the failure of a bill to schedule Salvia in 2006.
