What it takes to import and sell MIT extract in the markets we serve. For every country, see shipping restrictions.
Regulated
Kratom leaf and mitragynine are not federally scheduled. DEA has proposed temporary Schedule I for 7-OH and mitragynine pseudoindoxyl above 1 mg/g, or where the mitragynine-to-(7-OH + MP) ratio is below 100. FDA does not consider kratom lawful in food, supplements or drugs, and Import Alert 54-15 allows detention of imports. State laws vary.
