Full Details

CBD oil with THC content under 0.2% may be lawfully posted within the UK and from EU member states; international parcels from outside the EU/UK must list the cannabinoid profile and a Certificate of Analysis. Royal Mail's prohibited list bars all cannabis-derived products that exceed the 1mg/container controlled cannabinoid limit. Above-threshold parcels are intercepted by the National Crime Agency at international mail centres.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Include a certificate of analysis showing THC content below 1mg per container. Label clearly as 'food supplement'.
