Full details

Cannabis seeds are legal in the Netherlands and can be purchased in smart shops and online. However, exporting them to countries where they are illegal may constitute a drug trafficking offence in the destination country. Seeds themselves contain no THC.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Legal to buy in NL, but check the laws of your home country before purchasing. Many countries prohibit cannabis seeds.
