Taking cannabis seeds out of Belgium
Cannabis seed export from Belgium is generally prohibited or heavily restricted regardless of domestic hemp / cannabis legal status.
Details
Many jurisdictions treat viable cannabis seeds as controlled cannabis material under the Loi du 24 février 1921 (drogues) framework. Even where domestic hemp cultivation is legal, cross-border seed export typically requires origin-country export permit and destination import permit. CBD-strain seeds may face slightly lighter treatment.
Quantity limits
Any quantity typically requires advance authorisation
Documentation required
- Schengen Article 75 certificate if viable seeds; strain COA showing THC content
