Taking cannabis seeds out of Iceland

STATUS · RESTRICTED

Cannabis seed export from Iceland 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 Lög um ávana- og fíkniefni nr. 65/1974; Schengen Convention Art. 75 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 (via EEA membership) if viable seeds; strain COA showing THC content
