Taking cannabis seeds out of Jamaica

Details

Many jurisdictions treat viable cannabis seeds as controlled cannabis material under the Dangerous Drugs Act 1948 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
