Taking cannabis seeds out of Pakistan
Cannabis seed export from Pakistan 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 Control of Narcotic Substances Act 1997 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
- DRAP (Pakistan) authorisation if viable seeds; strain COA showing THC content
