Taking cbd oil out of Saudi Arabia

STATUS · PROHIBITED

CBD is a controlled substance in Saudi Arabia with no lawful personal possession, so there is no lawful export of CBD products.

Details

Saudi Arabia treats cannabidiol (CBD) and other cannabis derivatives as controlled substances under Anti-Narcotics Law (Royal Decree M/39), with no general personal-possession exemption for hemp-derived or low-THC products. Because lawful possession is not available to travellers, there is no personal-export pathway — CBD products found at departure screening are subject to seizure and the traveller to prosecution under the same narcotics framework that applies on entry. Travellers should not transit Saudi Arabia carrying CBD products of any THC content.
