Paraguay: CBD and cannabis regulation, May 2022

Hemp and CBD regulation in Paraguay may change in the foreseeable future because the country’s regulatory framework as it currently stands is quite fragmented and confusing, with multiple institutions involved setting out their own guidelines, making the procedure for obtaining hemp-related licences fairly troublesome.

As a result, some light needs to be shed to further clarify certain aspects of Paraguay’s regulatory framework. A proposal was put forward in the legislature to attempt to simplify the situation, but it has been stuck there for two years.

This report offers a comprehensive overview of the current regulatory framework for hemp, CBD and cannabis (medical and recreational), covering all areas from processing and cultivation to finished products, extracts, and imports/exports.
