How It’s Used
The PSA 2016 is the primary legal reference point for discussions about kratom legality in the UK. Understanding this law helps you know precisely what is and is not permitted. UK consumers can legally possess kratom, but obtaining it through UK-based commercial channels is legally problematic for the supplier.
The distinction between the PSA (which governs kratom) and the Misuse of Drugs Act (which does not) is frequently highlighted in kratom advocacy. It underscores that UK regulators have not placed kratom in the same category as drugs like heroin, cocaine, or cannabis.
