Natural leaf kratom remains legal statewide in Wyoming for adults 21 and older, though state regulations strictly target synthetically modified derivatives and high-potency extracts.
Statewide Legal & Regulatory Status
- Age Restrictions & Retail Controls: Under state law (including SF0056), retailers are prohibited from selling kratom products to individuals under 21 years of age.
- Synthetic Extracts & 7-OH Restrictions: State measures explicitly ban sales of adulterated products, synthetic alkaloid additives, and isolated 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) formulations.
- Prohibition Proposals: Total prohibition bills (such as HB0185) have been introduced in the state legislature to propose scheduling kratom, though natural leaf remains permitted under regulatory guidelines.
City and County Status in Wyoming
- No Municipal/County Bans: There are currently no individual city or county bans on kratom in Wyoming (including Cheyenne, Casper, Laramie, or Jackson).
- Uniform State Standard: Local municipalities and county health authorities rely directly on state statutory age controls (21+) and retail compliance checks targeting unapproved synthetic extracts.
