Is delta-8 legal in Florida?

Being verified

Not yet verified: Florida's hemp law covers all hemp cannabinoids and isomers, but its Schedule I list also names delta-8 THC, and no official page settles which rule wins for hemp-derived delta-8, delta-10 or THCP.

  • Bills that would have excluded delta-8, delta-10 and THCP from hemp extract failed in 2025 (SB 438) and 2026 (SB 1270).
  • Federal law ends hemp status for converted cannabinoids like delta-8 on December 11, 2026; THC-O type cannabinoids lose it on November 12, 2026.

Is THCA flower legal in Florida?

Legal with limits

Only if it tests at 0.3% total delta-9 THC or less. Florida's hemp extract rule counts THCA in total THC (delta-9 + 0.877 x THCA), so most high-THCA flower and pre-rolls do not qualify.

  • Sales are 21+ with proof of age required.
  • Flower above the limit is not hemp under Florida law and is treated as cannabis.

Are hemp vapes legal in Florida?

Legal with limits

Yes, with conditions. Hemp extract for inhalation is legal in Florida at 0.3% total delta-9 THC or less, but only for adults 21 and older, with proof of age required.

  • Carts with delta-8, THCA or other THC lose federal hemp status by December 11, 2026.

Buying and carrying CBD in Florida

Buying CBD online in Florida

Florida's hemp statute does not set separate rules for buying CBD online. FDACS's hemp extract rule bars mailing, shipping or delivering inhalable hemp products unless the seller first confirms the buyer is 21 or older. Any hemp extract sold in Florida must have a batch certificate of analysis, a QR code or barcode linked to it and child-resistant packaging.

Traveling with CBD in Florida

Florida law excludes hemp at 0.3% total delta-9 THC or less from its definition of cannabis, so compliant CBD is legal to carry. THCA flower or other products that test above that limit are not hemp under Florida law.
