AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 16 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO KRATOM.

This Act requires that a person that prepares, distributes, sells, or advertises for sale a food that is represented to be a kratom product to disclose the factual basis on which the representation is made. It establishes prohibitions related to the preparation, distribution, sale, and advertisement of kratom products, including prohibiting the distribution or sale to individuals under the age of 21. It imposes civil violations on those who violate the prohibitions. It requires the Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Enforcement of the Department of Safety and Homeland Security, in collaboration with the Delaware Healthcare Association, to report to the General Assembly, on or before December 31, 2026, on the number of adverse health events observed in individuals after the use of opioid–like substances, including kratom; and generally relating to kratom.
