Hemp 🇨🇿 Czechia

Czechia bans the semi-synthetic cannabinoid HHC

HHC had been sold openly in Czech shops, minors included, as a legal alternative to cannabis.[1] On 16 March 2026 the government moved it onto the list of banned addictive substances, so that selling and holding it became crimes, citing the UN's decision a year earlier to control it. At the same meeting it dropped a planned ban on kratom.[2]

Listed for context. No score change is recorded for Czechia here.
