CBD, CBG, CBN... Are they really legal in France? Yes, provided you follow certain strict rules. Find out what the law says in 2025 about these natural cannabinoids, their permitted THC levels, and the conditions for selling or consuming them safely.
Hemp is making a strong comeback, driven by molecules like CBD , CBG and CBN , known for their natural benefits without psychoactive effects.
But their legal status remains unclear for many. Is it legal? Can they be sold? And consumed freely?
At Herbeevor , we strive to be 100% transparent about the legality of our products. Here's everything you need to know about French regulations in 2025 .
CBD (cannabidiol) is authorized in France , under certain strict conditions:
✅ Made from EU-authorized hemp varieties
✅ The THC of the finished product must be less than 0.3%
✅ Products must not claim a therapeutic effect (except for drug marketing authorization)
✅ Laboratory testing must be available to ensure compliance
🔍 Please note: Since January 2022, hemp flowers and leaves are once again authorized for sale if they comply with the legal THC level.
CBG is also legal in France , under the same rules as CBD:
THC level < 0.3%
Origin from certified industrial hemp
No psychoactive effects
Non-medical product without therapeutic claim
💡 Since CBG is not classified as a narcotic and does not present any identified dangers, its sale is authorized in the form of a wellness supplement.
CBN is more sensitive from a regulatory point of view because it is derived from the degradation of THC , which can sometimes cause doubt.
However, in France:
✅ CBN is allowed as long as the THC in the product remains below 0.3%
✅ It is not classified as a narcotic by the ANSM
✅ It can be used in wellness products, without medical claims
At Herbeevor , all our CBN-based products are tested, traceable and formulated in compliance with French law.
🇫🇷 France: CBD, CBG, CBN authorized if THC ≤ 0.3%
🇩🇪 Germany: same rule, but increased vigilance on formats
🇪🇸 Spain: CBD authorized for external use only
🇮🇹 Italy: legal, but the sale of flowers is regulated
🇳🇱 Netherlands: Broader tolerance, but no official status
📌 In Europe, CBD is authorized in most countries , but its offer and labeling must be adapted to each market .
To legally sell CBD, CBG or CBN in France:
✅ Have laboratory analyses available (full spectra)
✅ Indicate the THC level and the origin of the hemp
✅ Be clear about the use: wellness supplement, not medicine
✅ Have up-to-date T&Cs and legal notices
✅ Do not target minors or make promises of healing
At Herbeevor, we fulfill all these obligations with rigor.
