Taiwan: Hemp

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   TW2021-0033

Taiwan does not have a market for hemp products because cannabis is classified as a Class 2 narcotic. All drugs or products that contain tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) over 10ug/g (10ppm) are in the same class of narcotics. Taiwan’s Food and Drug Administration specifies that drugs containing cannabidiol (CBD) are allowed, but there are currently no domestic approved drugs with CBD content and there is no rule or law allowing for the sale of CBD related products and drugs in Taiwan. Therefore, Taiwan currently has very little to no potential for importing hemp or hemp related products.
