Introduced Text

New Jersey Kratom Consumer Protection Act regulates kratom sales and distribution, sets age limits, and mandates product labeling.

The New Jersey Kratom Consumer Protection Act establishes regulations for the sale and distribution of kratom products. It defines "kratom" as the tropical evergreen Mitragyna speciosa, containing the alkaloid mitragynine. The act mandates that retailers disclose on the label the factual basis for representing a product as kratom and requires accurate labeling, including a recommended serving size. Retailers must perform a transaction scan of identification as a precondition for kratom purchases, denying transactions if the scan fails to match the identification.
