Review flag: this record is more than 30 days old. Use the linked sources for the latest official position.

Current state posture

Intoxicating hemp effectively banned NOW: SB903 (eff 7/1/23) uses total-THC formula (0.877) ≤0.3% + 2mg total-THC/package cap + synthetic prohibition. Enforced by VDACS w/ penalties up to $10K/day.

Recent movement

No new statute in 30d; 2026 changes (25:1 removal 8/15, CCA transfer, 11/1 VCPA prohibition) enacted earlier, pending effective dates.

Litigation and court posture

N. Virginia Hemp & Agriculture v. Virginia: SB903 UPHELD by 4th Cir 1/7/25 (preemption & Commerce Clause rejected). In force, NOT blocked.

Federal change scheduled for November 12, 2026

State rules are only one layer. Unless Congress changes the enacted provision, Section 781 changes the federal hemp definition to total THC—Delta-9 THC plus 0.877 times THCA—and adds a 0.4 milligram total-THC-per-container cap beginning November 12, 2026. That federal change is separate from the Virginia posture above.
