Thailand’s health ministry has delayed new cannabis regulations by 30–60 days after backlash from sellers and stakeholders. The rules will require prescriptions for cannabis purchases, licensed premises to employ medical staff, and retailers to log all flower sales. Growers must meet strict cultivation standards, and buds will soon be treated as controlled substances requiring permits. The delay aims to allow more consultation and preparation, but businesses must still submit monthly stock reports or risk penalties. Personal cultivation for non-commercial use remains legal, but selling homegrown cannabis is banned. Future violations could lead to jail time and fines.

Are we certain the delay to the regulations is official.

Did the Health Ministry actually make and post an official statement?

Two vendors I sent this too just now said the same thing, "it is a new law today, lots of rumors like this online"

Good times.
