The short answer
CBD is illegal in the Marshall Islands. Title 41 of the Marshall Islands Revised Code does not exempt cannabidiol from cannabis scheduling, and the Ministry of Health and Human Services has not registered any cannabinoid medicine.
CBD oils, capsules, and topicals are treated as cannabis-derived controlled substances at the border. The Majuro Hospital and Ebeye Hospital, the country's two main healthcare facilities, do not stock cannabinoid products, and procurement through US-based suppliers does not extend to cannabis derivatives. Travelers arriving from Honolulu, Guam, or Manila have had CBD products seized at Amata Kabua International Airport.
