The short answer
CBD is legal in Saint Lucia in regulated forms. The Ministry of Health and Wellness permits CBD products containing less than 0.3 percent THC through pharmacy channels and licensed wellness retailers, consistent with the broader CARICOM regional framework adopted following the 2018 CARICOM Regional Commission on Marijuana report.
Products must be registered with the Pharmacy and Poisons Board, and labeling must disclose THC content, CBD concentration, and country of origin. Imported CBD oils, capsules, and topicals are permitted with prior authorization from the Ministry of Health and Wellness. Vape products containing CBD remain restricted under the Tobacco Control Act 2017. No prescription is required for non-medical CBD wellness products under 0.3 percent THC.
