Aruba's narcotics ordinance (Landsverordening verdovende middelen) prohibits cannabis in all forms, and no medical or hemp licensing program is operational despite the Bureau Medicinale Cannabis Aruba being announced in 2020-2021. User-quantity possession up to 5 grams is handled through prosecutor settlement hearings, while larger amounts carry one to five years' imprisonment. No seed-specific exemption exists, and agricultural hemp seed rules could not be verified from available sources.
