The Poisons, Opium and Dangerous Drugs Ordinance (as amended) expressly provides that no hemp plant, or its seeds, pods, leaves or flowers, may be imported into or exported from Sri Lanka, and it criminalises unlicensed cultivation and sale. A narrow exception flows from the Ayurveda Act No. 31 of 1961, under which registered practitioners may access cannabis through Ministry of Health licences for traditional medicine, and government proposals since 2017 have contemplated state-supervised plantations for that supply chain.
