Thai industrial hemp THC threshold (regulatory)
0.2% THC (above-ground parts)
Thai regulations permit industrial hemp cultivation where above-ground plant parts contain no more than 0.2% THC by dry weight — aligned with EU hemp standards. The threshold was established in 2022 ministerial notifications under the Narcotic Plants Act. Farmers must register with provincial agricultural offices; seeds must come from government-approved or licensed suppliers. Fibre hemp and hemp seed oil production are the principal legal end-uses.
