No. CBD oil remains illegal in Indonesia under the 1997 Narcotics Law, which classifies all cannabis-derived products—including CBD—with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) content exceeding 0.1% as narcotics. The National Narcotics Agency (BNN) enforces this prohibition, and no exceptions exist for medical or industrial use. Recent 2026 draft amendments to the Narcotics Law propose stricter penalties for cannabis-related offenses, reinforcing the ban.
Key Regulations for CBD Oil in Indonesia
- Narcotics Law No. 35/2009 (amended 2026 draft): CBD oil is classified as a narcotic if derived from Cannabis sativa or related species, regardless of THC content.
- BNN Circular No. 01/2021: Prohibits the import, distribution, and possession of CBD products, including those labeled “THC-free.”
- Customs Regulation (PMK No. 110/2021): Seizes CBD oil at ports, citing violations of narcotics trafficking laws under the Ministry of Finance’s oversight.
Indonesia’s stance aligns with ASEAN-wide drug control policies, where cannabis remains a Schedule I substance. Exceptions for hemp-derived CBD with <0.1% THC do not apply due to the absence of hemp cultivation licenses. Violations carry penalties up to 15 years imprisonment under Article 111 of the Narcotics Law.
