HB 1553 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Mississippi Kratom Consumer Protection Act; create.

Mississippi HB 1553, the "Mississippi Kratom Consumer Protection Act," regulates kratom products by prohibiting sales to anyone under 21, banning products containing over 2% 7-hydroxymitragynine, and banning child-attractive packaging. It requires manufacturers to follow federal dietary supplement standards, mandates specific health warnings and ingredient disclosures on labels, and imposes a 5% excise tax on retail sales. Sellers must register with the FDA and face civil penalties up to $20,000 for violations, with local governments barred from adding stricter rules. The law directly affects kratom sellers, manufacturers, and consumers, aiming to standardize safety and labeling requirements statewide.
