Is THCA legal?

THCA in Sweden

The question we often get is whether THCA is legal in Sweden. THCA is an acid form of THC, the most well-known cannabinoid in cannabis, which in Sweden is classified as a narcotic and is subject to its laws. THCA is non-psychoactive, which means that it does not cause the effects usually associated with THC. THCA is found in fresh cannabis leaves and flowers and is formed when cannabis grows.

Is THCA legal in Sweden?

THCA is not directly classified as a narcotic in itself, but it can be considered illegal in connection with cannabis products that contain THC. Since THCA is converted to THC by heating, products that contain THCA but can also give rise to THC are in practice illegal. This means that it is completely legal to possess THCA in its raw form, but it may not be decarboxylated/burned/vaporized as it is converted to the narcotic cannabinoid THC. Therefore, always store your THCA products in, for example, a refrigerator to ensure that you do not violate applicable laws and save receipts and packaging so that you can always show that you have purchased a legal product.
