Kratom laws in Louisville, Kentucky
As of April 2026, Kentucky enacted HB757, which repealed the 2024 Kratom Consumer Protection Act and prohibits the sale, distribution, and possession of kratom and its primary alkaloids statewide, including Louisville. Pre-2026 rules had set a 21+ age gate and product standards, but those have been superseded by the ban. There is no separate Louisville city ordinance because state law controls and eliminates the legal retail market.
With kratom now prohibited statewide, previously common outlets such as smoke shops, gas stations, vape stores, and botanical shops are no longer permitted to sell it in Louisville.
