On January 25, 2021, the Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) published a ministerial regulation allowing for the commercial production and use of hemp. The importation of hemp and hemp products, however, is limited to government agencies for medical and research purposes for five years until January 2026. The Thai government has encouraged the private sector to focus on hemp to create economic value from it.
