How to Sell CBD on Amazon

All listings and products on Amazon must comply with all laws and regulations, including Federal and State laws. Amazon prohibits the listing and sale of ingestible hemp products that contain CBD and other cannabinoids, including lozenges, e-liquids, sprays, and oils.

 If you create a listing for ingestible hemp products selling CBD on Amazon and other cannabinoids, your listing will be removed, and your account may be permanently suspended. 

The only ingestible hemp products that are allowed to be listed and sold on Amazon are products that contain cold-pressed hemp seed oil from the Cannabis sativa plant and that do not contain CBD, THC, or any cannabinoids. 

All products derived from cold-press hemp seed oil which do not contain CBD, THC, or any cannabinoids must be compliant with Amazon policy; the ingredients must be attributed correctly and be described appropriately. 

How to Sell in the Amazon CBD Market?

According to the Listing Guidelines for Cannabidiol (CBD) and Hemp Products in the United Kingdom:

To sell these products, you must meet all of the requirements below and listed on Amazon’s Drugs, Drug Paraphernalia, and Dietary Supplements Seller Policy Page.

• Products must clearly state in the Ingredients field that they contain only hemp seed oil.

• Hemp gummies and other similar hemp products, including those containing only hemp seed oil, are prohibited by Amazon policy.

• Products may not include prohibited health or medicinal claims. See the Prohibited Product Claims page for further information.

• Products will also be removed if there is any indication on the listing that the product contains an extract of the hemp plant other than the seeds. This includes misleading marketing claims such as:

• Full or Broad Spectrum claims

• % strength claims (where it is not clear what ingredient the % refers to)

• Claims relating to CO2 and other extraction methods of cannabinoids

• References to CB1 and CB2 receptors

If you do not meet these requirements, your listing will be removed.
