THCA Laws in Arkansas β Full Breakdown
Arkansas enacted Act 934 in 2025, which caps all hemp products at 1mg total THC per container. This law was intended to eliminate the THCA flower market in the state, and the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld Arkansas's authority to enact these restrictions.
Despite these restrictions, major hemp operators continue to ship THCA flower to Arkansas customers as of 2025-2026. The practical enforcement reality is that state law has not translated into active prosecution of interstate hemp shipments. The market remains active, particularly for online orders.
Medical marijuana patients in Arkansas may access THCA flower through licensed dispensaries. For everyone else, the hemp-channel route exists in a contested legal environment. Chemically-derived cannabinoids including delta-8 and THC-O are classified as controlled substances under Arkansas law.

What Is THCA and Why Does Legality Matter?
THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is the raw, non-psychoactive form of THC found in fresh cannabis. Under the 2018 Farm Bill, hemp plants containing β€0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight are federally legal β regardless of THCA content. When THCA is smoked or vaped, heat converts it to psychoactive delta-9 THC through a process called decarboxylation.
Some states have added "total THC" standards that count THCA toward the THC limit. Others have banned smokable hemp specifically. The legal status of THCA varies by state and is subject to change as legislatures continue to address hemp regulations.
