Proposals and limits of this check
This check covers the listed scheduling and possession provisions. It does not claim a complete search of pending legislation or local enforcement policies. A proposal or a low enforcement priority is not permission to buy or sell a product.
The sources above concern psilocybin and related controlled-substance provisions. They do not resolve the legality of every mushroom species, food, extract or advertised “microdose” product. An online listing or a seller's willingness to ship does not establish legal access.
Before relying on a legal summary
Read the current official text, including exceptions and effective dates. A rule in another state or country does not transfer automatically across a border. For advice about your own circumstances, consult a qualified lawyer. This page is educational and does not recommend products, providers or ways to obtain controlled substances.
