3-MMC in Kiribati: not individually verified

Also known as: metaphedrone

We have not confirmed that 3-MMC specifically is scheduled in Kiribati, so this page gives no legal status. Publishing a guess here would be worse than publishing nothing. What we do know is the governing national drug law, below.

What is on record

Not confirmed. 3-mmc is not named in Schedule 2 of the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance, Cap. 23, Laws of the Gilbert Islands, Revised Edition 1977, and whether any later order under section 13(2) added it is not established. The term cathinone returned no hit in Schedule 2, and the only Poisons List entry in the neighbourhood prints two chemical names that are not 3-mmc. The Poisons List in the Pharmacy and Poisons Ordinance Cap. 70, 1977 Edition, prints, at Part I printed page 28, the entry "Amphetamines (beta-aminopropylbenzene and beta-aminoisopropyl-benzene)." which gives two chemical names and does not name 3-mmc, so whether its plural heading reaches this substance is open. That list is a sale law, not the drug schedule, its force today is not established, and under section 53(3) the Secretary may add to it by order. This is not a finding that 3-mmc is uncontrolled in Kiribati. The Dangerous Drugs Ordinance was read as in force in the 1977 Revised Edition as amended to the Acts of 1995 and 2001, and this text does not rule out a later amendment or a later order under section 13(2).

Confirm directly with Kiribati’s national drug authority or your own embassy before you rely on anything.
