7-Hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) in Belize: not individually verified

We have not confirmed that 7-Hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) specifically is scheduled in Belize, 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. 7-hydroxymitragynine, mitragynine, Mitragyna and kratom all returned nothing in either file. There is no near entry. No indole alkaloid of the Mitragyna genus is printed anywhere in the volume. The tryptamine generic clause in paragraph 1(b) is confined to compounds substituted at the sidechain nitrogen with alkyl substituents and no other substituents, and a corynanthe alkaloid with a fused ring system and an ester group is not that. This row is the oxidised metabolite, and it is kept apart from the parent alkaloid row because a metabolite can be scheduled separately. Nothing in this cell rests on an absence being the whole answer: the Misuse of Drugs Regulations are subsidiary law, and the list that decides whether a substance is a controlled drug at all is the Act's own Second Schedule, which section 4 divides into Parts I, II and III for Class A, Class B and Class C. That schedule is in the Substantive Laws volume of Chapter 103 and was not among the four instruments in the subsidiary volume read, so this row is left open rather than answered. The search recorded above covers the Misuse of Drugs Regulations, the Cannabis Violation Tickets Regulations and the Industrial Hemp Regulations as the Revised Edition 2020 volume prints them, showing the subsidiary laws as at 31 December 2020, together with the 1990 Act text. The schedule placement in this cell is read off the instrument and is not printed in the quoted dossier extract, which names the Act's schedules only as a range.

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