Cannabinol in United Arab Emirates: not individually verified

Also known as: cbn

Not individually verified

We have not confirmed that Cannabinol specifically is scheduled in United Arab Emirates, 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. No entry matching cannabinol was found in the complete schedules of Decision No. 158 of 2025 after an exact name, abbreviation and cannabinoid block search. The Arabic string «كانابينول؛ CBN» is the dossier's search record of the terms tested and not a schedule entry. The finding that matters here is a typesetting one: the cannabinoid entries print specified tetrahydrocannabinol variants along with dronabinol, nabilone and hexahydrocannabinol, and the search did not read the tetrahydrocannabinol heading as the distinct cannabinol molecule. The two names differ by four letters in English and by a prefix in Arabic, which is exactly the kind of near match that produces a false placement, and the dossier records that it was avoided deliberately. The search was run on 20 September 2026.

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