Can You Travel With THC Gummies in 2025?

The safe answer is no; you shouldn’t really travel with THC gummies in 2025. Thanks to changing state laws and regulations, THC gummies (even those derived from hemp with less than 0.3% THC by dry weight) aren’t legal in all states. Instead, you should buy THC gummies at your destination, enjoy ’em, and leave them there before coming home. Traveling with THC gummies across state lines or even through TSA might expose you to unwanted risks.

In just a few short years, the THC market has grown quickly. People love THC products so much that they want to tow them along on summer vacations, winter ski trips, and quick weekend getaways. But taking THC gummies with you might not be the smartest move, and in some cases, it might even be illegal. 

*cue Law & Order’s dun-duhn*

With the changing legal landscape for THC gummies, understanding the current rules and regulations can get a little confusing, maybe even a little frustrating. We get it; you just want to enjoy the gummy’s groovy good times. But you don’t want to feel the wrath from Five-O, or that rude, balding TSA try-hard. 

So here, we’ll help you travel with (or without) THC gummies comfortably. We’ll show you why THC gummies, even those from TRĒ House, might not be the best thing to take with you. 

But why? 

5 Key Facts About Traveling With THC Gummies

1. Traveling with THC gummies in 2025 is complex.
2. TSA doesn’t actively search for cannabis, but discovery can lead to local police involvement.
3. State laws on hemp-based THC gummies vary widely, making interstate travel risky.
4. Research destination laws and policies before packing.
5. Consider purchasing gummies legally at your destination.

Understanding THC Gummies

When we’re talking about THC gummies, we mean hemp-derived THC gummies with less than 0.3% THC by dry weight. These funkadelic edibles typically carry an assortment of hemp-based cannabinoids, like delta 8 THC and delta 9 THC, to deliver a one-two punch of mind-body bliss. Or, they feature a single THC cannabinoid that really rocks your socks right off.

Federal vs. State Cannabis Laws in 2025

Now, at the center of this weird, gray legal landscape is hemp’s federal policy. 

In 2018, after decades of Schedule 1 drug status, hemp was federally legalized by the Farm Bill. This bill permitted the nationwide cultivation, sale, and manufacture of hemp. To the federal government, hemp was legal, as long as it contained less than 0.3% THC by dry weight: the defining factor between hemp and marijuana. Finally, hemp was no longer lumped with marijuana: the problem child that has quietly become legal in almost half of the states for adults’ recreational use.

But in the years since the 2018 Farm Bill, state laws have shifted, conflicting with the federal government’s policies. Today, many states, like Idaho, have passed bills to criminalize hemp products based on their THC content. So yeah, that means Idahoans can’t even enjoy a full-spectrum CBD gummy. A few more states are considering legislative moves to curb the hemp market in their states. 

Traveling across state lines with your hemp-based gummies could be fine for the time being. But that window might close real soon. That’s why it’s always best to check with local laws before packing your go-to bottle of gummies. 

Domestic Travel Within the U.S.

For those going on trips to other spots in Uncle Sam’s backyard, you’re either flying or driving. On the rare chance that you’re taking a passenger train, these rules will still apply. Unless you’re living that vagabond life, train hopping across the country. Then, you’ve already thrown caution to the wind. Good luck, and Godspeed.

TSA Guidelines

According to the complete list of items published on the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) website, the only mention of THC products falls under “medical marijuana.” 

It states that TSA does not actively search for THC products, but agents must report illegal substances.

So, what does this mean? 

This policy mirrors that of the 2018 Farm Bill. Hemp-based products with less than 0.3% THC are exempt from being reported if found by a TSA agent. This part of the site goes on to say that TSA doesn’t screen for THC gummies or edibles. But if these products are found during a search, TSA agents may loop in local law enforcement. 

Traveling by Car or Bus

Now, if you’re traveling by car or bus, you might be subject to a different set of rules. Mostly, if a police officer were to stop you, illegal THC gummies are on their list of things to look for. This is when it would be great to know if hemp-based THC products are legal in your destination. If they are, make sure to carry the product’s packaging to prove just what’s inside the gummies. If they aren’t, hopefully, you didn’t just bring ’em in over state lines.

International Travel With THC Gummies

Flying or driving to other countries with THC gummies, hemp-derived or not, is a horrible, terrible, very bad idea. Some countries may be less strict than others in regards to cannabis. But some have severe punishments for smuggling in cannabis, even if it’s in the form of tasty, fruity THC gummies. So, if you’re traveling abroad, definitely leave the gummies at home for this trip. 

Best Practices for Travelers

With all that said, here are two traveling tips to keep you (and your stash) safe. 

1. Buy Legal Gummies at Your Destination

Don’t risk it and just buy legal THC gummies in your destination. Today, many head shops and smoke shops have a wall of delectable THC gummies. Most of these shops carry a ton of our best-selling TRĒ House gummies. Do yourself a favor and just buy these at your destination. Maybe even call ahead to see which smoke shop near your destination carries TRĒ House.

2. Travel With Packaging

To prove your gummies follow the 2018 Farm Bill and contain less than 0.3% THC by dry weight, make sure to pack your gummies in their original packaging. This packaging has a QR code on its side that takes you to the product’s Certificate of Analysis (COA). This COA proves that the gummies came from hemp and carry less than 0.3% THC by dry weight. Keep this close in case you need to quickly prove what’s in your edibles. 

Final Thoughts

The market for THC gummies is a bit of a maze, so you’ll need to do your homework before traveling with them! The 2018 Farm Bill gave a green light to hemp products with less than 0.3% THC, but many states have their own rules that might clash with federal law. So, before you pack your gummies, always check the local laws of where you’re headed to avoid any headaches. If you’re unsure, it’s probably best to just buy them when you get there. A little research and caution can make all the difference for a smooth and fun trip!

Safe travels, TRĒ Fam!
