Summary

On April 8, 2026, Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) notified prefectures that a product sold by GREEN RUSH BY WEED Co. of Minato, Tokyo, "Plus Weed Wax CBD 50% <OG Kush>" (1,000 mg wax), contained Δ9-THC above the legal residue limit. Aichi Prefecture had bought the product in a February 2026 test purchase. MHLW said the product was suspected of being a narcotic, was likely sold nationwide, and asked holders to surrender it to a narcotics control office or prefectural pharmaceutical division. It said no health damage had been reported. Since December 12, 2024, Japan treats any product whose Δ9-THC exceeds the residue limit (10 ppm for room-temperature liquid oils and powders, 0.1 ppm for water-based products, 1 ppm for other forms) as a narcotic under the Narcotics and Psychotropics Control Law.
