    Hi, Can anyone explain to me why my order of two 10ml bottles of cbd oil was seized by customs at Athlone mailing centre. I understood CBD oil is legal in Ireland. What am I missing?

    I'd imagine a bottle of CBD oil would show up as similar to drugs on an x ray machine. It was probably seized for analysis to make sure it wasn't something like liquid cocaine.

    Some CBD oil contains high level of THC. Maybe this is the issue

    A test should prove this...

    Cbd oil shouldn't have any THC in it , that's why it's called Cbd oil. THC is the part of the plant that gets you stoned .

    And if was deemed to be simply CBD oil after testing it, will they reinburse me?

    Google cbd oil & THC. Some oils will have THC in it

    There are two sources of CBD oil. One source is the hemp plant, while the other comes from the marijuana plant.

    These two sources vary in their genetic makeup and the purpose for which people grow them.

    Marijuana plants contain a higher level of THC, which is a psychoactive drug that binds to the endocannabinoid system’s cannabinoid 1 receptors. It’s the agent inside of marijuana that gets you “highâ€.

    I doubt it, they would just say they were just doing their job etc.

    Folks, take it to the legal discussions forum instead:

    This is not the place for this.
