Some hemp seed and fibre products can be imported without a licence and permit because they are considered a food under a relevant food standard. These products must not exceed the stated thresholds for cannabinoids.
It is important to be aware that only the seeds of the hemp plant can be used for human consumption - extracts from the remainder of the plant are considered a drug.
For example, hemp seed oil is the oil obtained by cold pressing the ripened fruits (seeds) of a plant in the genus Cannabis. Hemp seed oil does not contain cannabinoids, such as cannabidiol (CBD).
Applicable food standards and local state and territory laws may have different requirements for importation, including thresholds for cannabinoids. You must ensure you comply with all other legal requirements.
