In analyzing the European framework for hemp-derived products, the analyst has previously identified the hexahydrocannabinol (HHC) vape as the intoxicating hemp-derived cannabinoid (IHDC) product that is most likely to be legal in some European countries because it is not THC, and vaping products are generally less regulated than other major formats like foods.

The number of countries that potentially allow some IHDC products in Europe is small and quickly vanishing. While the analyst has identified two European countries where HHC vapes are potentially legal, we expect bans to continue and essentially eradicate a legal market in Europe, though products may persist on the market in areas with poor enforcement.
