No, Salvia Divinorum is not explicitly legal in Iceland. The Icelandic Medicines Agency (Lyfiseftirlitið) classifies it as a controlled substance under the Act on Medicinal Products (No. 112/2007), prohibiting possession, sale, or use without authorization. Recent 2026 amendments to the Narcotics Act (No. 82/2018) further restrict psychoactive plants, including Salvia Divinorum, aligning with EU monitoring trends.
