Hi kava lovers down under, just wanted to put this here in case any vendors were looking to get into the game, and found us.

Thank you for this. Is it legal to import Kava extracts and or Kava supplements in pill form?

I believe those are governed by an entirely different set of rules, but yes I think they've been available for a while now.

These rules pertain specifically for import of kava powder as a food item, to be sold as a food item.

Any extraction or addition of flavors or additives to these powders would violate their classification as food.
