Salvia divinorum remains legal in most countries!
The situation may be subject to future change but at present Salvia divinorum remains legal in most countries. Current exceptions, countries where there is some form of control, include Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Italy, Spain, and Sweden. In the United Kingdom, following a local newspaper story in October 2005, a parliamentary Early Day Motion was raised calling for Salvia divinorum to be banned there. However, it only received 11 signatures and has not been debated or further escalated.
In such places where Salvia divinorum legislation exists, it varies in its prohibitive degree from country to country. Australia has imposed its strictest ‘Schedule 9′ (US Schedule I equivalent) classification for example, and Italy has also placed Salvia in its ‘Table I’ of controlled substances (also US Schedule I equivalent). - Whereas in Spain there are just controls focusing on the commercial trade of Salvia divinorum, and private cultivation (growing your own plants for non-commercial use) is not targeted.
Salvia Divinorum is considered a drug by some people but not by most. It has too many medicinal uses to be labeled as a “drug”. It’s usefulness in meditation also is quite notable. However, some people mistake it for a drug, and even though it is legal, if you’re caught walking around smoking salvia Divinorum, the police most probably will arrest you. Later charges would be dropped in court, but you’d lose some valuable time. Hence, you shouldn’t walk around carrying salvia Divinorum on you. Salvia Divinorum is readily available; you can buy salvia Divinorum from shops selling hookahs and water pipes etc.
Hence, you shouldn’t mistake salvia Divinorum for an illegal drug, it is legal, but one of those gray drugs that you would want to keep under your jacket. It is legal in most states of the USA; however, you should check the local law in your area before even thinking of using it.

Australia became the first country to ban Salvia and salvinorin. According to the Australian Drugs and Poisons Committee, salvia had not yet shown evidence of damage or threat to public health/safety but had potential to be abused.
