INTERNATIONAL LAW #
Japan #
5-MeO-DALT is controlled as a "Designated Substance" (Shitei-Yakubutsu) by the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law, making it illegal to possess or sell (see Ref)
United Kingdom #
According to KSwift 5-MeO-DALT is not covered by the misuse of drugs act for the following reasons: 1/ The tryptamine coverall paragraph refers to tryptamine (or ring hydroxytryptamines, and their ethers and esters) derivatives created by substitution at the sidechain nitrogen by alkyl groups only. As an allyl group is classed as an alkenyl group, it is therefore outside the remit of the paragraph.

2/ Alkyl cannot be taken to refer to any hydrocarbon chain (within the meaning of the act), as the coverall paragraphs for derivatives of pethedine (demerol) and fentanyl refer to alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl group. Therefore they must be seen as distinctly different.

Sweden #
According to a Swedish online vendor, as of May 1, 2007, 5-MeO-DALT will be controlled in Sweden. Previously, it was not included in the list of controlled substances (Laekemedels Vaerket) (thanks Peter and VaPPa) (March 2007)
