Restricted product requirements

Restricted products are items with legal requirements, such as minimum age and maximum quantity limitations. These requirements vary by region. Your catalog can contain restricted products as long as they are not on the Instacart list of prohibited products.

The following table describes how to add three restricted items—dextromethorphan, spray paint, and nicotine replacement therapy products—to your storefront.
