Chametz After Pesach 2023
Chametz may be purchased from all Capitol K establishments and caterers after Pesach.
It is rabbinically prohibited to purchase chametz after Pesach from a Jew who maintained chametz in his possession over the course of Pesach. This is referred to in rabbinic literature as Chametz She’avar Alav HaPesach. A product is defined as chametz if it consists of any of the five major grains, including wheat, barley, oat, rye, or spelt, in a significant concentration.

- There is no prohibition to purchase chametz from a non-Jew who was in possession of chametz over Pesach.

- There is no prohibition to purchase items which are not chametz from a Jewish-owned business that did not sell their chametz over Pesach.

  • One should not purchase chametz until 2 weeks after Pesach from any major Jewish-owned supermarket that does not sell its chametz.
  • One should not purchase liquor until Shavuos from a Jewish-owned liquor store that does not sell its chametz.
