Can I Visit Dispensaries In Other States With My Arkansas Medical Marijuana Card?

When it comes to dispensaries, accepting out-of-state medical marijuana cards is usually up to the discretion of the dispensary. Therefore, if you plan to visit a dispensary in another state, it would in best practice to call the facility ahead of time to confirm that you will be able to make a purchase. Each dispensary has its own purchase and possession limits for out-of-state patients.

​

Arizona and New Hampshire are two of the states that will only allow patients to possess marijuana for medicinal purposes and not purchase from dispensaries.

​

It is also important to remember that although you are approved to purchase and possess medical marijuana in a designated state, it is still illegal to cross state borders with marijuana products, even if medical marijuana is legal in both states.
