Common FAQ

Yes! Florida first legalized medical cannabis in 2014 when the Legislature passed the Compassionate Use Act allowing patients suffering from cancer and epilepsy to access low-THC cannabis. This program was expanded in 2016 under the Right to Try Act which permitted full-strength cannabis to patients with a terminal illness.

On November 8, 2016 Florida voters passed Amendment 2 with a 71.3% majority, allowing for a larger medical cannabis program, effective January 2017. On June 23, 2017 Governor Rick Scott signed Senate Bill 8A into law, removing the dreaded “90 day wait” and establishing operational guidelines to meet the requirements of Amendment 2. The program is still in a fluid state, with rules and regulations are expected to change over time. The program has grown exponentially – now including flower for smokable use and edibles.

Florida requires that patients obtain a certification from a qualifying physician during a face to face medical evaluation. Qualifying physicians have completed training specific to medicinal marijuana. After obtaining a certification (and being entered into the registry), a patient must submit an application to the Office of Medical Marijuana Use to obtain an ID card. Once a patient receives their temporary (via email) or permanent ID card and an order from their physician they may purchase medication at a licensed dispensary.

Sort of. Florida law requires that patients are Florida residents or seasonal residents. To qualify as a seasonal resident you must live in Florida at least 31 consecutive days per year.

Seasonal residents must submit two of the following documents as proof of residency:

  • A deed, mortgage statement, mortgage payment booklet, or residential rental/lease agreement.

  • One proof of address from the patient’s parent, step-parent, legal guardian, or another person with whom the patient resides. The patient must also submit a statement from the person with whom the patient resides attesting that the patient does in fact live with him/her.

  • A utility hookup, work order, or utility bill not more than 2 months old.

  • Mail from a bank or financial institution.

  • Mail from a federal, state, county, or municipal government agency, not more than 2 months old.

  • Other documentation that provides proof of residential address may be accepted by department rule.
