Get Your Maine Medical Marijuana Card

Getting a Maine medical marijuana card could save you about $500 or more per year, depending on how much cannabis you purchase.

Medical marijuana may cost less than recreational cannabis in Maine. Recreational cannabis purchases are subject to Maine's 14% adult-use cannabis tax, while most retail purchases are also subject to the state's 5.5% sales tax.

Registered medical marijuana patients are exempt from the adult-use cannabis tax, which can significantly reduce the overall cost of cannabis purchases.

In addition to saving money, below are more reasons to get a medical marijuana card in Maine, even when recreational cannabis is available. As a cardholder you can:

• • Consult a licensed doctor who can guide your cannabis therapy.
  • Possess more marijuana than recreational users.
  • Access medical-only dispensaries.
  • Grow more plants at home than recreational consumers.
