Arkansas: Everything You Need to Know

Arkansas Law

Arkansas has a medical marijuana card to provide safe access to marijuana products to patients. The program was approved by voters in 2016, and the state has established specific rules for patients, physicians, and dispensaries. The following is a summary of the Arkansas medical marijuana laws:

  • Arkansas voters passed Amendment 98 (Issue 6), allowing 21 and older qualified patients to use marijuana products with a doctor's approval.
  • Patient requires proof of Arkansas residency.
  • Patients 18 or older can qualify for medical marijuana if they are recommended by a certified Arkansas physician, but a parent/legal guardian must act as a caregiver and provide written consent.
  • Patients can possess up to 2.5 ounces of marijuana every 14 days from licensed dispensaries.
  • Visiting patients may buy medical marijuana if they hold a valid card (or equivalent) from their home state and provide certification.

The Arkansas Medical Marijuana Cultivation (AMMC) Program oversees cultivators, processors, and dispensaries, enforcing packaging, labeling, and testing rules.

Arkansas Reform Timeline

2016 – Voter Approval of Marijuana

Voters passed Amendment 98 (Issue 6) in November 2016, legalizing medical marijuana for qualifying patients.

2019 – First Licensed Dispensary Launch

After years of planning and licensing, the first licensed dispensary opened in May 2019, allowing patients to purchase marijuana legally.

2024 – Proposal for Expansion & Amendment Filed

A proposed constitutional amendment was filed to seek to broaden qualifying conditions, extend Medical Marijuana Card validity from 1 to 3 years, allow home cultivation, include additional medical professionals in certifying patients, and recognize out-of-state cards.

2025 – Patient Growth

By 2023, the Arkansas Medical Marijuana Card had reached 100,000 active patients and recorded massive cannabis sales since 2019.

April 16, 2025 – Gov. Sanders Vetoes HB1889

HB1889 tried to make it easier and safer for patients to get medical marijuana with drive-thru pickup and simpler delivery. Governor Sanders vetoed the bill, so those improvements were blocked, and strict rules remain in place.

Arkansas Possession Limits

  • Registered patients with a valid Arkansas Medical Marijuana Card can possess up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis every 14 days from licensed dispensaries.
  • Recreational use of marijuana is not legal in Arkansas. Only qualified patients can legally use and possess it.
  • Cultivating marijuana plants at home is not allowed, even for qualified patients. It must be purchased from state-licensed dispensaries.
