All applications will go through the Mississippi State Department of Health and will require a physician’s approval.

MISSISSIPPI, USA — Wednesday is the first day Mississippians may submit their applications for medical marijuana cards. 

According to the Mississippi State Department of Health, applications for licensing/registration will be accepted online for services, facilities and individuals (except dispensaries) starting at 8 a.m. Wednesday.

  • Individuals: patients and medical practitioners
  • Facilities: cannabis cultivation, processing and testing
  • Services: cannabis transportation and waste disposal

The Mississippi Department of Revenue will be responsible for the licensing of dispensaries starting in July.

There’s a 30-day approval time for licensure applications and a five-day approval time for patients. All applications will require a physician’s approval and will go through the state Department of Health.

A pre-application checklist can be found here.

Pre-application requirements include reading the Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act, reviewing regulations, plus a background check and fingerprinting process. 

Practitioners are required to complete 80 hours of continued medical education, certify practitioner information and licensure, provide the debilitating medical condition diagnosis and register with their respective licensing boards. 

Online registration for all types of medical cannabis licensing will be available online starting tomorrow, June 1, at 8:00 AM.
