Frequently Asked Questions

Is recreational marijuana legal in New Jersey?
Yes. New Jersey voters approved recreational cannabis in 2021 and adult-use sales began in April 2022. Adults 21+ can purchase from licensed dispensaries. Medical patients still pay 0% tax (versus the roughly 9% combined adult-use rate), get the 3 oz / 30-day medical purchase limit (versus the 1 oz per transaction recreational cap), and receive priority service required by the CREAMM Act.
How much does a New Jersey medical marijuana card cost in East Brunswick?
The MMJ.com physician telehealth visit is $149.99. Your digital Patient ID on the NJ-CRC Registry is $0; the optional physical card is $10. Most patients use the digital card. There is no separate state application fee on top of the physician visit.
Is medical marijuana really tax-free in New Jersey?
Yes. Medical cannabis is 100% tax-free in New Jersey. Recreational consumers pay roughly ~9% in combined taxes (state cannabis tax plus the municipal cannabis transfer tax plus the recreational-only Social Equity Excise Fee, which is set at $2.50 per ounce as of January 1, 2026). Medical patients pay nothing.
Does anxiety qualify for medical marijuana in New Jersey?
Yes. Anxiety is explicitly listed as a qualifying condition by the NJ Cannabis Regulatory Commission and is one of the most common certifications, accounting for roughly 25% of all New Jersey patients.
What conditions qualify for medical marijuana in New Jersey?
Qualifying conditions in New Jersey are defined by the NJ Cannabis Regulatory Commission and include anxiety, chronic pain, migraine, PTSD, cancer, seizure disorder/epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, IBD/Crohn's, ALS, muscular dystrophy, Tourette syndrome, opioid use disorder, glaucoma, dysmenorrhea, intractable skeletal muscular spasticity, and terminal illness. New Jersey does not use physician discretion: a condition is either on the CRC list or a patient (or physician) must petition the CRC to add it.
How much cannabis can I purchase with a medical card?
Medical patients can purchase up to 3 oz/30 days (85 grams). Recreational consumers are limited to 1 oz per transaction. Your physician can certify higher amounts when medically necessary, and terminal patients have no monthly limit.
What is priority service for medical patients?
The CREAMM Act requires every licensed dispensary in New Jersey to prioritize medical patients. In practice that means patient-only lines, dedicated patient-only hours at many operators, supply priority during product shortages, and access to medical-only product lines and personalized clinical consultations the adult-use menu does not include.
Can I grow cannabis at home in New Jersey?
No. Home cultivation is not allowed in New Jersey for either medical or recreational use. All cannabis must be purchased from a licensed New Jersey dispensary.
Do out-of-state patients have access in New Jersey?
Yes. Visiting patients can obtain a temporary 6 months non-renewable card by consulting with a New Jersey-registered physician and registering with the NJ-CRC. This grants full medical benefits including 0% sales tax, the 3 oz / 30-day purchase limit, and priority service at every operator.
How long is a New Jersey medical card valid?
New Jersey medical marijuana certifications are valid for 2 years. The digital Patient ID issued by the NJ-CRC Registry is $0; the optional physical card is $10. There is no separate state application fee on top of the physician visit.
