How to Get a Oklahoma Out-of-State Medical Cannabis Card

What is an Oklahoma Out-of-State Medical Marijuana Card

An Oklahoma out-of-state medical marijuana card is a temporary patient license issued to patients with valid medical marijuana licenses or cards from other states (issued by that state government) to permit the legal purchase, consumption, and cultivation of medical marijuana and related products in Oklahoma.

Issued by the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority (OMMA) in the form of an identification card, the Oklahoma out-of-state medical marijuana card serves as proof of the non-resident's status as a valid medical marijuana patient in Oklahoma.

Who Can Apply for an Oklahoma Out-of-State Medical Marijuana Card?

The Oklahoma out-of-state medical marijuana card may be issued to an adult or minor with any condition for which a medical marijuana card can be issued in their home state. Since Oklahoma does not have a list of qualifying conditions for medical marijuana, a minor or adult who has been certified under their state’s medical marijuana program and issued a medical marijuana card under the program can apply for an Oklahoma Out-of-State medical marijuana card.

Can You Get a Medical Marijuana Card in Oklahoma If You Live in Texas?

No. Although medical marijuana patients in Oklahoma’s bordering states, such as Arkansas and Missouri, can apply for Oklahoma out-of-state medical marijuana cards, patients from Texas are ineligible for out-of-state MMJ cards under the Oklahoma medical marijuana program. The OMMA considers low-THC cannabis or medical marijuana users under the Texas Compassionate Use Program (TCUP) ineligible to obtain Oklahoma out-of-state medical marijuana cards because the Texas government does not issue medical marijuana cards or MMJ licenses under the TCUP. Having a medical marijuana card or license issued under your state’s medical marijuana program is a prerequisite to obtaining an Oklahoma out-of-state medical marijuana program.
