External Dutchie compliance documentation may be updated from time to time and has been prepared for informational purposes only, is not intended to provide, and should not be relied on for, tax, legal or compliance advice. Merchants should consult their own tax, legal and compliance advisors to determine how best to operate within the cannabis industry.
In Alaska, cannabis is regulated by the Alcohol and Marijuana Control Office (AMCO). Medical and adult-use cannabis are controlled by a unified ruleset, and Alaska generally treats all marijuana as adult use.
Alaska uses METRC as their state traceability system.
Alaska’s equivalencies are unusual in that they depend on the variety of products in the transaction. While flower and concentrates both have a limitation of weight if sold exclusively with like type items, when sold with marijuana product (other product types), the entire transaction is limited by the potency.
There is the allowance for cities and municipalities to impose their own taxes on licenses within their limits. There is not a standard tax rate for retailers.
Alaska does not currently allow home delivery.
