‍Market Type
In Nevada, cannabis is regulated by the Cannabis Compliance Board (CCB). Medical and adult-use cannabis are allowed. Nevada also allows visiting out-of-state medical patients to purchase medical cannabis as long as they have an ID card or other document to prove they are authorized to engage in the medical use of cannabis under the laws of the person’s home state.
Metrc and Inventory
Nevada uses Metrc as their seed-to-sale state traceability system.
Purchase Limits
Adult-use and Medical limits:
- 2.5 ounces (70.875 grams) of usable cannabis other than concentrated cannabis;
- One-quarter ounce of concentrated cannabis or cannabis products containing not more than 7,087 milligrams of THC; or
