Montana Cannabis Purchase Limit Exception Petition

Montana medical marijuana cardholders who need more than the default monthly purchase limit of five ounces file this petition under 16-12-515(1)(b), MCA. The cardholder explains why, and the physician who signed their written certification confirms the condition warrants a higher amount. An approved petition raises the limit to at most 8 ounces of flower or the equivalent per month.

Who completes it

The cardholder completes page 1 and the cardholder statement; the physician who signed the cardholder's written certification, a Montana-licensed MD or DO, completes the physician statement and attestation on page 2.

Submitting and payment

How to submit it
Upload it as part of the cardholder's new, renewal or update application in the Department of Revenue Transaction Portal (TAP).

Good to know

  • If the petition is approved, the department sets the monthly amount and enters it in the seed-to-sale tracking system.
