Tasmania Cannabis Laws
Cannabis and items relating to cannabis are illegal in Tasmania. It is an offence in Tasmania to possess, sell, traffic, cultivate, or manufacture cannabis. This applies to any marijuana that is not for medical use.
If you are cultivating medicinal cannabis, you will require a federal licence. To acquire this licence, you must prove that you meet all the requirements and a proper and secure location for cultivation. You could also access marijuana if you have a prescription for a medicinal cannabis product and have legally acquired it through the proper access pathways.
Maximum penalties for offences related to cannabis can be up to 21 years of imprisonment. These offences may include cultivating large quantities of cannabis or using a child to traffic or prepare weed.
Medicinal Cannabis and Travelling to TAS
If you are visiting from another state and you have been prescribed unapproved medicinal marijuana, you are in luck. In Tasmania, you are allowed to travel to and around the state with your medicinal cannabis.
The product needs to have been prescribed and legally dispensed from your home state. This may be proved with the label on the packaging, your I.D. and other supporting documents. This applies to all forms of medical marijuana including CBD oils, tablets, or flower buds.
Extra caution should be taken when it comes to travelling with THC vapes in Hobart as a letter from your doctor is recommended to prove your doctor is aware and approves of this administration method.
Legally Accessing Cannabis in Tasmania
There are schemes to legally access marijuana in Tasmania, but these schemes are for medicinal cannabis only. For recreational users, there is no such scheme to legally access weed.
Medical Marijuana Access in Tasmania
Most medicinal cannabis products are unregistered/unapproved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), which means these medicines may not have been assessed or the research conducted thus far has not produced sufficient evidence on the effectiveness, quality, or safety of the product.
If a patient has discussed the use of an unapproved good as a medical treatment, such as medicinal marijuana, and the doctor believes that it is an appropriate option, then they can apply for the Special Access Scheme (SAS). Once approved they can receive a prescription for medicinal marijuana. Alternative schemes include the Authorised Prescriber scheme which allows a medical practitioner to prescribe to more than one patient an unapproved medicinal marijuana drug.
