Apply for you Virginia Medical Marijuana Card Online

Virginia does not maintain a specific list of qualifying conditions. Under state law, a registered practitioner may certify a patient for any condition or disease determined by the practitioner to benefit from the use of cannabis products.

Common conditions patients seek certification for include chronic pain, anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, cancer, and inflammatory conditions.

You book a telehealth appointment with a Veriheal-affiliated Virginia physician and meet with them for a 10 to 15 minute video call. If the practitioner certifies you, they issue a written certification you can use to register with the Virginia Cannabis Control Authority.

You then submit your registration to the CCA with a $50 fee and your written certification to become a registered patient.

A patient must be a Virginia resident with a valid state ID or driver’s license. The state charges $50 for annual registration, which is separate from your Veriheal recommendation fee.

A Virginia caregiver must be designated by the registered patient and prove Virginia residency with a valid driver’s license or state ID. Caregivers can only be registered to help up to two patients at a time. A $25 registration fee applies when applying as a parent or legal guardian for a minor patient.

Registered patients may purchase up to 4 ounces of botanical cannabis per 90-day period, plus up to 10 milligrams of THC per single dose taken as prescribed. Adults 21 and older may separately possess up to 1 ounce of cannabis under recreational rules.

Adults 21 and older may grow up to 4 plants per household. Plants must be kept out of public view and out of reach of individuals under 21.

To renew your Virginia certification through Veriheal, schedule a renewal appointment with one of our physicians who can confirm you still benefit from medical cannabis. We remind you when renewal is near, and our Customer Service Department can apply a renewal discount.

A Virginia medical cannabis certification is valid for one year. Both physician recertification and CCA registration renew annually.
