Minnesota law requires that any business that sells hemp-derived cannabinoid products directly to consumers register with the Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) before selling any of these products. This includes establishments that sell THC beverages as well as out-of-state businesses that sell online to Minnesota customers.
Registered retailers can only sell hemp-derived cannabinoid products in the form of an edible or a beverage for human consumption, or products that are for external use only and are labeled as such. The retailer must verify the purchaser’s age through a valid state-issued driver’s license or identification card, Tribal identification card, passport, instructional permit, or Canadian driver’s license. It is illegal to sell these products to people under 21 years old.
Learn how to register your business. A separate licensing process will be available in the future and announced when available.
