Cannabis Laws in Arizona

Is weed legal in Arizona? Yes — recreational and medical cannabis are both legal here for adults 21+.

Arizona adults 21+ may possess up to 1 oz of cannabis, with no more than 5 g in concentrate form. Home cultivation allows 6 plants per adult and a maximum of 12 plants at a residence with two or more adults. Plants must be secured and out of public view. Licensed adult-use retailers operate under the Arizona Department of Health Services.

Federally, cannabis is still a controlled substance nationwide — but that status is in flux. See where rescheduling stands →
