How to Renew Your Florida Medical Marijuana Card

Medical marijuana cards in Florida expire one year after they are issued. Patients can renew their cards up to 45 days before they expire. If you do not do this, the state will mark the card as delinquent and you will be unable to use it. Your card can be renewed online or by mail.

According to state law, Florida patients must also see a medical marijuana doctor every seven months or 210 days for a recertification appointment. These consultations can be in person or online.

Follow these steps to renew your Florida medical marijuana card:

  • 1. Schedule a recertification appointment with one of the Sanctuary’s medical marijuana doctors
  • 2. Submit a renewal application through the MMUR online portal or by mail
  • 3. Pay the state’s $75 renewal fee

Typically, the OMMU reviews online applications within 10 business days of receiving them.
