Medical Card & Visitor Info

Puerto Rico Medical Cannabis — Visitor Guide

Puerto Rico runs a medical-only cannabis program regulated by the Junta Reglamentadora de Cannabis Medicinal (JRCM). Tourists can apply for a temporary patient registration for their visit, which takes a telehealth consult, a qualifying condition, and a short online application. This pillar covers the mechanics: who qualifies, how the temporary registration works, where licensed dispensaries are concentrated (San Juan, Condado, Santurce, Rincón, Aguadilla), what to bring to the shop, and the federal-flight rule that adults 21+ need to know before departure day. The point isn't to encourage access — it's to make sure visitors who'd benefit from the medical program understand the legal path in and respect the rules on the way out.
