Cannabis for medical use was signed into law in Hawaii by Gov. Ben Cayetano on June 14, 2000 and the law became effective on December 28, 2000.
The act removed state-level criminal penalties on the use, possession and cultivation of marijuana by patients who possess a signed statement from their physician affirming that he or she suffers from a debilitating condition and that the “potential benefits of medical use of marijuana would likely outweigh the health risks.”
The law establishes a mandatory, confidential state-run patient registry that issues identification cards to qualifying patients.
Application information for the Hawaii medical marijuana registry is available by mail, phone, fax, and online from the address below. At the time of writing, there is a $25 charge for registration.
