When the state of Florida legalized the use of medical marijuana (MMJ) for qualified patients in 2016, they established a set of guidelines physicians and patients are required to follow in order to legally be able to recommend and use medical marijiana products. If a person who suffers from a state qualifying condition sees a Florida Medical Marijuana Doctors and becomes a registered MMJ patient, they are required to renew their registration with the Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU) on an annual basis.
For many people, the process it takes to become a qualified patient can be a little confusing and even intimidating. Once registered, it becomes second nature to be able to legally obtain medical marijuana products and it is often forgotten that there are regulations set by the state that have to be adhered to. Renew Your Florida Medical Marijuana Card.
How to Renew Your Florida Medical Marijuana Card Step-By-Step
The identification card given to approved medical marijuana patients in Florida is administered by The Florida Department of Health’s Office of Medical Marijuana Use. This I.D. card is valid for one year from the patient’s initial approval date. For the convenience of the patient, the OMMU has printed the date of expiration on the I.D. card underneath the patient’s date of birth.
It is recommended by the OMMU to begin the renewal process up to 45 days prior to the current cards expiration date. The patient can choose to renew their card through the internet or by mailing in a completed paper medical marijuana application form.

I applied for renewal of my medical marijuana use license March 16, 2020, the fee was posted on my card March 17 and your site it indicates the payment was processed on March 23. I’m sure with all that is going on you are working with smaller numbers, but I was wondering when you will allow me again purchase products. Thank you for your time
BUT….what about seeing my cannabis physician before I submit a renewal application?? Don’t I need to see my cannabis doctor BEFORE I submit the application for renewal?? What does the doctor do in order to tell the state that I SHOULD BE renewed??
Hello, I am reaching out because I have to renew my card, it expires on may 5th. I know I needed to do it 45 days before, but the issue is I can’t pay it until next check. So I’m wondering how it will affect my ability to obtain it because instead of 45 days prior it’s like 2 weeks prior that I’ll be able to do it and I just hope it doesnt affect me in any way! Thanks!
How do you renew if your original card has expired 6 months ago?

I moved and I couldn’t renew my marijuana card since 2017 what can I do?
I’m sorry to bother you but my sons license expired over a year ago, how did you renew yours?
Thank you!
I am curious why my renewal was $15 plus $2.75? I was expecting to pay $75 but was not afforded the opportunoty to do so. I am concerned that my card will not be renewed for lack of payment. Please advise. Thank You in advance. An email or Text to (808)931-9109 will suffice.
How much is the annual renewal fee?
It isn’t annual, the cert is valid for 210 days from the date of issuance, so 7 months. Primary visit is between $150 – 200, renewal (at my place at least) is 150, but *must* be completed before the 210 day period has expired or you must start over i believe.
How do I renew my card that expired on 5-9-20 . Have a Dr appointment (David Bear) on June 3rd. To get reinstated. How do I renew ????

I renewed my medical marijuana card June 21, 2020. I sent the fee via Discover to you on line. For some reason I only sent

I am trying to renew my medical marijuana card.
I went to doctor a week ago. and have not heard anything since. what else do i need to do ?
I’m confused. Do I have to renew my card BEFORE the 45 days when my card will expire, or am I not allowed to renew it until I am at least 45 days away from my card’s expiration date? I am exactly 43 days away from the day my card expires. Does this mean I Can Register for my renewal, or does it mean I’ve missed the window of renewing BEFORE the 45th day of my expiration date?

Does this mean I Can Register for my renewal, or does it mean I’ve missed the window of renewing BEFORE the 45th day of my expiration date or can I register because I am past the 45th day? I am very confused by the wording on this site
One site states I MUST renew my card no later than 45 days before the expiration date on my card. Another site claims I can renew my card 43 days before my expiration date. I just saw my doctor 2 months ago and paid him $225.00. Am I to understand that I must go back and pay another $225.00 to my doctor because I am 43 days away from my expiration date??? I was told as long as I re-applied in early June, I’d be fine. I wasn’t told it had to be on the first of June! So do I have to go back to the doctor again and pay another $225.00 because I wasnt told I absolutely HAD to register on the first????
My MM card expires 7/3/2020 ( Patient ID # P3TF1305). I renewed on line last month and
paid the fee with my credit card. I have not received my new card and also have heard nothing about the renewal. Please let me know when I can expect to receive my new MM card.
What do you do if it’s expired? It won’t tell me anywhere.
