Visitors buy on the same terms as residents: any adult 21+ with a valid government-issued ID may purchase from a state-licensed retailer; California sets no residency requirement. The personal possession limits (28.5 g of cannabis, 8 g of concentrate) apply, consumption is restricted to private property and licensed lounges, and taking cannabis across the state line remains a federal offence. Conditions: Minimum age 21+. Rule jurisdiction: California. Reviewed: 2026-09-08. - **Overview of United States (not a local permission):** Legal adult-use retail exists only in the states and territories that have actually launched a recreational market, not nationwide. In those jurisdictions tourists can usually buy at a licensed dispensary from age 21 with a valid government-issued ID or passport. Cannabis remains federally controlled, so you may not transport product across state lines or international borders. - **Context source reviewed:** 2026-08-30 (United States; inherited context) - **Medical access:** Medical use only. California has a medical cannabis route based on a physician’s recommendation. Adult medical purchases and minor patients with caregiver arrangements have different requirements; a medical ID card is not the same as a recommendation. Rule jurisdiction: California. Reviewed: 2026-09-17. - **Possession limit:** Allowed with conditions. For adults 21+, California's general non-medical personal allowance is up to 28.5 g of cannabis other than concentrate and up to 8 g of concentrated cannabis. Medicinal and lawful home-cultivation provisions have separate rules; this is not an unrestricted possession allowance. Conditions: Minimum age 21+. Rule jurisdiction: California. Reviewed: 2026-09-07. - **Public consumption:** Prohibited. Cannabis may not be consumed in public places (including restaurants and bars), anywhere tobacco smoking is banned, within 1,000 feet of a school, day care or youth center while children are present, or on federal land such as national parks. Rule jurisdiction: California. Reviewed: 2026-08-30. - **Private consumption:** Allowed with conditions. Consumption is allowed on private property, but property owners and landlords may prohibit it; local ordinances can add further limits. Conditions: Minimum age 21+. Rule jurisdiction: California.

Les détaillants doivent vérifier une pièce d’identité officielle, passeports compris. L’accès médical obéit à des conditions différentes. [\[1\]](https://www.cannabis.ca.gov/licensees/retail/) Consultez le catalogue de Los Angeles pour comparer les adresses. Utilisez la carte ou l’option des établissements les plus proches pour organiser votre trajet, puis vérifiez les informations à jour concernant le lieu choisi. ### Avant de partir Dans l’outil de recherche du DCC, vérifiez le nom de l’établissement, le statut de sa licence et son adresse physique exacte. Comparez le résultat avec la fiche de l’établissement avant de prévoir un retrait ou une visite. [\[2\]](https://search.cannabis.ca.gov/) - Vérifiez l’adresse exacte, pas seulement le nom de l’entreprise. - Consultez les horaires d’ouverture du jour de votre visite. - Contactez l’établissement si une condition d’accès ou le service indiqué n’est pas clair. ### Une fiche médicale donne-t-elle accès aux achats pour adultes ? Vérifiez la licence de l’établissement et le service dont vous avez besoin. Les voies d’accès médical et pour adultes sont soumises à des conditions différentes ; ne déduisez pas l’une de l’autre. [\[1\]](https://www.cannabis.ca.gov/licensees/retail/) ### Si les informations ne correspondent pas Conservez la source officielle et la réponse de l’établissement. Si l’adresse ou les horaires indiqués sont incorrects, utilisez l’option de signalement d’erreur de la fiche. Examinez séparément les règles locales relatives à l’achat et à la consommation : ce guide vous aide à choisir et vérifier la prochaine étape, tandis que les règles liées fournissent leurs conditions.
