- **Overview of United States (not a local permission):** Legale verkoop voor volwassenengebruik bestaat alleen in de staten en territoria die daadwerkelijk een recreatieve markt hebben geopend, niet in het hele land. In die rechtsgebieden kunnen toeristen meestal vanaf 21 jaar kopen bij een vergunde dispensary met een geldig door de overheid uitgegeven identiteitsbewijs of paspoort. Cannabis blijft federaal gereguleerd, dus je mag het product niet over staatsgrenzen of landsgrenzen vervoeren.
