## Facts

- **Catalogue content updated:** 2026-10-22
- **Legal status:** Allowed with conditions. Adults 21+ may buy from licensed cannabis retailers; the Cannabis Regulation Act sets no residency requirement. Conditions: Minimum age 21+. Rule jurisdiction: New Mexico. Reviewed: 2026-09-09.
- **Can tourists buy:** Allowed with conditions. Visitors buy on the same terms as residents: any adult 21+ with a valid government-issued photo ID may purchase from a licensed retailer; there is no residency requirement.

- **Overview of United States (not a local permission):** Легальний adult-use продаж існує лише у штатах і територіях, де recreational-ринок реально запущено, а не по всій країні. У таких юрисдикціях туристи зазвичай можуть купувати в ліцензованому dispensary з 21 року з чинним державним посвідченням особи або паспортом. Канабіс залишається під федеральним контролем, тому продукт не можна перевозити між штатами чи через міжнародні кордони.
