Every state has different marijuana laws- they are regulated by state, not federal law. Some states allow marijuana for recreational and medical use, some states only allow medical use, and some only allow certain low THC products for medical use. Most states limit the number of licenses they will grant and the window to apply for them. Getting licenced is never simple- there are very specific requirements and guidelines that differ by state and its usually highly competitive, which is why most successful applicants work with consultants like Dispensary Permits to help guide them. We highly advise you read the guidelines below thoroughly and then consider working with a consultant or using our templates and guides.

The History of South Dakota Marijuana

On the 2006 ballot, the first bill to allow medical marijuana, called The South Dakota Medical Marijuana Initiative (Initiative 4) was defeated by a narrow margin of 52-47. In 2010, it was revived under the same name, now known as Initiative 13 where it was defeated again, but a large margin of 63-36%. An attempt to bring the same initiative to the 2016 ballot again failed.

Current South Dakota law makes industrial hemp illegal and all forms of CBD oil illegal. The only exception is the prescription drug Epidiolex which was recognized by the 2019 legislature as a controlled substance under Senate Bill 22. Governor Kristi Noem signed that bill into law on February 19, 2019, which included an emergency clause to have the law go into effect immediately. This action leaves any other use or possession of CBD oil as a violation of state law.
