Cannabis is still completely illegal in Idaho, so don't even think about bringing your out-of-state medical card. Marijuana remains fully illegal for both medical and recreational purposes. Possession of more than 3 ounces of marijuana can lead to severe penalties, including a prison sentence of up to five years and a fine of up to $10,000, or both. Possession of under 3 ounces is considered a misdemeanor offense, punishable by a fine. Idaho does not have any medical marijuana program, and cultivation or use of marijuana is prohibited. Additionally, the state does not accept medical patients from other states, and travel with marijuana across state lines is strictly prohibited. Idaho has some of the strictest cannabis laws in the United States, with no legal allowances for any form of marijuana use or cultivation.
