Cheap Michigan Medical Marijuana Card Cost
A Michigan medical marijuana card is just $74.99 for the telehealth certification with code 75off (paid only if approved), plus the CRA's $40 registration fee - about $115. Because the card lasts two years, that's roughly $57 a year, and patients then buy tax-free at the dispensary.
Michigan medical marijuana card cost, broken down
A Michigan medical card has two costs: the telehealth certification and the CRA's $40 registration fee. With code 75off the certification is just $74.99, and you pay it only if a Michigan-licensed physician certifies you.
| Cost | Paid to | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Telehealth certification fee (with code 75off) | Telehealth provider | $74.99 |
| State registration fee (2-year card) | Michigan Cannabis Regulatory Agency | $40 |
| Total to get certified (covers 2 years) | About $115 |
How a Michigan medical card saves on cannabis taxes
The savings really show up at the register. Registered medical patients are exempt from the 10% recreational excise tax and pay only Michigan's 6% sales tax, while adult-use buyers pay both. As of January 1, 2026 a new 24% wholesale cannabis tax also took effect on adult-use products, which pushes recreational shelf prices higher - so a medical card increasingly pays for itself.
| Tax | Medical patient | Adult-use buyer |
|---|---|---|
| 6% state sales tax | Applies | Applies |
| 10% retail excise tax | Exempt | Applies |
| 24% wholesale tax (2026) | Not on medical | Raises prices |
Medical patients also keep higher possession limits and can grow up to 12 cannabis plants at home - savings that can far exceed the card's cost for regular users.

Frequently asked questions
What is the total cost of a Michigan medical marijuana card?
About $115 for two years: a $74.99 telehealth certification with code 75off (paid only if approved) plus the CRA's $40 registration fee. That's roughly $57 a year for the two-year card.
How much is the Michigan state registration fee?
$40, paid to the Cannabis Regulatory Agency for a card valid two years. There's no reduced-fee tier, and renewal is the same $40.
Do medical patients save on taxes in Michigan?
Yes. Medical cannabis is exempt from the 10% recreational excise tax - patients pay only the 6% sales tax. With a new 24% wholesale tax raising recreational prices in 2026, the medical savings grow.
Is the Michigan fee paid to the doctor or the state?
Both, separately. The $74.99 with code 75off is the telehealth certification paid to the provider; the $40 registration fee is paid to the Michigan CRA when you apply.
Why is a Michigan medical card cost-effective?
Because the card lasts two years, the $40 state fee works out to about $20 a year - and the 10% tax exemption plus 12-plant home grow can save regular users far more than the card costs.
