What is the Medical Cannabis Certificate used for?
With the Medical Cannabis Certificate, you also have the option to be treated with all cannabinoids.
This way, you won't have problems using Cannabis (THC or CBD), even in minimal amounts, because your consumption will be under "medical prescription". Additionally, you will have a medical recommendation that will establish the guidelines for the treatment, and you can carry CANNABIS or CBD in public without being penalized or fined.
Moreover, if you drive, you will be exempt from paying the penalty of the drug test, as last year the Constitutional Court endorsed them, except in cases where a doctor has "prescribed" it and it does not affect your driving ability.
Therefore, if you want to take a plane and carry your medication outside Spanish territory, you will need to carry the medical recommendation along with a therapeutic use certificate. It is crucial to have the certificate renewed annually as it also includes the issue date.
Where can I use the Medical Cannabis Certificate?
The Medical Cannabis Certificate will be sealed and signed by the doctor and is valid in the countries of the Schengen Agreement.
How often is the Medical Cannabis Certificate renewed?
The therapeutic use certificate is renewed at least with an annual follow-up visit. This ensures the safety of the users.
