Antigua Marijuana Laws
the Antigua and Barbuda Medical Cannabis Authority have recently been created by the Government to purposely regulate and control the licensing of the cultivation, manufacturing, processing, extraction, import, export, testing, research, distribution, and sale of medicinal cannabis, as well as the use of cannabis for sacramental purposes. The law covers all individuals and organizations that are interested in starting or investing in medical marijuana. This is however limited to the use of the plant for medicinal and religious purposes. The use of marijuana has been widespread from skincare hair and beauty products to general health benefits. Some of the business opportunities include an Antigua Medical Cannabis Dispensary, Antigua Medical Cannabis Lounge, and the development of medical cannabis farms in Antigua.
