  • The exemption applies only when the cannabis was obtained through another state's medical cannabis program and the person holds a valid card from that state for that specific cannabis
  • Current law makes bringing controlled substances into Florida without authorization a second-degree felony, third-degree felony, or first-degree misdemeanor depending on the substance schedule; those penalties remain unchanged for non-exempt individuals
