An Act to Exempt Certain Sales and Transfers of Adult Use Cannabis from Excise Tax

Complete·6/25/25

Maine LD1654 extends the deadline for paying excise taxes on cannabis sales and transfers.

Maine LD1654 amends the law to allow adult cannabis cultivation facility licensees to remit excise taxes 120 days after a sale or transfer, rather than monthly. This change applies to sales to other cannabis licensees and transfers to other licensed cannabis activities. The bill modifies the due date for tax payments, providing more flexibility for licensees.
