Press Release
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office of Field Operations is reminding travellers planning trips across the border into Minnesota or North Dakota to leave their medicinal marijuana at home.
Although medical marijuana is legal in many U.S. states and Canada, the sale, possession, production, and distribution of marijuana all remain illegal under U.S. federal law.
Consequently, crossing with a valid medical marijuana prescription is prohibited–and potentially could result in fines, apprehension, or both.
The CBP site has been completely redesigned to help users quickly access it.
It also is optimized for access by smart phones and makes use of a new content delivery network that will improve access internationally.
