Questions
Can I get a Kentucky medical marijuana card online?
Not the first time. Kentucky requires an in-person exam for your first certification. Renewals can usually be done by video.
What do I need for the video visit?
A photo ID, proof that you live in Kentucky (your license usually works), a phone or computer with a camera, and a quiet private place.
Is an online certification as valid as an in-person one?
In Kentucky, only renewals can be done online. Your first certification must be in person.
