Yes, adults 21 and over with a valid Idaho driver’s license or other government photo ID can buy cannabis at any licensed Spokane dispensary. But cannabis remains illegal in Idaho, and carrying it across the state line — to Coeur d’Alene, Post Falls or anywhere else — is illegal under both Idaho and federal law. Use what you buy in Washington, on private property where it is allowed.
Spokane’s dispensaries see plenty of shoppers from North Idaho and Montana — reviewers mention driving over from Montana to stock up. Here is how to stay within the law. For Idaho’s possession penalties and what happens if you are stopped with cannabis, see our Idaho marijuana laws guide.
Buying in Spokane With an Out-of-State ID
Washington dispensaries accept any valid, unexpired government photo ID for adults 21 and over, including Idaho and Montana driver’s licenses and passports. Visitors follow the same limits as residents: up to 1 ounce of flower, 7 grams of concentrate, 16 ounces of solid edibles and 72 ounces of infused liquids.
Why You Can't Take It Back to Idaho
Idaho has not legalized cannabis for recreational or medical use, so possession is illegal there, including products bought legally in Washington. Crossing a state line with cannabis is also a federal offense.
Where Visitors Can Use Cannabis in Washington
