Yes. Any adult 21 or older with a valid, unexpired government photo ID — including an out-of-state driver’s license or passport — can buy cannabis at any licensed Bend dispensary. Visitors can buy up to 2 ounces of flower, 10 grams of concentrates and 16 ounces of edibles a day, pay 20% tax inside city limits, and can’t use it in public, on national forest land or take it out of Oregon.

ID, Taxes and Paying

Bring the physical card; out-of-state IDs are accepted, but expired IDs are refused. Recreational purchases inside Bend city limits carry Oregon’s 17% state tax plus the 3% city tax Bend voters approved in 2016. Most shops take cash and debit, a few are cash only, and reviewers say Tokyo Starfish SE 3rd and Cannabis Nation Sunriver take credit cards.

Where Visitors Can Use Cannabis

Only on private property where it’s allowed. Public use — Drake Park, the Deschutes River Trail, the Old Mill District and downtown sidewalks — is a Class B violation under ORS 475C.377. Mt. Bachelor and the Deschutes National Forest are federal land, where cannabis is illegal. Oregon has no licensed lounges, and most hotels ban smoking.
