Recreational marijuana dispensaries are illegal in Texas. Only licensed Compassionate Use Program dispensaries may operate under Texas Occupations Code Chapter 169, which allows low-THC cannabis for qualifying medical patients registered in the Compassionate Use Registry of Texas (CURT). Licensed dispensary organizations must verify patient registrations before selling. Dallas does not have separate zoning provisions for medical cannabis dispensaries as the state program is administered by DSHS.
Dallas prohibits cannabis dispensaries and retail sales. State law does not authorize the sale of marijuana for any purpose. Unauthorized cannabis sales operations face criminal prosecution including felony charges for distribution. CBD products derived from hemp with less than 0.3% THC may be sold through regular retail channels.
Any cannabis sales: felony charges. Distribution penalties vary by quantity. Property used for sales may be subject to forfeiture.
