Understanding New Jersey Cannabis Laws

New Jersey has embraced both medical and recreational cannabis for adults aged 21 and over, making high-quality, lab-tested cannabis products more accessible than ever. Whether you're using cannabis for wellness or recreation, New Jersey offers a wide range of regulated products that suit different needs.

Recreational cannabis sales officially began on April 21, 2022, after the passage of the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization (CREAMM) Act. This law laid the foundation for a regulated cannabis industry, ensuring that consumers have access to safe, legal cannabis.

Here are some key guidelines to keep in mind:

  • Age requirement: You must be 21 or older to purchase and possess recreational cannabis.
  • Purchase limits: Recreational users can buy up to 1 ounce of cannabis flower (or its equivalent in other forms) per transaction.
  • Possession limits: Adults are allowed to possess up to 6 ounces of cannabis or cannabis products.
  • Consumption restrictions: Cannabis consumption is only allowed in private residences or designated areas—public use is prohibited.
  • Driving regulations: It is illegal to consume cannabis while driving or to operate a vehicle under the influence of cannabis.

Additionally, New Jersey has introduced new rules that expand the range of ingestible cannabis products available, including items like baked goods, chocolates, and drinks. These products will be subject to strict regulations, including THC limits, safety testing, and proper labeling to ensure responsible consumption.

Taxes on Recreational Cannabis

New Jersey has implemented a multi-tiered tax system for recreational cannabis sales, applying both state and local taxes to the industry. Here’s a quick breakdown:

State Taxes

  • Sales Tax: Recreational cannabis is subject to a 6.625% state sales tax.
  • Social Equity Excise Fee (SEEF): As of January 1, 2023, cannabis cultivators are charged $1.52 per ounce. This fee helps fund social equity programs but is not directly charged to retail consumers.

Local Taxes
Municipalities can also impose additional taxes on cannabis businesses:

  • Up to 2% for cultivators, manufacturers, and retailers.
  • Up to 1% for wholesalers.

These taxes are based on the sales receipts and are paid directly to the local municipality.

New Jersey's tax setup for recreational cannabis has changed since legalization, starting with lower rates that gradually increased to match market prices better. This approach helps state and local governments benefit from the booming cannabis industry while backing social equity initiatives.

Medical Marijuana in New Jersey

New Jersey’s Medicinal Cannabis Program, established in 2010, allows patients with qualifying conditions to access cannabis through licensed Alternative Treatment Centers (ATCs). Regulated by the Cannabis Regulatory Commission, the program ensures that medical cannabis products meet high safety standards. Medical cannabis is available in a variety of forms, including high-CBD and high-THC strains, designed to address conditions such as chronic pain, anxiety, and seizures. Patients need a recommendation from a registered healthcare provider to enroll in the Medicinal Cannabis Program.

NJ Medical Marijuana Regulations

To participate in New Jersey’s medical marijuana program, patients must:

  • Have a qualifying medical condition diagnosed by a registered healthcare provider.
  • Maintain a bona fide relationship with their healthcare practitioner.
  • Be a New Jersey resident.

Registered patients can purchase up to 3 ounces of cannabis per 30-day period. Qualifying conditions include cancer, chronic pain, PTSD, and more, with the list expanding over time to include conditions such as anxiety and migraines. Patients are required to renew their registration annually, and the state now offers a free digital ID card for easier access.

How to Get a Medical Marijuana Card

Participating in the medical program gives patients access to regulated products, often with more options and legal protections than recreational users. 

Getting a medical marijuana card in New Jersey is simple:

  1. See a doctor registered with the New Jersey Medicinal Cannabis Program (NJMCP) to certify your condition.
  2. Register with the NJMCP using the information provided by your doctor.
  3. Upload proof of New Jersey residency, ID, and a recent photograph.
  4. Pay the registration fee and select a dispensary.

Once approved, you’ll receive a digital card within 48 hours. Cards must be renewed annually by consulting with your physician. Registered medical patients enjoy a daily 20% discount at Nightjar, making it one of the most generous in the state and the best among recreational shops in Bloomfield. Just be sure to show your card at checkout to take advantage!

Yes, in New Jersey, you must be at least 21 years old with a valid government-issued photo ID to purchase recreational cannabis.

We accept nearly all forms of government-issued photo identification, including: your NJ driver’s license or a driver’s license issued by any other state, territory, or possession of the United States (we see you, Guam), a US passport or other country’s passport, a New Jersey identification card issued by the NJ motor vehicle commission, or any other identification card issued by a state, territory, possession of the US or the District of Columbia that includes your photo, name, birth date and a physical description.

We accept cash and most debit cards. Debit card transactions carry a fee required by the payment processor. There are also two ATMs available in the store for your convenience.

In New Jersey, adults aged 21+ can purchase up to 1 ounce (28 grams) of cannabis flower or its equivalent in other forms (such as edibles or concentrates) per transaction. 

You sure can and we’re really pumped you’re coming to visit us! Please see the question above for types of IDs we can accept, but be advised that it is illegal to transport cannabis over state lines.

In New Jersey, recreational cannabis purchases are subject to a 6.625% state sales tax and a local 2% cannabis tax in Bloomfield, bringing the total tax to 8.625% for cannabis items.

We’re so glad you asked. You can buy up to one ounce of cannabis or the equivalent of some combination of cannabis and cannabis products like edibles, vapes, and concentrates. Your budtender can explain this to you more thoroughly, and our online ordering menu will only allow you to put the maximum amount allowed by law into your cart. If you get an error message while shopping online, you’re over the limit.

You don’t need a medical marijuana card to purchase recreational cannabis at Nightjar, but if you are a medical patient with a valid medical card, you’ll receive 20% off at Nightjar every day. 

Absolutely, yes, and preordering is a great option if you’re looking for a quick in-and-out experience. And there’s more great news: same-day pick-up is available 7 days a week! Submit your order online and select “pick up” – you will receive a text from us when your order is ready. No prepayment is required; orders are normally fulfilled within a few minutes and available for pickup before closing. Simply show your ID at the door, and a staffer will direct you to the pick-up line to cash out and receive your order.

Orders that are not picked up by the time we close will be canceled, and you will have to place a new order another time.

We’re really bummed to tell you this, but we can’t hold orders overnight or guarantee availability of inventory for a later date. Your best bet is to place your order on a day you know you will be available to come pick it up. If you see something you want on our menu, snag it before it’s gone! No time like the present.

For recreational customers, this is a hard no. Eventually, the state will license consumption lounges where consumers aged 21+ will be able to consume their cannabis products (looking forward to it!). For now, you’ll just have to keep it on private property.

Yes! Nightjar is committed to offering our customers great value. We regularly have special offers and discounts on our cannabis products. Be sure to check our deals page or ask our team in-store for the latest promotions.
