What is the cannabis stamping regime

The purpose of the cannabis stamping regime is to:

• show that the product was produced legally, and applicable duties are paid
• allow law enforcement agencies, retailers and consumers to more easily identify counterfeit and contraband products

Cannabis licensees that package cannabis products must affix cannabis excise stamps to the packaging of cannabis products intended for retail sale in Canada.

Products that meet the definition of low-THC cannabis products or prescription cannabis drug under the Excise Act, 2001, as well as cannabis products intended for export, are not required to be stamped.
