To protect consumers and ensure responsible cannabis use, Montana enforces strict packaging and labeling regulations for all cannabis products sold in the state. Below is a detailed breakdown of these key requirements:
Child-Resistant & Resealable Packaging
All cannabis products must be packaged in child-resistant containers that meet federal safety standards to prevent accidental ingestion.
Multi-use products must be resealable to maintain product integrity and prevent spills.
Opaque & Non-Enticing Design Standards
Packaging must be completely opaque, preventing visibility of the product inside.
Bright colors, cartoon imagery, and other marketing elements designed to appeal to minors are strictly prohibited.
Comprehensive Labeling Requirements
Each cannabis product must display clear and accurate information, including:
The seller’s business name, logo, or design mark
Product name and type
Total THC and CBD content per package and per serving
Serving size and dosage information
Full list of ingredients
Mandatory Warning Labels
All cannabis packaging must prominently display the following warnings:
"WARNING: Consumption of marijuana may cause anxiety, agitation, paranoia, psychosis, and cannabinoid hyperemesis."
"WARNING: Consumption of marijuana by pregnant women may result in fetal injury and low birth weight."
"WARNING: Consumption of marijuana by nursing mothers may result in infant hyperactivity and poor cognitive function."
By following these compliance guidelines, dispensaries and manufacturers can ensure their products meet Montana's cannabis regulations while maintaining consumer safety and trust.
