Nebraska Medical Cannabis Commission Moving Forward With Application, Licensing Fees

Regulations permit up to four cultivators, four product manufacturers and 12 dispensaries

The Nebraska Medical Cannabis Commission will move forward with requiring fees for registered cannabis establishments and applicants in the coming weeks.

Commissioners released the first draft of updated regulations Monday. The proposal would create a $5,000 application fee, license and renewal fees based on license type, a $1,500 relocation fee and a $13,000 fee for participation in the state’s seed-to-sale inventory tracking system. There would also be a $250 fee to license a new product, plus a $100 renewal fee.

The latest proposal would no longer include a specific license type for transporters. Instead, as commissioners hinted previously, product manufacturers could apply for a transporter certification to be part of their business.

Proposed fees

Initial and renewal fees per license type would be as follows:

  • Cultivators — $20,000 for a new license; $23,500 annual renewal fee.
  • Transporter — $10,000 for a new certification.
  • Product manufacturers — $20,000 for a new license; $23,500 annual renewal fee if the licensee does not have a transporter certification or $28,500 if the licensee does.
  • Dispensary — $15,000 for a new license; $18,000 annual renewal fee.
