You need to renew your Arizona medical marijuana card every two years. The state requires all patients to submit a new application before their current card expires. Your card shows an expiration date printed right on it. Mark your calendar about 90 days before that date. This will give you plenty of time to complete the renewal process without letting your card lapse. The two-year renewal cycle applies to all Arizona medical marijuana patients, regardless of which city you live in.

• You could choose another online service in Arizona, though these alternatives often charge higher fees and may take several extra days to process your renewal application. Some of these services also require multiple steps and additional phone calls, which can make the experience more time-consuming than necessary for Surprise residents.
• Another option is scheduling an in-person appointment with a medical marijuana doctor at a clinic in Surprise. However, this approach typically involves driving to the office, sitting in a waiting room, and paying more expensive consultation fees. The in-person route also means working around the clinic’s limited office hours rather than completing your renewal on your own schedule.

Yes, you can renew your Arizona medical marijuana card even after it expires. The state allows you to submit a renewal application at any time, whether your card is still active or has already expired. Although, once your card expires, you cannot legally purchase or possess medical marijuana until your renewal is approved and you receive your new card. This means there will be a gap in your access to medical cannabis during the processing period.

To avoid any interruption in your ability to buy medical marijuana, we recommend starting your renewal process 30 to 90 days before your expiration date. The Arizona Department of Health Services typically processes renewal applications within 10 business days, though it can sometimes take longer during busy periods.

If you’re a patient in Surprise and your card has already expired, don’t worry. You can still apply for renewal by submitting a new application through the state’s online portal. You’ll need to provide an updated physician certification, pay the renewal fee, and upload a current photo.

Once approved, you’ll be able to resume purchasing medical marijuana from licensed dispensaries. Keep track of your expiration date going forward so you can renew on time and maintain continuous access to your medicine.
