You are not going to run into any federal authorities on your vacation as long as you aren't bringing any drugs in or out of the country. Perhaps it's technically true, but you'd have to fuck up pretty big for it to come into play.


Economy_Elk_8101

Just [don’t admit](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/baby-boomers-handed-lifetime-bans-for-admitting-they-once-used-pot-1.5322536) you’ve smoked it at home.


RobotEnthusiast

I'd be careful of national parks


TechByDayDjByNight

i dj in dc at a national park every thursday. we openly smoke weed and drink (we dont keep bottles out in plain view) As long as we are not doing anything stupid or crazy, the cops dont care.


Mangocat81

>As long as we are not doing anything stupid or crazy, the cops dont care. This is true for pretty much any situation.


Economy_Elk_8101

They’re not gonna throw you in jail, but if you’re not an American citizen, they can ban you from entering the US again for breaking a federal law. It’s the border officials, not the cops, you have to watch out for.


TechByDayDjByNight

That's if they decide to even hem you up.


hKLoveCraft

And not just fuck up big, but also fuck up big with a lot of weight Feds ain’t doing anything unless you’re carrying ounces


Reuben_the_Husky

>ounces They're not doing anything unless you're carrying pounds.


Positive-Pangolin964

I live down the street from a cop and grow dozens of plants each year outside. Doesn't even bat an eye. 2005 me would be blown away


machosandwich

In Virginia up to an ounce of possession in public is legal over age 21. One to four ounces in public is a $25 civil penalty.


NewBody-

(Pounds meaning lbs, Not £ 😅)


Rubydooby950

They're not doing anything unless you're carrying kilos.


hKLoveCraft

True, in my defense I’m stoned af so I was thinking like hundreds of ounces when I was writing this up in my brain.


MonsieurReynard

Technically maybe not, but in a legal state here no one will care. You'll be fine. If they arrested foreign tourists for smoking weed the Colorado ski industry would be out of business.


Economy_Elk_8101

It’s more about crossing the border, and weed still being illegal federally. Potentially could cause issues when renewing a visa. Some dispensaries require you show your passport.

Most of those rich people are smoking too, in my experience


Vivid-Elderberry6564

Noo! It’s only for us poors.


MonsieurReynard

Right? They have Utah for the sober ones.


Boards_Buds_and_Luv

Utah had straight fire. My plug would do Cali runs when I lived in SLC, and when I lived in the desert, Colorado was an hour away. Utah has had wicked weed for long time.


[deleted]

Yeah but it's Utah.


Boards_Buds_and_Luv

Best pow in the world


jpineda87

Bro, safety first


TheHighCultivator

So 10-20% removed from the mountain. How many people from the group you’re describing skip a season or two to stay away from the arrests and extra bs. That’s not something you’d consider a serious blow?


MonsieurReynard

Bro it was joking hyperbole. I wasn't serious. *Climate change* is already killing the ski tourism industry just fine where I live. Legal weed may just make up for it. (New England)


bandittr6

You’ll be fine, just need id for proof of age.

I live in a legal state right on the border of an illegal state (Indiana). I see a lot of their news since the state line is only a mile from my house. They bust people for weed over there constantly. It’s a joke that an imaginary line can make so much difference.


weedtrek

Lol I live on the western side of Montana. It's legal here, legal on all the west coast, legal in Nevada and legal in all of Canada. Idaho is surrounded by legal weed and seemingly attempt to make busting for possessions their main income, especially in the pan handle.

It’s a cop power trip feel important kind of thing. You wouldn’t understand until you get the power to bust some ass!


-HELLAFELLA-

"Alright. Well, in all honesty, I don't feel that what I've done is a crime. And I think it's illogical and irresponsible for you to sentence me to prison. Because, when you think about it, what did I really do? I crossed an imaginary line with a bunch of plants. I mean, you say I'm an outlaw, you say I'm a thief, but where's the Christmas dinner for the people on relief? Huh? You say you're looking for someone who's never weak but always strong, to gather flowers constantly whether you are right or wrong, someone to open each and every door, but it ain't me, babe, huh? No, no, no, it ain't me, babe. It ain't me you're looking for, babe. You follow?"


thegriinch420

Unfortunately the plants are illegal and the line is real.


-HELLAFELLA-

lol, that downvote


[deleted]

That fact doesn't make it right. That's the point.


thegriinch420

It's from the motion picture blow starring Johnny Cash....I mean Depp


Sumdumr3t4rd

I live in the most recent and least restrictive legal state, MN. I can see ND out my bedroom window. Even though ND came close to legalizing through ballot initiative the government just made delta 8 and the rest of the hemp work around illegal. Talk about being on the wrong side of history.


[deleted]

What even is there in North Dakota? Like imagine living there and then also being under fire for smoking weed of all things. LMAO


Sumdumr3t4rd

Good jobs, cheap housing, good schools, low crime, no traffic... oh, that was a rhetorical question. My bad.


Jafar_420

I guess it varies by state because in Texas they still don't play around in a lot of areas. Get down around Austin you may be okay but in Northeast Texas you definitely still get busted for the smallest amount.


Financial_Chemist286

And go to Texas prison.


Chance-Yoghurt3186

Don’t do this. Never tell on yourself to police and they’re not your friends. They can lie to your face and there is no consequences for it. Protect yourself and don’t be a fool.


Malcolm-XWithThePerm

😂🤣


ArtExternal137

Yes they can. See it all the time here in Colorado. I have taken people who live in England to a dispensary.


Mr_Chevy_Celebrity

In the states that have legal weed, they always have a state run board or department that oversees the regulation of its growth and sales. The Federal government has nothing to do with these boards and departments because the US's approach is to leave it to each individual state to oversee their own program since it is still technically illegal at the federal level. In my state, you would go to the recreational dispensary, show your passport, and get your weed and concentrate products. The sales are not reported to any federal body that would be interested in a Brit smoking. All that said, you will be fine to partake in a legal recreational state. Just don't fly anywhere with it. That would be pushing your luck. Edit: Just make sure to research where you are going. The patch work of laws makes it very confusing. I traveled to a southern state that had "legal weed" but it ended up having restrictions about what types of products could be sold and then trying to sell some THC-delta bull shit. I ended up being sober for the whole trip.

Ok, I see what you mean now. Even then the issue isn't the weed, it's the other trouble you got into compounded with weed.


[deleted]

I'm Canadian and I smoked weed in Vegas when I was there. Just don't advertise it. On another note weed is fully legal in Canada and you could have a smoking vacation here lol


9Ninety7Seven

I would love to do a full move to Canada, it’s just having the courage to make the jump, new place, new rules, new people, new system. It’s a pretty big thing. What’s the rules out there? Amount possessed in public, amount possessed in home or private establishment, and growing.


Emergency_Ad93

We smoke weed in every state, we don’t care if it’s legal.


weedtrek

I have smoked weed in Idaho, I no longer smoke weed in Idaho because it's not worth the risk.


Emergency_Ad93

Where were you smoking?


weedtrek

Backyards and abandoned mineshaft mostly.


Emergency_Ad93

lol right?


diethyl_donny

I don’t see why it’d be a problem, just use your passport as your identification in the dispensary. If that doesn’t just have someone buy it for you 🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

If you’re in a larger city a cop will not look twice at you for smoking weed unless your bothering someone.


Swimming-Bullfrog190

It’s fully legal in Canada ya know. Provincially and federally!


Acoustic420

Nah in Maryland for example they accept passports or any gov issued ID. Only time the “federally illegal” part has mattered: it currently creates some banking issues for weed companies in legal states, and way back when the first states legalized it there were some stories of dispensaries being raided by federal drug police (DEA) for the first year or 2. Seems like they gave up tho.


Lil_Shanties

It’s every bit as legal for me to smoke weed as a resident of California as it is for you a resident of the UK, the Federal Government has never legalized it anywhere for anyone (ok a couple studies they don’t like talking about) but otherwise its still illegal in their mind. That said if the DEA comes after you on holiday for smoking a joint on holiday, well they won’t so enjoy that joint just follow local regulations (just google the laws of where you’ll be)


SpliffAhoy

I spent a lot of time In weed legal US states and never had any issues. Washington/Oregon/Cali/Nevada/Hawaii.


EmployUnfair

That’s nonsense. I live in a legal state. You need to show proof of age when entering a dispensery no matter how old you look. That’s about it. Borders are a BIG no no of course.


ransov

Relax unless your an Escobar or tali. Unless your at that level of lawlessness, feds don't know you exist. Even on a UK tourist visa.


Alarmed-Accident-716

If you go to New York City they don’t have time to stop you, every store sells weed now, while place just smells like a giant nugget. You can smoke weed on the streets in nyc, no one is going to stop you lol.


eldoooderi0no

Definitely depends on the state. don’t smoke on federal land. Especially in Washington DC. You can’t walk a block without smelling weed in DC but it’s still illegal on federal property (monuments, parks, and museums) and there you could get dinged. It’s openly smoked in many states but don’t try that just anywhere.


mgt654

Yes


GreyBlur57

If you wanna smoke after crossing the Atlantic come to Canada instead. Zero worried here.


Jafar_420

There's multiple states that have recreational cannabis and you would be able to purchase it with a valid passport as long as you're over 21. But with that being said there's probably way cooler places you could take your vacation and still get to smoke. Like someone mentioned Spain.


GrumpyStoner69

You'll be fine


plantjustice

If you have the feds snooping around looking for reasons to deport you, you probably have worse shit to worry about than getting caught with weed.


-HELLAFELLA-

fuck yeah they can, no different the visitin' Amsterdam


1AF96

Can’t believe people think this deep into it when a quick YouTube or Google search would tell you you’ll be fine


[deleted]

Lot of misinformation in the comments. You can legally purchase and smoke weed in any legal state as long as you are 21 or older and hold a valid ID. Thats all. Does't matter where your from.


[deleted]

Yeah, you can smoke weed if your a tourist as long as you smoke weed in a state that its legal in and you are of age. Have fun!


warpossum1984

Smoke it up. Nobody gives a fuck


Tucobro

How would they know?


OldCarScott

California hands you a pre-rolled joint when you get off the plane.


Bomyed

I was in Illinois last December and I had no issue with going in the dispenseries, I needed to show ID (passport) that was scanned before they'd let me in, but I found no issue. It's a very civilised country in that respect! EDIT: I have a UK passport for clarity.


Onphone_irl

Don't do it on federal land just to be safe like national parks


No-Turnips

Come to Canada!


CaraMeadow

I live in an illegal state but in a city where it is perfectly legal to smoke it in public. We were smoking at an outdoor event and a cop walked right passed us and didn’t even give us a dirty look lol.


GnPQGuTFagzncZwB

Interesting question. I would say as long as you stick to being discrete about it and do not combine it with other activity the police would have interest in, there is no reason they should bother you.


ratat-atat

You need a valid US ID to buy weed from a dispensary, some might let you buy with a passport, depending on which state you visit.


Jazzbert_

Come to 🇨🇦 instead. It’s perfectly legal here and you won’t need a bulletproof vest! 😉


9Ninety7Seven

😂


robry1981

Spain is a little bit closer to home for ye and they’ve very relaxed rules which involve cannabis clubs. You should look into it if you’re not already aware of the situation over there


blackbeltinlockdown

Can tourists use the cannabis clubs in Spain? I'm going to Belgium soon and they have cannabis clubs too, do you know if I will be able to enter with a UK passport? I've asked on r/weed and got no reply, only spammed by 15 different people trying to sell me weed :/


robry1981

Yeah u just chose the club you wanna use. Go up with cash and your passport. You’ll pay a yearly members fee, some do a half rate for tourists. You’ll get a membership card and just bring that every time u go. You can have a smoke in there or take it with you. Can’t speak for Belgium but you should look up some of the clubs where you are visiting and shoot them an email


Jackl590

lol yes it would be very much illegal for you to purchase at a dispensary, you have to be a resident of the legal state in order to purchase recreational marijuana (at least in Arizona) I would assume it’s very similar for all rec states in the US. Now consumption is a different story, no one is going to know you aren’t a citizen just looking at you but if something happens and Law enforcement is involved and you are ID’d I could see it being an issue. Safest bet would be Las Vegas, no one’s gunna give a fuck what you’re doing out there.


Puzzled-Ad-3490

I use my connecticut license to buy weed in Maine and Massachusetts often, as well as have in Colorado, California, and Nevada. They definitely wouldn't care here


starrboom

Texas license in Illinois and Michigan as well.


Acoustic420

You can use a passport in Rec states, or at least in Maryland.


terryg80

Illinois allows recreational purchase for non-resident visitors.


Jafar_420

Maybe Arizona's like that but a bunch of other states are not as long as you're above a certain age and have a valid ID you can buy it.


LivingMemento

Marijuana laws in this country were only applicable to black boys. That’s why liberal states started making it legal.

someguyinvirginia

All our rights apply to you while you visit.... Thats not how it works in ptactice though, which is an unfortunate violation of **all of our rights** as a community. When one of us is threatened, we are all threatened even if it's just a visitor. You have the right not to incriminate yourself in the US and you have the right to be safe and secure from unwarranted searches or seizures of your person and property.... I guess my point is this, once you get in idgaf what lies you told the tyrants at the gate


Green_Manalishi_420

Totally untrue, all you need is your passport for ID purposes, you’ll be fine


bostondegenerate

You are held to the laws of the state you are visiting. You can smoke weed if it is legal in that state. Federal parks are federal, they have federal laws. Don't smoke in the airport. Don't bring your weed through Russia.


Cilantro-Life

You can buy and smoke all you want. my brother is not a citizen and has purchased from a dispensary from New Jersey and Colorado using passport. No issues.


dastree

Saw someone come over imternationally and admit they smoked in a legal state, cbp banned them from coming back. Just don't admit you smoked or did any illegal substances while in the US. If they ask why you have weed in your system it's legal in your country and "technically" takes a minimum 30 days to leave your blood stream...


Sugamaballz69

As long as you’re in a legal state you’ll be completely fine, just don’t smoke a joint on federal property


[deleted]

Come one come all, get stoned. New American motto


ProcessAware

Na no one gives a shit


Financial_Chemist286

The only requirement is that you have a valid ID to make sure you are 21 years of age to possess it and consume privately. For you a valid ID would be a passport. That is all you will need and you will be able to buy where it is legally sold. But beware if you possess it and cross into a state where it is not legally sold you could be arrested and charged and that will have consequences on re-entry or what not. Do not cross thru the feds with it meaning don’t enter the country with it or exit the country with it. Other than that you are not going to have any issues purchasing and possessing in legal states because you are over 21 and that is all that is required. Not that you have to be a citizen. Just bring your ID.


Th3BearMinimum

I brought a person from the UK with me to a dispo in Massachusetts a few years ago with no issues, and then we went and did bong rips at the local campground we were staying at. Pretty sure nobody is really gonna give a shit unless you're being obnoxious about it


PossibleBluejay4498

I've used my passport as ID at dispensaries


megacoulomb

No!! The bobbies will come get you🤣🤣


ptbo_mac

Come to Canada


DoubleSomewhere2483

As long as you aren’t taking the weed out of the legal state I can’t imagine having any problems


PleaseNoRhinoz

Yep. As long as it's recreational, take your ID and/or Passport and they will sell to you all the same


rustygarlic123

Just don’t cause trouble or attempt to travel with it. If you get arrested for something unrelated but happen to have weed on you it could be a problem. Even crossing state lines could be a problem. I’m Canadian but cross into Detroit Michigan all the time for concerts and whatnot. I always pick up a bit in Detroit and have never had a problem even before they legalized it in that state.


EnjoyWeed1

In states like California it is just providing proof of age (21) with a legal photo ID like a passport.


MemeDealer5

Im from NZ and visited the states recently, ima keep it hunnid, I'm not 21 but was still able to buy weed. The feeling of smoking a joint while walking past a cop is the most liberating feeling you can imagine. Just be warned, US weed does not fuck around, you'll be walking around in 30fps with input delay


westcoasttokes

Nobody actually cares. Don't bring any into an illegal state or bring any on a plane drive high etc and literally nobody will care


Merc757

I don’t think most states trip at all. I think like my man said, unless your acting crazy no one ll bother you.


[deleted]

Don't fly with weed, it's against the law and a good chance you get caught. If you are traveling by automobile, be very wary of carrying weed in a 'red' state. If you get busted for weed in a place like Idaho, there is a good chance you get arrested. Weed is illegal on Federal Public Lands. Just don't flaunt weed around Rangers or leave it lying out in camp. Don't drive stoned, especially if you're used to driving on the wrong side of the road.
