Requirements are as follows:

A medical marijuana patient must be 18 years of age or older
Only patients who can prove Virginia residency can apply for the medical cannabis program (personal driver’s license, Government ID)
Virginia residents must also have medical records showing a diagnosis that qualifies for medical marijuana cards by a licensed doctor.

A caregiver in Virginia must be designated by the medical marijuana patient to be considered for approval. The caregiver must then prove their Virginia residency with a valid driver’s license or state identification card. A caregiver can only assist two patients at a time with medical cannabis products.

A caregiver applying for a minor patient must include a copy of the patient’s birth certificate and be charged a registration fee of 25 USD. Once the state approves, the caregiver can purchase medical marijuana for the patient.
