How Belgrade Patients Get Certified

Two Steps from Belgrade
to a Montana Medical
Marijuana Registry Card

Belgrade residents follow Montana's two-step DOR pathway — telehealth visit with a Montana-licensed physician, then apply at Montana's TAP portal. From Downtown Belgrade and Amsterdam to Manhattan and the airport corridor, every step happens from home.

1

Telehealth Visit with a Montana-Licensed Physician

Book a real-time video visit with a Montana-licensed physician (MD or DO) through this platform. Montana requires a physician — not a nurse practitioner — to complete the Physician Statement required for the cardholder application. The physician reviews your condition against Montana's qualifying conditions, which include cancer, glaucoma, HIV/AIDS, cachexia or wasting syndrome, severe or chronic pain, severe nausea, seizures including epilepsy, severe or persistent muscle spasms including multiple sclerosis, PTSD, Crohn's disease, hospice care, and others, administered by the Cannabis Control Division of the Montana Department of Revenue.

2

Apply at TAP Portal — Temp Card Same Day

After the physician completes your Physician Statement, apply through Montana's TAP portal at tap.dor.mt.gov, submitting the physician statement, a Montana ID, a photo, and the state fee. A temporary card is printable immediately from TAP after submission — allowing Belgrade patients to purchase at a licensed Montana dispensary right away. The permanent 1-year registry card is mailed upon DOR approval. Medical cardholders purchase at the reduced 4% state tax rate and may grow 4 mature plants and 4 seedlings at a private residence.
