STATE COMPLIANCE GUIDE

Oregon Cannabis Compliance

A practical overview of Oregon marijuana packaging, labeling and required symbols.

Regulatory agency: Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission (OLCC).

Packaging requirements

Child-resistant & resealable

Cannabinoid products, concentrates and extracts must use certified resealable, continually child-resistant packaging or a qualifying exit package before final sale.

Product-specific exceptions

OAR 845-025-7020 excludes usable marijuana, usable hemp, immature marijuana plants and seeds from that child-resistant packaging requirement.

Confirm the correct classification for your product.

Product protection

Packaging must protect its contents from contamination and must not introduce toxic or harmful substances.

Truthful, appropriate design

Packaging must not contain false or misleading content. Review restrictions on packaging and labeling that appeal to minors.
