Tax stack
Excise
10% Maine adult-use cannabis sales tax (36 MRSA §4923) — applied at retail. Medical patient sales exempt from this tax.
Sales / Use
5.5% Maine state sales-and-use tax — adult-use sales pay 10% INSTEAD of (not on top of) the 5.5%; medical sales pay nothing.
Local option
No local cannabis sales tax — Maine cannabis tax line is state-only. Auto-derived per store address (no city/county add-on math required).

We serve here — honestly
We don’t operate stores in Maine. We do follow OCP bulletins, the medical-caregiver-vs-storefront topology (Maine is unusually broad here), the medical-vs-adult-use 10-vs-exempt tax split, and the METRC-cadence reconciliation requirements. CannAgent ships ME support with the same compliance discipline we apply to WSLCB — and we’ll say it directly when something’s off.
