CCD
Target: Mid 2027New Mexico CCD-aware dispensary platform
Native compliance hooks for New Mexico Cannabis Control Division rules. NMS2S seed-to-sale reporting (the New Mexico Seed-to-Sale System, which replaced BioTrack on 2026-09-04), 14% adult-use cannabis excise tax + New Mexico gross receipts tax math (5.25% to 9.4375% by GRT location code — there is no single state base a store pays), CCD reconciliation cadence, and the medical / adult-use lane separation New Mexico requires.
Regulator
New Mexico Cannabis Control Division (CCD)
https://www.rld.nm.gov/cannabis ↗Your rules, handled
New Mexico’s cannabis retail rules — what the CCD requires at the counter, how sales are reported to the state, and what the taxes are — are researched from the regulator’s own pages and coded into the register. You run the shop; the rules are handled at the sale.
At the register, as of September 2026: the 14% cannabis excise on adult-use sales (rising a point each July 1 through 2030), plus gross receipts tax at your location’s rate, up to about 9.4%; medical sales are outside the excise.
Coverage here — honestly
New Mexico coverage is written against CCD rules: the bulletins, NMS2S as the state’s mandated track-and-trace for both medical and adult-use since 2026-09-04, the year-over-year excise step-up to 18% by 2030, the gross-receipts-tax variability per municipality, and the microbusiness license-class topology. We keep it current as the CCD moves. A direct NMS2S integration is not built, and we say so before you sign rather than after.

New Mexico cannabis retail — common questions
