Virginia Cannabis Licensing
Coming Soon!
Virginia has approved a regulated adult-use retail cannabis market, with license applications expected to open in fall 2026 and legal sales beginning July 1, 2027, all overseen by the Virginia Cannabis Control Authority (CCA) — a separate agency from the Virginia ABC Authority. We’re preparing a full cannabis licensing service and tracking the CCA’s rules as they’re finalized. Want to be first in line? Get on our early-interest list and we’ll reach out the moment the process is published.
ABC Consulting helps you understand what license applies to your business, what information is required, and what steps need to happen before approval. We manage the details so you can focus on opening, operating, and growing your business.
