Georgia maintains strict laws on recreational cannabis, which remains illegal. A limited low-THC oil program was established in 2015 (Haleigh's Hope Act), expanded over time to allow registered patients with qualifying conditions access to CBD products containing less than 0.3–5% THC (depending on updates). Cultivation and higher-THC products are prohibited.
