About the Marihuana Retailers Excise (MRE) Tax

Michigan voters approved the legalization of the recreational use of Marihuana for adults 21 years of age and older. The resulting legislation known as the Michigan Regulation and Taxation of Marihuana Act (MRTMA) imposes an excise tax of 10% on retail Marihuana sales in addition to a 6% sales tax.  Both the Marihuana Retailers Excise (MRE) Tax of 10% and sales tax of 6% are administered by the Department of Treasury.
