Welcome to the Natural Medicine Division
Natural medicine regulation
The licensing and regulation of natural medicines in Colorado falls under two state agencies: the Department of Revenue (DOR) and the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA).
The Natural Medicine Division in the DOR will license and regulate natural medicine businesses – healing centers, cultivations, manufacturers, testing facilities, and their owners and employees.
DORA will regulate and license facilitators of natural medicine services. Folks interested in becoming a licensed facilitator may visit the DORA Natural Medicine web page for more information on licensing requirements.
Where we are now
We will begin accepting applications Dec. 31, 2024!
The final rules are in effect, and can also be accessed on the Secretary of State’s website.
Final fees were adopted on Oct. 25, 2024.
Recordings and other materials are available in the Natural Medicine Public Resources folder and on NMD’s Rulemaking page.
