Before you drive over
Bring a valid government photo ID — a Texas license is fine, and you must be 21 or older. Cannabis bought in New Mexico has to stay in New Mexico: carrying it back across the state line into Texas is still a criminal offense, and driving under the influence is illegal in both states. Most border shops take cash or debit; card acceptance varies.
