The law covers three main pillars: coffeeshops for collective cultivation and distribution, private personal cultivation of five plants (tolerated, not legalised) for personal supply, and strict consumer protections designed to safeguard public health. Clubs operate as registered licensed coffeeshop entities, limited to a number determined by the municipal license members with fully auditable accounts and mandatory compliance reporting. Members must be at least 18 years old and may receive weed, hash, pre-rolls, and edibles up to five grams per purchase per day and no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid per month, with all dispensing electronically recorded.

Violations of these rules can lead to license revocation, substantial fines, and criminal penalties for operators. Individuals may also hold up to available at licensed seed shops for personal growing purposes.
