Membership starts at around no membership fee — walk-in access with valid ID, with a minimum age requirement of 18. Tourists are welcome — no membership or residency required, just valid ID (18+) The concept behind a cannabis café is straightforward: adults pool resources to collectively cultivate weed, hash, pre-rolls, and edibles under a legal, transparent framework established by the tolerance policy. In Netherlands, these smoking lounges operate as non-profit licensed coffeeshop entities, registered and audited under the gedoogbeleid. Key operational rules include an a number determined by the municipal license-member ceiling per club, a minimum membership age of 18, distribution limits of five grams per purchase per visit and no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid per month, and a mandatory set by municipality (typically 250m from schools) setback from schools and youth-oriented facilities. Fees of approximately no membership fee — walk-in access with valid ID cover the full seed-to-member pipeline, including quality assurance and regulatory paperwork. Smoking inside the coffeeshop is permitted — no alcohol served, only cannabis products and soft drinks — members pick up their weed, hash, pre-rolls, and edibles and smoke them at home in private.

The daily limit is five grams per purchase and the monthly cap is no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid — these are not guidelines but legally binding maximums enforced by every registered coffeeshop. For individuals under 18, access is entirely prohibited, and supplying minors carries heavy criminal penalties regardless of intent. Being responsible means knowing your products thoroughly — weed, hash, pre-rolls, and edibles differ in strength, onset time, and duration, and even experienced users can be caught off guard by unfamiliar strains. Never smoke cannabis before driving, cycling, or operating any machinery — impairment affects coordination and reaction time. In case of negative reactions, contact medical services promptly and disclose your smoking — medical professionals need accurate information to help you. The coffeeshops in Netherlands provide educational materials on safe use — take advantage of these resources even if your nearest club is outside Sleeuwijk. ## Legal Framework Under the **gedoogbeleid**, Netherlands has built a regulated cannabis system that carefully balances individual freedom with community safety. The core provisions are unambiguous: Each coffeeshop operates as a non-profit, accepting up to a number determined by the municipal license members who are at least 18 years old, with mandatory financial transparency. Members may obtain weed, hash, pre-rolls, and edibles within five grams per purchase daily and no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid monthly limits, and each transaction is logged for regulatory compliance. The set by municipality (typically 250m from schools) school buffer and the rule that smoking inside the coffeeshop is permitted — no alcohol served, only cannabis products and soft drinks are strictly enforced, with inspections conducted regularly. Private cultivation of five plants (tolerated, not legalised) and possession of available at licensed seed shops are permitted for personal use alongside club membership. The law explicitly bans all advertising, cross-border sales, and distribution to anyone under the age of 18. ### Regional Cannabis Policy — North Brabant Cannabis policy in **North Brabant** reflects the broader national framework while allowing for some regional variation in implementation and enforcement. Under the gedoogbeleid, North Brabant authorities play a key role in licensing and overseeing coffeeshops within their jurisdiction, including facility inspections and compliance monitoring.

Sleeuwijk, despite not yet hosting a coffeeshop, falls under the same regulatory umbrella and could license one in the future.

The multi-level governance model means that local context, community preferences, and infrastructure all matter in determining where coffeeshops operate.
