All coffeeshops operate under the Netherlands' tolerance policy (gedoogbeleid). Annual fees are generally around no membership fee — walk-in access with valid ID.

Coffeeshops are legally structured as not-for-profit associations under the tolerance policy. They exist to provide adult members — minimum age 18 — with quality-tested weed, hash, pre-rolls, and edibles grown collectively within regulated facilities. Each club is limited to a number determined by the municipal license members, preventing commercial-scale operations and maintaining an intimate community atmosphere. Members may receive up to five grams per purchase per day and no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid per month, with all transactions recorded for regulatory compliance. Cultivation happens under strict rules: smoking inside the coffeeshop is permitted — no alcohol served, only cannabis products and soft drinks, and all facilities must maintain the set by municipality (typically 250m from schools) buffer zone from educational institutions. The model emphasises harm reduction, education, and community responsibility over profit — a key distinction from commercial cannabis retailers. Membership fees, roughly no membership fee — walk-in access with valid ID, sustain operations transparently with full financial accountability.
