All coffeeshops operate under the Netherlands' tolerance policy (gedoogbeleid). Tourists are welcome — no membership or residency required, just valid ID (18+) Understanding how smoking lounges work is essential, even if Waal does not yet have one. A coffeeshop functions as a licensed coffeeshop that cultivates weed, hash, pre-rolls, and edibles exclusively for its registered members, with no external sales permitted. Under Netherlands law, each cannabis café is non-profit, limited to a number determined by the municipal license members, and subject to periodic compliance inspections. Individuals must be at least 18 years old to join, and dual membership in multiple clubs is typically prohibited. Dispensing limits are set at five grams per purchase daily and no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid monthly per member. The set by municipality (typically 250m from schools) distance requirement from educational institutions ensures community safety and responsible placement of facilities. Smoking inside the coffeeshop is permitted — no alcohol served, only cannabis products and soft drinks, meaning members collect their supply and smoke it at home or in private spaces. Separately, individuals may personal cultivation five plants (tolerated, not legalised) at home, complementing club access with personal cultivation. ## Nearby coffeeshops Although Waal has no coffeeshops of its own, several nearby municipalities offer established options that are open to members from across South Holland.

Anyone below 18 is excluded from all participation, and distribution to minors is a serious criminal offence under the gedoogbeleid.

If you experience adverse effects, seek medical attention immediately and be honest with healthcare providers about what you have consumed.

Product types are limited to weed, hash, pre-rolls, and edibles, with daily distribution not exceeding five grams per purchase and monthly caps strictly enforced at no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid.
