Up to 5 plants per person is not prosecuted.
Purchase limit
Coffeeshops may sell at most 5 g per person per transaction.

Residents criterion
National rule since 1 January 2013, enforced locally; strict in Maastricht and mandatory in experiment municipalities on the Belgian or German border.
Public use
No national ban, but municipalities can prohibit it — e.g. Amsterdam's Wallen since 25 May 2023 (€100 fine after a warning).
Supply
Outside the trial, cultivation and supply to coffeeshops remain illegal; in 10 trial municipalities shops sell only regulated cannabis since 7 April 2025.
Advertising
Coffeeshops may not advertise drugs.

Where the five are

The Canna Club is on Nieuwstraat 4, with a candy-shop-style ground floor and an upstairs lounge. Doctor Green is on Herenstraat 7 by the Plein, with an enclosed first-floor smoking room. Greenhouse Secret Farmers is on Elandstraat 18 in the Zeeheldenkwartier, noted for hash. Dizzy Duck is on Trompstraat 210 and closes earlier, at 22:30. Magic has strict ID checks and does not allow smoking on site.

The Hague is not in the regulated-supply trial, so these shops still work on the tolerated grey supply chain. We wrote a separate guide on what visitors get wrong here. The South Holland hub has Rotterdam for comparison.
