Hi,
In May 17th 'till the 24th i'm going to be in amsterdam

(!!!) can't wait!
I have a question about legal issue:
I understood that a coffe shop is authorized to sell 5gr of pot\hash,
So if i'm buying from one coffe shop then exit the place and go to another one, can I buy another 5gr? if I can, what would happen if a cop comes and make a routine check?

The 2nd ques is:
Can u please name the places where can I smoke has\pot?
(Like street, Hotel-room, Bar, Park, etc...)?

Many thanks!

You can have up to an ounce on you.
A c.s can only sell you 5gm. at a time, but you can buy at as many shops as you like, just don't carry more than an oz. on you. ( why would you any way ? You should be smoking it .

)
Smoke in c.s., some parks, some hotels, some apartments,some bars.
Nes is a nice bar with a smoker friendly policy and a Volcano and VerDamper on the premises.
Lots of info here about where you can smoke.
Check around the forum .

You can purchase up to 5 grams at once from each shop. The limit for possession is 30 grams I believe. I have never seen the police search anyone to see how much weed they have. You can smoke in your hotel room if they allow smoking. Vondelpark is great for a smoke on a warm summer day. It's an easy 30 minute walk from Dam Square. Smoking on the streets is usually frowned upon, I never had a problem late at night. There are several smoker friendly pubs around town, here is thread https://www.coffeeshopdirect.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5605

Peace,

There always seems to be some confusion about that, I'm pretty sure it was proved somewhere you could have the 30 grams on you but you're right about a coffeeshop only allowed to carry 500 grams of stock.
