How late Amsterdam hospitality is allowed to stay open (by licence)

Amsterdam's standard regime allows opening until 01:00 on weekdays and 03:00 on Friday–Saturday: 94.5% of the 3,954 licences may go past 01:00 on weekends. Only 469 (11.9%) hold deep-night permission.

This is the closing time ALLOWED by the licence, not declared opening hours: a venue may close earlier than its licence allows. Where we know both, its page shows both, each with its source and date.

139 licences carry a non-clock rule ("one hour before the first activity") and stay out of the tables — the gap is the honest answer.
