Amsterdam is not close to any border. On the other hand, the Netherlands is very small, so in that sense you’re always close to a border :)

In Europe there is a credit card sized identity card which is valid in the EU and EFTA.
You said Amsterdam, though. I know Arnhem, so I don’t have to look it up. Arnhem is less than 30 minutes from the border. Amsterdam is about 1.5 hours from the border, but doesn’t give any information about which part of the border, since it’s about as far to the west as you can be.
That being said, I meant it lightly, it wasn’t important for what you were saying.
