Service description

Prostitution event – notification of organisation or holding

Prostitution events are events organized for an open circle of participants at which sexual services are offered by at least one of the persons directly present.

Anyone wishing to organize or hold a prostitution event must notify the local public order office responsible for the venue four weeks before the start of the event online or using the application form.

Prostitution events may only be held in suitable buildings, rooms, other fixed facilities and other mobile facilities (e.g. vehicles, ships, etc.). The operating location and operating hours must not conflict with the requirements for the protection of the prostitutes working at the prostitution event, customers, young people, residents, neighbors or the general public. Otherwise, the prostitution event may be prohibited.

A report that is not made, not made on time, not made truthfully or not made completely is an administrative offense and can be punished with a fine of up to EUR 1,000.00.

Procedure

  • If you wish to hold a prostitution event, you must report it before the event begins. The notification can be submitted online. Please complete the notification in full, upload the required documents and submit it.
  • The responsible office will check your details and documents and request any missing evidence. You will receive instructions on the further procedure and will be informed of the processing status by e-mail.
  • If all requirements are met and the necessary documents have been submitted, you will receive a fee notice and confirmation by post. If not all requirements or necessary documents have been met, your application will be rejected and a fee will be charged. In this case, you can read the reason for the rejection in the notification from the responsible office.
