  • Service description

    Both indoor prostitution and street prostitution are no longer considered immoral in Germany.

    Prostitution is illegal if a legal ordinance (so-called restricted area ordinance) specifies certain places or times in which the practice of prostitution is prohibited.

    Within these areas, for example, it may be prohibited to engage in prostitution on streets, paths, squares and bridges, in railway stations and in all places that are public or can be seen by the public in order to protect young people and public decency.

    Violations of these regulations constitute administrative offences that can be punished with a fine or, if repeated, as a criminal offence.

    In Hesse, as in other federal states, corresponding restricted areas have been established in many cities.
