Basic information
Prostitution vehicles are vehicles that people use to offer sexual services. Every person who provides such a prostitution vehicle requires a permit. If the operator of the prostitution vehicle wishes to provide it more frequently in the same jurisdiction, he or she must also give 2 weeks' notice. This applies if the vehicle is to be used with the following frequency
- on more than 2 consecutive days
- several times a month
You may only set up a prostitution vehicle in such a way that you do not endanger anyone. Special protection must be provided for
- the persons working in the vehicle, for example
- by providing sufficient privacy
- from violence and exploitation
- customers and clients
- Residents, for example from noise pollution
- Residents and neighbors
- Children and young people, for example from contact with prostitution
This influences the time and place at which you are allowed to set up the prostitution vehicle.
If you are unable to guarantee protection, the competent authority may prohibit you from setting up the prostitution vehicle.
Please note that you may require further permits in addition to the permit for the prostitution business or are subject to registration.
This applies in particular to the following legal areas:
- Catering law
- trade law
- building law
- water law
- Immission control law
