Prostitution business permit (Erlaubnis für Prostitutionsgewerbe)
If you want to operate a prostitution business, you will need an official permit.
Prostitution businesses include brothels and similar establishments (e.g. sauna
or nudism clubs, brothel flats or “model flats”), prostitution vehicles (e.g.
“Love-Mobiles”), prostitution events (e.g. commercial sex parties), and
prostitution agencies (e.g. escort agencies).

When prostitutes share a flat with one or more co-workers (regularly or only
occasionally), then this is generally considered a prostitution business. In that
case, a permit has to be obtained and one person has to perform the duties of
a business operator.

Before issuing the permit, the authority will assess whether the person is
sufficiently reliable to run a prostitution business. These businesses must
comply with the legal regulations. For example, there must be adequate
sanitation facilities for prostitutes and clients. The rooms in which the sexual
services are provided must have a way to make emergency calls, and the
working rooms must not also serve as bedrooms or living rooms. The authority
may waive some requirements for prostitution businesses in flats.

If there are indications that people are being exploited, a permit may not be
issued or an existing permit may be withdrawn. A business concept must be
submitted for a permit to be issued. Prostitutes have the right to view this
concept. This allows them to find out whether the business has been approved
and whether the legal requirements are met.

Furthermore, the business operators must ensure the health and safety of
prostitutes, clients, and other people in the business. Prostitutes have a right
for their working rooms to be equipped with condoms, lubricants, etc.

The operators must ensure that only prostitutes with a valid registration
certificate work in the business. They also have to give prostitutes the
opportunity to use advising services – also during working hours. Prostitutes
have the right to insist that their employment contracts and other contracts
are set down in writing. The same applies to proof of payment, such as for
rent. Business operators may not charge prostitutes excessive rent
(extortionate rent) or any other unreasonably high prices.

Instruction prohibition (Weisungsverbot)
The law protects prostitutes and their right to sexual self-determination
through the so-called instruction prohibition (Weisungsverbot). According to
this law, operators may not stipulate how prostitutes perform sexual services
and to what extent. This is exclusively a matter between the prostitutes and
their clients. It follows that prices are also agreed between prostitutes and
their clients. The personal rights of prostitutes may not be restricted. For
example, they may not be forced to work naked, and their ID documents may
not be taken away from them.
