Health advice for people working in prostitution
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzPersons who wish to work as a prostitute must attend a health consultation before registering for the first time. After registering their activity, prostitutes aged 21 and over must attend the health consultation at least every twelve months. Prostitutes under the age of 21 must attend a health consultation at least every six months. The person receiving advice will be issued with a certificate confirming the health advice provided. This can be issued in anonymized form and the administrative services are subject to a fee.
Violations of the obligation to seek health advice may be punished by law if the person without a certificate does not comply with the request by the competent authority to seek health advice within a reasonable period of time and submit the corresponding certificate.
