| Legal situation prostitution : Prostitution
has never been illegal in the Netherlands. Since 1988, it has been
officially defined as a legal profession and prostitutes joined the
Service Sector Union. They have been required to pay income taxes since
1996. Prostitutes are not registered and are not required to get health
checks. Pimping and facilitating prostitution is illegal. This
technically applies also to maintaining a brothel ("the Brothel Act"),
but this law is not enforced and will probably be changed soon. Brothels
advertise openly. Cities can regulate prostitution as they see fit. In
practice, they often confine street prostitution to certain parts of
town and impose conditions on brothels. |
