The responsible authority has the right to monitor and control your prostitution business. If you operate a prostitution business without a license, you are committing an administrative offense and may be subject to a fine.

In addition to a license for the prostitution business, other permits or notifications may also be required, for example, under the regulations for restaurants, businesses, construction, water, or environmental protection. You may also need a separate permit if you want to use public rights-of-way.

The permit may be limited in time and subject to additional conditions (conditions).

If you wish to operate your prostitution business through a representative, you will also need a representative permit. Employees with management or supervisory functions must also be listed in the application. A background check is also required for these individuals.
