The old maxim that rising GDP translates into prosperity for all is being exposed.

January 1st 2018. Prostitution Act.
[QUOTE=Turgid;2112342]Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the enforcement of the "Prostitutes Protection Act" begins on 1 January, 2018. Providers will then be required to have on their person ID cards proving that they have registered as sex workers with a local authority. Am I correct? Can anyone inform me of which WG other than the hard core providers will do this? From my verbal interaction with sex workers they pride themselves on anonymity. They will now be required to have written proof of involvement in their trade at some office. Does anyone foresee like me a decline in the number of our friends at FKKs?[/QUOTE]I spoke to a (German) girl in GT a couple of days ago, and she told me that it takes a couple of weeks to get everything organised.
What they apparently need is some sort of a real ID card (complete with their picture and fingerprint on it!) that identifies them as prostitutes, similar to a drivers license or a taxi driver permit. In order to get this ID card, the girls have to jump through a couple of bureaucratic hoops; do a medical examination and have a registered address in Germany are the main ones.
As anyone who has ever lived and worked in Germany knows that the German bureaucracy is pretty slow and outdated. Any Romanian girl who thinks that she can just show up on January 2nd at some government office and walk out with a 'prostitution license' a few hours later is probably totally mistaken. For example getting a new or replacement drivers license in Germany can easily take 2-3 weeks because the local office does not create the new drivers license, but instead everything gets shipped to a central government printing office, and this German girl I talked to was saying that she is already setting up appointments in her home town, but the approaching holidays will not make things easier. Effectively speaking most government offices only work at 50% capacity during the last two weeks of the year.
Apparently most clubs are doing almost nothing to help the girls, many of whom don't speak much German, and the German girl I talked to was speculating that it will be very very quiet in many German FKK clubs starting from January 1st, 2018.
[I]Guesstimating[/I] from my own, and I freely admit, [U]totally unscientific[/U] poll in Sharks and GT, many Romanian girls will either; a) not be ready to work after the 1st of January 2018, b) are taking a long vacation in order to reconsider working as a prostitute because they are fearful of the lack of anonymity * and the bureaucratic paper trail, or c) are seriously contemplating to relocate their services to Switzerland or Austria.
The most hilarious thing however was when I asked the girls who decided that they will stay after Jan 1st, how much tax and social premiums (state pension, health care) they [I]think[/I] they will have to pay. Most girls think they'll need to pay 5-10%.
* for example, a girl told me that on tax returns it will show that she works as a prostitute, and should she ever want to get married (thus requiring you to file a joint tax return) her future husband will be able to see what she did for a living. Furthermore, also having a house, apartment or even a bank account in Romania might complicate the tax returns, requiring girls to file under the dual taxation regulation requirement. Generally speaking these dual tax treaties within the EU prevent you from having to pay tax in two countries, but you still have to declare it by filing a (pro forma) tax return, and all banks in the EU now require you to provide them with a TIN (Tax Identification Number) of the country of residence. The net is closing, very quickly.
Just put them on the train!
