Are German FKK Clubs Legal?
YES, Prostitution is legal in Germany. FKK Clubs and the women are taxed; women pay about 20 Euros per day in taxes, which the FKK Clubs include in their daily fee.
POLICE RAIDS
Over the past decade we’ve seen and witnessed Police raids. “Razzia” is the German word for “Police Raid”. These raids are rather common and happen on a regular basis. Police show up unannounced in an organized group, blocking arriving and departing customers and working staff. FKK Club Raids usually are not targeted at customers. They focus on the women and staff working at the FKK Club. Customers are usually separated from the women in a different part of the FKK Club. Women are asked to produce documentation for legal residency.
These events can last from 2 to 6 hours, depending on what’s found, how many women and how large the club is. Sometimes drug dogs are used to make a sweep of the locker rooms at the FKK Club. It’s common that a few girls will be removed from the FKK Club by police for assorted reasons.
POLICE CHECK POINTS
Once in a while, police will set up stops along the highway, usually around bends or where you don’t have time or room to avoid them. Most of the time, they’re checking for alcohol and drugs. They’ll give you a quick look and then wave you on your way. Some of these check points are specifically set up for people coming and going from the FKK Clubs. Police know people drink, and even one or two drinks can result in a drunk driving arrest.
RANDOM POLICE STOPS
Since the EU has removed physical border stops, border police have taken to the highways in areas where people commonly cross from one country to another. In places such as autobahns and back roads coming from the Netherlands into Germany, Police know people bring drugs so they randomly stop cars for inspection. They’re also interested in people coming into Germany from other countries, thus its best to always carry your passport with you as you’ll be asked for your passport during such a stop.
