German prostitutes must carry a ticket purchased from a new parking meter-like machine while working the streets or face hefty fines from tax authorities in a new scheme launched in the city of Bonn.
Germany hookers pay income tax, but compliance is difficult to enforce with women seeking business on the street. Bonn's "sex tax meters," from which prostitutes can purchase a ticket for $8 per night, will ensure the tax system is fairly implemented, a city spokeswoman said.
"Inspectors will monitor compliance - not every evening but frequently," the spokeswoman told reporters.
