Is prostitution legal?
Yes and no. It is tolerated but it is not legal. Having any kind of sexual relationship with minors (under 18 years) is illegal and those caught face long terms in jail.




This is on travel faqs on Dr1 travel information page. Prostitution is legal not just tolerated, but yes with minors it is illegal.

We will leave the statement as is because what has been said is that it is not illegal. Does that make it legal? Semantics.

Not to terribly important in any case. Either way it turns out the same way.
No, it doesn't. If you want to say that pedophelia is illegal, and prostitution is not, then it should say that (under the subject of prostituion with a link to the subject of pedophelia for those who don't "get it"). Pedophelia and prostitution are disctinctly different things.

The question wasn't about Pedophelia. It was about Prostitution. What the heck are you talking about. Under 18 ah never mind. The whole subject is stupid.
