Requirements
21+ years old
In Amsterdam you have to be at least 21 years old to work as a sexworker. If you are younger than 21 you are not allowed to work as a sexworker in Amsterdam.
ID card
You need to have a valid ID card of a country within the European Union. You must always have your ID card with you. If you are from outside the European Union you need to have a valid working permit.
Registration at the Chamber of Commerce (“KVK”)
You have to be registered at the Chamber of Commerce in The Netherlands. This is also known as ‘KVK inschrijving’. During the intake interview, we ask you to show proof of this registration.
Health insurance
You need to have a health insurance.
If you don’t have a health insurance in the Netherlands, make sure you have the ‘European Health Insurance Card’ from your own insurance company:
You can show this card also digital if you have the app of your health insurance company on your phone. If you don’t have this card, but you do have any other proof, please contact us.
If you don’t have a Duch health insurance yet, because you just started in the Netherlands that is no problem.
Intake interview
It is mandatory by law to have an intake interview before you start renting. This interview will take 30 to 60 minutes. You have to do this every six months.
Interviews are by appointment only. If you are considering renting a room, make an appointment for the intake. We can also schedule the intake prior to your first reservation, but we recommend doing it at a seperate moment.
Please take with you to the interview:
– valid ID
– proof of registration at KVK (Chamber of Commerce)
– proof of health insurance (if you don’t have it yet that’s ok)
Support for sexworkers
In the Netherlands sexwork is a legal profession. That means you can work relatively safe and you can trust the police and healthcare professionals. In Amsterdam there is one organisation specialised in helping sexworkers: P&G292. They can help you with a variety of matters like (mental) health, free STD tests, information about how to start and stop with sexwork, assistance with registrations, confidentional counselors etc.
