Prostitution laws in the UK
Despite prostitution being legal in the UK, the lawmakers made sure to put certain regulations that are meant to increase the safety of sex workers and others involved in the business. As a result, brothels, public soliciting, kerb-crawling, pimping, and pandering, are formally illegal. An act of prostitution should happen privately without the client crawling along the streets or prostitutes soliciting for clients.
Prostitution in itself is legal when it comes to the simple act of exchanging sexual activities for money.
Therefore, anyone above the age of 18 is allowed to both sell and pay for sex (except in Northern Ireland where the situation is slightly different).
It is rather important though to keep in mind the different things associated with punting or prostitution that remain illegal:
● Advertising on public places like phone booths and bus stations
● Approaching people in public to ask them for sex in exchange for compensation, an act known as Kerb crawling
● Renting or allowing a property to be used as a brothel
● Exploit and taking advantage of sex workers
● Direct or indirect involvement in human trafficking.
