Go-Go Bar in Lower Silesian Voivodeship, Poland

In Poland, selling and buying sex between adults are legal and unregulated, but almost every form of third-party involvement is a crime: inducing a person into prostitution or facilitating it for financial gain, or profiting from someone else's prostitution, carries three months to five years (Art. 204 Criminal Code), and bringing a person into prostitution by abusing dependence, force or deceit carries up to fifteen years (Art. 203). Brothels are therefore illegal. Importunate soliciting in public is a petty offence. No law addresses advertising sexual services specifically, but prosecutors have charged operators of paid ad sites with facilitating prostitution, with mixed results in court.
