Paris has one of Xcortly's largest European markets — over 1,700 active profiles — operating under a legal model that's the reverse of what most visitors assume.

France Criminalises the Client, Not the Provider

Since a law passed on 13 April 2016, France has run what's known as the "Nordic" or "Equality" model: selling sex and soliciting are not criminal offences, but purchasing sex is — punishable by a fine of up to €1,500, with repeat offenders required to attend an educational course on the conditions sex workers actually face. The law also kept France's existing anti-pimping statutes in place and created a national "exit programme" offering support to anyone who wants to leave the industry. The practical effect: the legal risk in a transaction in France sits overwhelmingly on the buyer's side, not the provider's — the opposite of how most other markets on this site are structured.
