href=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/es\/amsterdams-red-light-district\/\">Barrio Rojo de \u00c1msterdam<\/a> will need to have a permit from the City of Amsterdam. This has been decided by the local government. We have been informed about this via several meetings and e-mails from the City of Amsterdam. Tour guides have been able to apply for the new permit for guides in Amsterdam since yesterday (12th of March 2018) 5 pm. After applying for the new permit it will take about a week before the permit is sent to the tour guides via the postal services. All guides will need to have the permit before the 1 April 2018.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0City of Amsterdam, together with other stakeholders, hosted an &#8220;Amsterdam Tour Guide Afternoon&#8221; in <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/De_Bazel\" rel=\"noopener\">de Bazel<\/a>\u00a0on the 13th of March. The goal of the gathering is to give a clear picture of the new permit for guides in Amsterdam. During the afternoon, the City of Amsterdam, tour operators (including us), tour guides and organizers talk to each-other about current developments and changes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13995 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-3.jpg\" alt=\"Permit for guides in Amsterdam\" width=\"800\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-3-300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-3-768x553.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mandatory_Permit_For_Guides_In_Amsterdam_The_Costs\"><\/span><strong>Mandatory Permit For Guides In Amsterdam: The Costs<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The cost for a single guide permit is 111,40 euros.

In 2007 Amsterdam started with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/es\/information\/amsterdams-red-light-district\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Project 1012<\/a> with the aim of &#8220;cleaning up&#8221; the Red Light District. This lead to the closure of many window brothels thus reducing the size of the Red Light District. At the same time the City of Amsterdam invested heavily into international tourism in a response to the financial crisis and Amsterdam became a popular destination. Fast forward to 2018 and there are far more tourists in Amsterdam than before. Those tourists want to see the now much smaller Red Light District.<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13968 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam.jpg\" alt=\"Permit for guides in Amsterdam\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Some_Tour_Operators_in_Amsterdam_Didnt_Agree_To_A_Voluntarily_Solution\"><\/span>Some Tour Operators in Amsterdam Didn&#8217;t Agree To A Voluntarily Solution<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To get a grip on the issue the City of Amsterdam first tried to get all the tour operators to voluntarily agree to new rules for guided tours in the Red Light District.

Some tour operators in Amsterdam bluntly stated that would wait for the law to be changed or else they wouldn&#8217;t change their daily operation. They didn&#8217;t want to decrease the size of their groups voluntarily, even while residents and prostitutes have been complaining. For this reason the City of Amsterdam has now introduced the new permit system to get a grip on all guided tours in the Red Light District area, including those who didn&#8217;t want to sign the convenant.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_Permit_For_Tour_Guides_In_Amsterdam_With_Stricter_Rules\"><\/span><strong>New Permit For Tour Guides In Amsterdam With Stricter Rules<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>All guides in the Red Light District will have to get a permit from the City of Amsterdam starting April 1st, 2018. Tour companies and guides will have to adhere to stricter rules set forth by the City of Amsterdam. The new permit for guides in Amsterdam is introduced to alleviate the city bustle within the Red Light District. Guides guiding groups of more than five people will need the permit. This includes new rules: do not dwell at busy places, respect the residents, stand with your back to prostitutes and do not take pictures them, no alcohol, no shouting and no more than twenty people per tour group. The new permit applies to all tours, so also for the pub-crawls, the tours via Segway and tandem bicycle.<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13969 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-1.jpg\" alt=\"Permit for guides in Amsterdam\" width=\"800\" height=\"441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-1-300x165.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamredlightdistricttour.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Permit-for-guides-in-Amsterdam-1-768x423.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Three_Strikes_Youre_Out_Policy_Implemented\"><\/span><strong>Three Strikes You\u2019re Out\u00a0Policy Implemented<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The municipality will deploy extra enforcers to check whether the guides are complying with the new rules.
