If applicable, statutes of the district or the district-free or large city belonging to the district

Roads are reserved for road traffic. Therefore, a person who wants to offer goods and services on roads needs an exemption.

Roads are usually reserved for road traffic.

According to Section 33 (1) of the Road Traffic Regulations (StVO), there is a ban on offering goods and services of all kinds on the road if this could distract or harass road users in a manner that endangers or aggravates traffic. In such cases, an exemption is required, which, however, can only be granted if absolutely necessary after careful consideration of all legal interests. The exemption can be applied for

• for certain individual cases, or
• generally for certain applicants.

The term "road" here refers to areas directly dedicated to road traffic.

The "offering of services and goods" also includes advertising for them. If certain sizes of the advertising media are exceeded, building law issues must also be examined. There are special commercial regulations for trades that are carried out only or mainly on the street (such as taxi rides, peddling on the street).

Please check with your local road traffic authority about the required documents, as these may vary from one authorities to another. As a rule, at least proof of the requirement for an exemption is required.

Exemptions will only be granted if there is an urgent need, with due regard in particular to the safety and order of traffic (discretionary decision).

In addition, requirements may be laid down in the statutes of the districts or the independent or large cities belonging to the district.

The application for the exemption must be submitted to the local road traffic authority.

Please inquire with your local road traffic authority about the processing time, as this varies from one authorities to another and may differ from the type of application (in person or online).
