General information on trafficking of human beings in germany

The most important legal provisions are provided in the Criminal Code (Strafgesetzbuch, StGB) and deal explicitly with trafficking in human beings. Previously, trafficking was covered in sections 180b and 181 of the StGB and focused exclusively on sexual exploitation. The criminal provisions on THB have since been expanded to cover all forms of exploitation through the 37th Criminal Law Reform Act, which came into force on 19 February 2005. The StGB was amended in line with the Framework Decision of the European Union on Trafficking in Human Beings, and the United Nations Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children.
