Straßensondernutzung - Fliegender Straßenhandel aus Verkaufsfahrzeugen beantragen
Machine translation of the German page, 2026-09-15. The German original is binding.
Public street land must by law be available for traffic use by everyone. If someone restricts this general use (Gemeingebrauch) through a different type of use, this is considered a special use (Sondernutzung). Selling from vehicles without a fixed location on public street land (so-called mobile vending / fliegender Handel), including across several districts, constitutes a special use. • The individual districts set their own catalogues of conditions and designate no-trading street areas that restrict trading. • Not all types of goods are considered suitable for mobile vending, and the same applies to not all types of sales vehicles.
