Just like all other states, except for Nevada, prostitution is illegal in New York. In addition to facing harsh penalties such as jail time and fines, you may be required to register as a sex offender, which can damage your reputation and make it difficult to live a normal life.

Penalties for Prostitution

If you engage in, agree to engage in, or offer to engage in sexual acts with another person in exchange for money, you can be arrested and charged with prostitution in New York. Prostitution is a class B misdemeanor, which is punishable by a jail sentence of up to three months and maximum fine of $500. However, if prostitution happened in a school zone, it is considered a class A misdemeanor.

Patronizing a prostitute entails the act of paying or agreeing to pay another individual to engage in sexual conduct. If an offender is over 21 years of age and patronizes a person who is under 17 years of age, it is considered a class A misdemeanor.
