Customs Inspection at Kiliani: Focus on Show Business - Schweinfurter Zoll Scrutinizes Kiliani
The Main Customs Office Schweinfurt is conducting inspections at the Kiliani Volksfest in Würzburg on July 9, 2025. The showmen's trade, one of the sectors particularly affected by black work, is under scrutiny as over 70 personnel from the Financial Control Schwarzarbeit of the Main Customs Office Schweinfurt inspect various aspects of the trade, including fairground rides, shooting galleries, and sales stands.
The purpose of the inspections is to ensure compliance with social security obligations, payment of the statutory minimum wage, and to uncover illegal employment, possible sham self-employment, and improper receipt of social benefits. The inspections are part of the Main Customs Office Schweinfurt's efforts to combat illegal employment and sham self-employment.
Journalists interested in the inspections can contact the press office of the Main Customs Office Schweinfurt on site next to the police festival booth on the Kiliani festival grounds. Benedikt Danz, the press spokesman at the Main Customs Office Schweinfurt, is available for questions, O-Tones, and statements. The press release with the preliminary overall results of the operation will be issued tomorrow.
The Main Customs Office Schweinfurt's press office can be reached at the press office number: 09721/6464-1030, or via email at [email protected]. The press release will contain the preliminary overall results of today's operation and will be transmitted via news aktuell.
The inspections are being carried out in a risk-oriented manner, with the customs officers inspecting the various aspects of the showmen's trade to ensure compliance with laws and regulations. The Main Customs Office Schweinfurt's website is www.zoll.de for more information.
The labor inspection action at the Kiliani Volksfest in Würzburg on Wednesday, July 9, 2021, was conducted by the Main Customs Office Nuremberg (Hauptzollamt Nürnberg). The inspections will continue until late afternoon.
The showmen's trade is a significant part of many festivals and events across Germany, and it is important to ensure that the workers are treated fairly and that the laws and regulations are being followed. The Main Customs Office Schweinfurt is committed to this mission and will continue to conduct inspections to ensure compliance.
