Lack of data regarding knowledge and intention to use pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among sex workers exists in Spain. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis based on data from SexCohort study, which included male (MSW) and trans women sex workers (TWSW), aged ≥18 and recruited in two community-based centres in Barcelona, Spain. Of 116 TWSW and 79 MSW, 49.1% and 58.2% had factual knowledge of PrEP, and 40.3% and 70.1% had the intention to use PrEP, respectively. In the multivariable analyses, we found that education and condomless anal sex with stable partners were associated with PrEP knowledge. Regarding intention to use PrEP, TWSW were less likely than MSW to report an intention to use it (aOR = 0.35, 95% CI: 0.16-0.74). Furthermore, intention to use PrEP was associated with being foreign-born, practicing chemsex, and visiting a medical service in the last 12 months. The results of this study inform future trans-specific guidance for PrEP to be effectively implemented in Spain
