LGBTQ+ Safety Notice — HIGH RISK

Legal but civil society space is closing — discretion essential

Local law: Decriminalised 1997; no anti-discrimination protections; NGO crackdown intensifying since 2020. Public LGBTQ+ organising restricted.

Safety guidance for visitors →

Do not disclose your orientation to hotel staff, drivers, or guides.
Avoid public displays of affection of any kind.
Do not use LGBTQ+ dating apps — police entrapment via apps is documented. If you must, install a VPN before arrival.
Avoid carrying LGBTQ+ identifiers (flags, books, screenshots) in luggage.
Phone searches at airports can include checks for LGBTQ+ content — delete sensitive chats/photos before crossing borders.
If travelling with a same-sex partner, present yourselves as "friends" or "colleagues"; book separate hotel rooms for safety.
Use Signal or Wire for sensitive messaging — not WhatsApp.
Keep emergency cash (USD/EUR) and two separate payment cards.
Stay at international-chain hotels (Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt) — they rarely interrogate guest arrangements.
Register with your embassy on arrival — consular help may be limited.
Share a daily check-in with someone trusted abroad.
Listings on this page are provided for harm reduction and informed travel decisions — not a recommendation to visit.

Amazing experience. I stayed at their one-person room for 5 nights and had nothing to complain. Both the room and the location were extremely convenient. Made my trip to Guangzhou very pleasant.

Walking distance to metro station, room and service still acceptable, budget hotel.
