Bangkok THB 08:10 GMT+07:00 Sehr sicher für LGBTQ+
✓ Gleichgeschlechtliche Beziehungen legal ✓ Gleichgeschlechtliche Ehe ✓ Pride-Events ⚖️ Thailand decriminalised same-sex relations in 1956 and in 2024 became the first country in Southeast Asia to legislate marriage equality: the Marriage Equality Act passed the Senate in June, received royal assent in September and took effect on 23 January 2025, with joint adoption for married couples and IVF for married lesbian couples following. The 2015 Gender Equality Act bans discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity, with exceptions for religion and education that activists want closed. Legal gender change is still not possible; a gender recognition bill ordered by the cabinet in 2024 has not passed, so trans Thais carry documents with their birth sex despite one of the world's largest trans populations. Men who have sex with men are still barred from donating blood. Public support for same-sex adoption was 82 percent in 2024. Bangkok's Silom Soi 4 and Soi 2, Pattaya's Boyztown and Jomtien, Phuket's Patong and Chiang Mai all have long-established scenes, and Bangkok Pride in June has become a major event. A 2019 UNDP survey found half of LGBTQ Thais had faced verbal harassment, a reminder that tolerance has limits outside the tourist zones.
