Гей-гид: Гонконг

No — same-sex marriage is not currently recognised in Гонконг. Hong Kong decriminalised sex between men in 1991 and equalised the age of consent in 2006, and the courts have carried most of the progress since: spousal visas for same-sex partners (2018), joint tax assessment (2019), public housing for married same-sex couples (2020), step-child adoption (2021), and in February 2023 the Court of Final Appeal struck down the requirement for full surgery to change the gender on an ID card. In September 2023 the same court ordered the government to create a legal framework for same-sex partnerships within two years, while finding no right to marry. The government's answer, a narrow Registration of Same-sex Partnerships Bill limited to medical decisions, was voted down 71 to 14 by the Legislative Council in September 2025, so there is still no recognition and the court order is unmet. There is no law against discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation or gender identity. Younger Hong Kongers are strongly supportive, with three-quarters of under-40s backing same-sex marriage in a 2022 poll. Pride marches have not been permitted since the 2020 national security law, but the scene in Sheung Wan, Central and Causeway Bay is intact and visitors face no restrictions.
