LGBTQIA+
Criminalised or dangerous: high risk
- The law is used against LGBTQIA+ people, and crackdowns have increased in recent years.
- Avoid any public display of affection, and think twice before posting photos or personal details online.
- Be very careful with dating apps: police and criminals have used them to set traps.
- Trans and non-binary travellers: the gender marker on your passport is what counts at border checks; carry supporting documents if your appearance has changed.
- If you face discrimination, threats or arrest, contact your embassy right away.
These rules change and depend on your situation: always check with the official sources and your embassy before you leave. GoZzzy gives general information and cannot be held responsible.
