{{Same-sex unions}}

Same-sex marriage is legal (nationwide or in some parts) in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico,[1] the Netherlands,[2] New Zealand,[3] Norway, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom,[4] the United States,[5] and Uruguay. Court rulings allowing same-sex marriage in Taiwan and Costa Rica will take effect at latest on 24 May 2019 and on 26 May 2020, respectively.

Same-sex marriage is recognized, but not performed, in Armenia, Estonia and Israel. Furthermore, same-sex marriages performed in the Netherlands are recognized in Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten.

Whether same-sex couples should be allowed to marry has been and remains the topic of debate worldwide. Thirty-two countries and four jurisdictions worldwide have passed constitutional amendments that explicitly prohibit the legal recognition of same-sex marriage and sometimes other forms of legal unions as well.[6] Sixteen countries and thirty-two jurisdictions worldwide have authorized civil unions or unregistered cohabitation for same-sex couples as an alternative to marriage. The legal name of those unions as well as the number of rights that they provide can vary greatly.

Legislative efforts to recognise same-sex unions

National level

The first legislation of unregistered cohabitation was introduced in the Netherlands in June 1979.[7][8] However, the first substantial recognition of same-sex couples didn't occur before the introduction of a new legal form, that of registered partnerships, which was first enacted in Denmark in June 1989.[9] Many countries have followed with similar legislation since then. Legislation of these forms of legal unions still occur with a variety of different names, even after the introduction of same sex marriage, although sometimes they are overwritten by subsequent legislation of same-sex marriage.

There are currently sixteen countries that have an alternative form of legal recognition other than marriage on a national level. Those are Andorra, Chile, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Ecuador, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Liechtenstein, San Marino, Slovenia and Switzerland.

As of April 2019, legislation to allow an alternative form of legal recognition of same-sex couples other than marriage is pending, or has passed at least one legislative house on a national level in Lithuania, Monaco, Montenegro, Peru, the Philippines, Poland and Romania.

As of April 2019, same-sex marriage has been legal (nationwide or in some parts) in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico,[1] the Netherlands,[2] New Zealand,[3] Norway, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom,[4] the United States,[5] and Uruguay. Court rulings allowing same-sex marriage in Taiwan and Costa Rica will take effect at latest on 24 May 2019 and on 26 May 2020, respectively.

As of April 2019, legislation to allow same-sex marriage is pending, or has passed at least one legislative house on a national level in Chile, the Czech Republic, Mexico, Peru, Switzerland and Taiwan.

Sub-national level

For status in U.S. states, see Same-sex marriage legislation in the United States

In countries with a federal system of governance, states and territories often may grant recognition to same-sex couples in their own jurisdictions, although unitary states with a level of devolution, such as Spain or the United Kingdom, also offer such legalities to local authorities. The first jurisdiction to enact unregistered cohabitation was British Columbia in Canada in July 1992. The first jurisdiction to legalize registered partnership was Greenland as part of the Kingdom of Denmark in April 1996. Finally, the first sub-national jurisdiction to legalize same-sex marriage was the Canadian province of Ontario in June 2003.

As of April 2019, there are forty-one jurisdictions worldwide have legalized some kind of alternative form of legal union of same-sex couples other than marriage. Those are a constituent country of the United Kingdom (Northern Ireland), all the special municipalities of Taiwan (Kaoshiung, New Taipei, Taichung, Tainan, Taipei and Taoyuan), the three Taiwanese provincial cities of Chiayi, Hsinchu and Keelung, nine counties of Taiwan (Changhua, Chiayi, Hsinchu, Kinmen, Lienchiang, Miaoli, Nantou, Pingtung and Yilan), five special wards of Tokyo (Shibuya, Setagaya, Nakano, Edogawa and Toshima), six designated cities of Japan (Osaka, Fukuoka, Sapporo, Chiba, Kumamoto and Sakai), three core cities of Japan (Naha, Hirakata and Yokosuka), two special city of Japan (Takarazuka and Odawara), three cities of Japan (Iga, Fuchū (Tokyo) and Sōja), one town of Japan (Ōizumi), Aruba, a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and the Mexican state of Tlaxcala.

For the time being, seventy-four jurisdictions worldwide have legalized same-sex marriage. Those are:

  • Forty-two Native American tribes, namely the Ak-Chin Indian Community, the Blackfeet Nation, the Blue Lake Rancheria, the Central Council of the Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska, the Cherokee Nation, the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes, the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians, the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians, the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community of Oregon, the Coquille Indian Tribe, the Eastern Shoshone Tribe, the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, the Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribes, the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation, the Grand Portage Band of Chippewa, the Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin, the Iipay Nation of Santa Ysabel, the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community, the Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe, the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin, the Northern Arapaho Tribe, the Oglala Sioux Tribe, the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin, the Osage Nation, the Pascua Yaqui Tribe, the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians, the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska, the Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe, the Prairie Island Indian Community, the Puyallup Tribe of Indians, the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, the San Carlos Apache Tribe, the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians, the Stockbridge-Munsee Community, the Suquamish Tribe, the Tulalip, the White Mountain Apache Tribe and the Yavapai-Apache Nation.
  • Thirteen Mexican states, namely Baja California, Campeche, Chiapas, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Colima, Jalisco, Michoacán, Morelos, Nayarit, Nuevo León, Puebla and Quintana Roo, and the Mexican Federal District of Mexico City.
  • As well as England, Wales and Scotland, three constituent countries of the United Kingdom, the British Overseas Territories of Akrotiri and Dhekelia, Bermuda, the British Antarctic Territory, the British Indian Ocean Territory, the Cayman Islands, the Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, the Pitcairn Islands, Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, and the British Crown dependencies of Guernsey (excluding Sark), the Isle of Man and Jersey.

As of April 2019, legislation to allow same-sex marriage is pending, or has passed at least one legislative house in the Mexican states of Durango, Hidalgo, México, Oaxaca, Querétaro, San Luis Potosí, Sinaloa, Sonora, Tabasco, Tlaxcala, Veracruz, Yucatán and Zacatecas.

Constitutional efforts to prohibit same-sex unions

Thirty-two countries, one Mexican state and three British Overseas Territories have passed constitutional amendments banning a variety of same-sex unions. These amendments have taken several forms. Some are limited to banning only marriage. Others ban marriage and prohibit legislation providing "similar rights".

National level

Jamaica was the first country to prohibit same-sex marriage in July 1962. Paraguay, Honduras and Bolivia are the only cases that not only marriage is prohibited but also de facto unions. Vietnam and Cuba repealed their same-sex marriage bans in November 2013 and February 2019, respectively.

As of April 2019, thirty-two countries prohibit same-sex marriage on a national level. Those are Armenia, Belarus, Bolivia, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cambodia, the Central African Republic, Croatia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Georgia, Honduras, Hungary, Jamaica, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Montenegro, Palau, Paraguay, Rwanda, Serbia, Slovakia, South Sudan, Uganda, Ukraine, Venezuela and Zimbabwe.

Sub-national level

The first jurisdiction to explicitly ban same-sex marriage in its Constitution was the U.S. state of Alaska in November 1998, however, same-sex marriage was legalised in the state in October 2014. The first jurisdiction to enact such a ban and still has it enforced is the Cayman Islands, which is a British Overseas Territory, in June 2009.

As of April 2019, four jurisdictions worldwide have constitutional bans on same-sex marriage. Those are three British Overseas Territories, the Cayman Islands, Montserrat and the Turks and Caicos Islands, and the Mexican state of Yucatán.
