<p>Embora a República Dominicana possa não ser o epicentro da cultura LGBTQ nas Caraíbas, tem uma cena gay florescente, especialmente em áreas urbanas como Santo Domingo. O Malecón em Santo Domingo possui locais como o Club Arena, que o manterão dançando por horas. O Conde, na Zona Colonial de Santo Domingo, é um lugar onde você pode encontrar pessoas abertamente queer, embora a cultura tradicional do machismo permaneça forte. Não perca os eventos Draguéalo, que celebram o drag, a moda, a autoexpressão e a diversidade em todo o país. Uma parada do orgulho é realizada anualmente em Santo Domingo, em julho.</p>
<h2>Resorts adequados para LGBTQ</h2>
<p class="gt-block gt-block"><br>A República Dominicana oferece uma variedade de peculiaridades para LGBTQ. Em Punta Cana, você encontrará uma variedade de resorts, alguns dos quais são especificamente gay-friendly. Esses resorts com tudo incluído atendem aos turistas norte-americanos que buscam férias tranquilas com comodidades inclusivas. Muitos desses resorts também oferecem festas à beira da piscina e eventos especiais para tornar sua estadia inesquecível.</p>

Cena LGBTQ

<p>Para os viajantes LGBTQ, dois pontos principais se destacam na República Dominicana:</p>
<h2>Santo Domingo</h2>
<p>Santo Domingo, a capital, é uma das cidades mais antigas do Caribe. Explore uma Zona Colonial histórica com edifícios que datam de 1500, incluindo a primeira catedral construída no "Novo Mundo". Visite o Alcázar de Colón e o museu, que foi residência de um membro da família de Cristóvão Colombo. Santo Domingo também oferece uma vida noturna vibrante na vida noturna do Conde.</p>
<h2>Punta Cana</h2>
<p>Punta Cana é um paraíso turístico com vários hotéis e resorts específicos para turistas. Pratique esportes aquáticos, mergulho com snorkel, natação e mergulho, ou simplesmente relaxe em um hotel resort com festas à beira da piscina e eventos especiais.</p>
<h2>Vida noturna e entretenimento</h2>
<p>Santo Domingo possui uma vida noturna vibrante, especialmente ao longo da vida noturna do Conde, na Zona Colonial. Em Punta Cana, embora possa não haver uma vida noturna gay movimentada, muitos hotéis resort organizam festas e eventos especiais. O bar e clube de festas Coco Bongo Caribbean, famoso por sua vida noturna em Cancún e Playa del Carmen, fica perto de Punta Cana, oferecendo noites noturnas.</p>

Visita obrigatória

<p>Embora a República Dominicana seja um destino turístico popular, é essencial manter a cautela, especialmente fora das principais áreas turísticas. Embora a maioria dos hotéis seja favorável à comunidade LGBTQ, tenha cuidado e use áreas bem iluminadas ao viajar com um parceiro. O país tem uma “polícia turística” dedicada à protecção dos estrangeiros, oferecendo um serviço mais ágil do que a polícia nacional.</p>
<p>A República Dominicana é um destino vibrante que acolhe viajantes LGBTQ. Experimente a diversidade, a cultura e a beleza natural deste país encantador enquanto desfruta de pontos de interesse LGBTQ e de uma atmosfera calorosa e acolhedora.</p>

Article 30 and 31 allow for same-sex adoption and explicitly grant the right to couples using forms of assisted reproductive technology.  On 26 September, the President of the Cuban National Electoral Council confirmed that the referendum had passed with 66.87% of the vote. They also confirmed the result is valid and binding. The law will come into effect upon formal confirmation, expected 30 September.

According to ILGA official data as of October 2023, the gender marker on identity documents can only be changed if the applicant has undergone gender affirmation surgery. The petitioner must submit their request for a change of gender marker before the Civil Section of the Local Court. Next, the request is submitted to the National Commission for Comprehensive Attention to Trans People, together with the medical certification that the petitioner has undergone surgery. The following evidence must be accredited before the court: (1) the summary of the clinical records, (2) the descriptive medical criteria of the surgery with emphasis on its irreversibility, (3) a document confirming the intervention signed by the CENESEX, and (4) photographic records from before and after the intervention. <br />
<br />

<br />

Private, non-commercial sexual relations between same-sex consenting adults 16 and over have been legal in Cuba since 1979. Prior to 1979, a provision in the Social Defense code  labeled "homosexual practices" as a "social threat". This prior code did not technically criminalize homosexuality but left LGBT folks in a state of limbo as they were de-facto prosecuted and some even sent to labor camps in post-revolutionary Cuba.

Consensual sexual activity between individuals of the same sex.

The shaping of Cuban law is one of U.S and Spanish influence. Products of it's time as a colony and subsequent military intervention, the Civil Defense Code in 1936 ommitted previous provisions that criminalized homosexuality remanants from Cuba's colonized ruins. This did not mean LGBT Cubans did not face persecution though. Despite no laws that expressely criminalized private same-sex sexual relations, LGBT Cubans were still targeted, leaving the status of same-sex relations in a state of limbo until it's re-clarification in 1979.

Prior to the Spanish colonization of Cuba, no laws governed Cuban soil. History of indigenous Tainos may have shown some limited tolerance of "two-spirt" or gender diverse individuals akin to LGBT folks in modern day society, but these links are too thin to draw. The near non-existent archival of Taino culture does not help. In 1521, Cuba was incorporated into New Spain and with it governed from the Viceroyalty based in Mexico City. Cuba was recognized as a province of the Spanish empire, which granted it the same rights as any other province in Peninsular Spain, bearing the brunt of colonial anti-sodomy laws in place at the time.

Prohibition of discrimination based on sexual orientation and/or gender identity when applying for housing or discrimination by landlords / property owners.

Medical interventions performed on intersex infants to alter their genital appearance to conform to typical male or female standards, often without the informed consent of the child who is too young to participate in the decision-making process.

On 25 September, Cuba held a referendum on the development of a new family code that includes provisions that would legalise same-sex marriage and same-sex adoption.  On 26 September, the President of the Cuban National Electoral Council confirmed that the referendum had passed with 66.87% of the vote.  They also confirmed the result is valid and binding.  The law will come into effect upon formal confirmation, expected 30 September. 

Marriage and marriage recognition between two people of the same biological sex and/or gender identity.

The Cuban Constitution does not ban same sex marriage, but other statutory laws do prohibit it. Article 2 of the Family Code defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman - an amendment drafted in 2018 would have changed this but was rejected. Further consultation on changes to the Family Code are ongoing in 2022.

Since 2016, serving openly in the military has been legalized. 

The ability for homosexuals to serve in the military and be open about their sexuality.

Legal recognition of non-binary, genderqueer, or third gender identities.
