LGBTQ+ Cases

Homosexuality in the UAE

Homosexuality is not just a taboo subject in Dubai – its strictly forbidden and punishable by law.

Many LGBT individuals may chose to visit Dubai or the UAE but it is extremely important to be informed of the consequences of being openly gay in this region.

Although one should never have to hide who they are, it’s the only way to travel safely in the UAE if you are gay. With harsh and discriminatory laws condemning homosexuality and promoting homophobia in the name of religion, one must consider the risks quite carefully.
