Abstract

Homosexuals in Vietnam face many prejudices, stigmas, and discrimination from family, society, friends, and from people in the same community as in some other countries in the world. Assessed objectively and comprehensively, the issue of homosexual rights appeared quite late in the Vietnamese legal system (only the right to determine gender has been recognized since 2005). Over the past five years, the legal system has been amended and supplemented with a number of positive and developed provisions on the rights of these subjects (marriage and family, civil, criminal justice, etc.). However, in general, the Vietnamese legal system on this issue still has some gaps, not covering all homosexual and transgender subjects (same-sex cohabitation relationships, property relationships, child rights, criminal judgment execution, etc.). Basically, the Vietnamese law on this subject's rights still lacks a lot of regulations compared to the common standards of the world.
