LGBT rights in the Dominican Republic
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) persons in the Dominican Republic may face legal challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents. While the criminal code does not expressly prohibit homosexuality or cross-dressing, it also does not address discrimination or harassment on the account of sexual orientation or gender identity. Household headed by same-sex couples are also not eligible for any of the same rights given to traditional married couples.
== The Right to Privacy ==
Homosexuality between consenting adults in private has been legal in the Dominican Republic since 1822. The age of consent is equalized regardless of sexual orientation to 18. This does not apply to members of the police force or the military.
The National Police Law of 1954 does prohibit police officers from engaging in homosexuality, and a similar ban exists on members of the military. 〔() 〕
Article 330 of the criminal code does criminalize any act that is deemed to be in violation of "decorum and good behavior" in public with fines and up to 2 years imprisonment. This particular law has sometimes been used by police officers to harass, fine or jail gay couples who engaging in public displays of affection.
