Djibouti
Although no law explicitly mentions same-sex relations, Djibouti's authorities prosecute them under laws against attacks on 'good morals', with penalties of up to 3 years' imprisonment according to the Human Dignity Trust. There is no legal recognition of same-sex unions. Several foreign affairs ministries maintain active travel advisories for Djibouti. We recommend consulting official sources before planning any travel.
