Law regarding same-sex sexual activity

Same-sex sexual activity is legal in Niger, but the age of consent is not equal for same-sex and opposite-sex sexual activity.[1] The age of consent is set at 13 years for heterosexuals and 21 years for homosexuals.

Recognition of same-sex relationships

Niger does not legally recognize same-sex unions.[1]

Discrimination protections

There is no legal protection against discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity.[2]

Living conditions

The U.S. Department of State's 2010 Human Rights Report found that "there were no known organizations of lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender persons and no reports of violence against individuals based on their sexual orientation or gender identity. However, gay persons experienced societal discrimination."[2]
