Despite its historic achievement, the Taiwanese same-sex marriage law passed in 2019 did not provide full legal equality. One glaring omission is the right of all transnational same-sex couples to lawfully marry.
We are the Taiwan Alliance to Promote Civil Partnership Rights (TAPCPR) and, as the leading legal aid organization for LGBTI rights in Taiwan, started raising awareness and campaigning for the rights of transnational same-sex couples back in 2017. We also represented several clients to initiate relevant litigation in 2019.
Same-sex couples in which one partner is Taiwanese and the other is a foreign national of a country that does not yet recognize same-sex marriage are not permitted to marry, as per Article 46 of Taiwan’s “Act Governing the Choice of Law in Civil Matters Involving Foreign Elements” which is currently interpreted as prohibiting such marriages in Taiwan. We believe that this interpretation is illegal and unjust, and transnational same-sex couples have finally won two court cases this year! Nevertheless, the government still refuses to promptly modify its interpretation or to amend relevant laws and regulations. The Judicial Yuan has prepared a draft amendment of Article 46 of Taiwan’s “Act Governing the Choice of Law in Civil Matters Involving Foreign Elements” and sent it to the cabinet (Executive Yuan) back in January 2021, but the cabinet has not yet sent the bill to the Legislative Yuan (our parliament).
The threat of COVID-19 has made the situation of transnational same-sex partners even more precarious than usual. We need more people to stand with us in this fight for true marriage equality!
The Taiwan Alliance to Promote Civil Partnership Rights ("TAPCPR") was founded in 2009, and registered with the Ministry of the Interior in August 2012. We drafted three bills for “diverse family formation” in 2012, which laid the foundation for future legislation. In 2017, we represented Chi Chia-Wei and won the same-sex marriage case (“Judicial Yuan Interpretation No. 748”), making Taiwan the first country in Asia to legalize same-sex marriage in May 2019.

Thanks TaiwanPlus report the news about transnational same sex marriage is illegal till now in Taiwan. (Start at 9:30)
We know this situation is ridiculous, as lawyer Hsu said, how can the people accept you can get marriage with American, but Japanese, I think no any heterosexual people can accept that, but it’s running in Taiwan same sex marriage.
I always remember when 17th May 2019, the raining day in Taipei, we all transnational gay couples stay outside the Taiwanese Legislature. The sky is shining real rainbow, everyone are acclaiming, but we are crying with holding the notice board which writing the slogan telling people we can’t get marry, please help us.
Tears without voice, we are fighting our human right till now, we get married, but I can't accept we are the only case, it is not fair to everyone, to every transnational same sex couples.
If my friends know the foreign media, please pass this new to them, let the world know how ridiculous in Taiwan’s same sex marriage situation, how the Ministry of the Interior force people be broken up because the nations.

<台灣硬>
2020東京奧運終於落幕了,
台灣在這屆奧運會取得了驚人的好成績,
尤其是麟洋配獲得我國史上第一面羽球奧運金牌,
這也使得許多業者搶著將「Tawian in」的圖騰申請商標以賺取奧運財,
但是商標的申請必須以具備識別性為前提,
新聞報導中以「申請的圖騰名稱中有Taiwan地名在內」及「in圖騰已廣為流行,民眾看到此圖會聯想到麟洋配」這兩個理由認為不具識別性,
劉哥今天來為大家說明一下。
如果你有任何法律問題,歡迎與劉哥聯繫!!

The state of #cannabis in Taiwan with the country’s only lawyer who only takes on cannabis-related cases.
In 2020, she ran for a seat in the parliament on the platform of legalizing medical marijuana. She’s currently deputy secretary general of the Green Party in Taiwan. In March 2021, Ms. LEE won “Best Show Host” at the inaugural KKBOX Podcasts Awards for her podcast on cannabis, “In The Weeds with Lawyer Zoe Lee #大麻煩不煩,” produced by Ghost Island Media
Marijuana remains a taboo in Taiwan. It’s a Class-2 narcotics. That’s the same class as meth. Possession over 20 grams can get you 5 years to life time in jail.
There is a movement for #CannabisLegalization here in Taiwan, and Ms. Zoe is a key person leading it. The global legal marijuana market, by one estimate, is predicted to be at 65 Billion USD by 2027. Cannabis is a global trend, and this is The Taiwan Take.
Today’s episode is hosted by Emily Y. Wu, co-founder of Ghost Island Media and producer of The Taiwan Take.

lawyer in taiwan 在 吳鳳Rifat Youtube 的最佳貼文
常常有人跟我說:謝謝我愛台灣。其實真的不只是我,有好多外國人因為不同的夢想也愛上台灣。所以我一直想要做一個系列的影片,就是挖掘出各種長居在台灣的外國人。把他們的故事介紹給更多人知道,讓台灣在國際舞台上更有信心。
這次我訪問的是一位來自香港的律師,因為台灣的自由跟民主,他放棄六百萬年薪移民到台灣。他在台灣開咖啡廳,實現自己的夢想,也順利拿到台灣的身分證。
我訪問他的時候感受到他很快樂的心情,對他來說賺很多錢不是人生最大的目的。他珍惜每天起床時候台灣給他的一切。我很欣賞他的生活方式跟對人生的期待。相信你們看完影片後,一定會更了解他的想法,跟他一樣更愛台灣❤️

On Taiwan Hashtag hosted by Ross Feingold, we are joined by Hseih
Pei-fen 謝佩芬, Legislative Yuan candidate for the Democratic Progressive
Party 民進黨 of President Tsai Ing-wen in the Da An District 大安區
constituency located in downtown Taipei. Hseih, a lawyer by training,
holds degrees from Harvard and National Taiwan University, and
previously worked for Taiwan’s National Security Council and the Tuvalu
United Nations mission in New York City. She has also held positions at
the Taiwan Network Information Center and the TechGirls organization
that promotes female leadership in the technology industry. The
incumbent Da An legislator is retiring, but the constituency
historically votes for the Kuomintang and we discuss with Hsieh Pei-fen
the challenges of introducing herself to voters, and why she believes Da
An voters are ready to elect a DPP candidate. We also discuss her
experience working at the United Nations and on technology policy
issues, and why both are relevant to voters in Da An, a center for
culture and commerce in Taiwan.
