| Issue | Same-sex marriage |
| Status | Unrecognized |
| Start Date | (unknown) |
| End Date | (none) |
| Description | The personal status code does not explicitly define marriage to be between a man and a woman, but it's implied according to its different article. Only that type of marriage is regulated. There is no law that regulates same-sex marriages or a civil unions. In 2020, Tunisian authorities approved the family reunification of a same-sex couple married abroad, a move initially reported as indirect recognition of the marriage,[27][28] but the government repeated that it does not recognize same-sex marriages and the approval may have been an administrative oversight. |
