DescriptionSince 2009, LGBTIQ+ people are protected in the military code of Argentina.

In 2009, sexual orientation became a protected characteristic from discrimination in healthcare in Chubut under federal Argentine law. However, gender identity remains unprotected.

In 2019, Chubut would pass Law XV-No. 27, which prohibits incitement of hatred on the basis of sexual orientation. However, gender identity remains unprotected.

Conversely, in 2021, gender identity became a protected characteristic from discrimination in employment in Chubut, also under federal Argentine law, but sexual orientation remains unprotected.

Outside of those contexts, there are no discrimination protections provided to LGBTIQ+ people in Chubut.
