Blood donations by MSMs: Banned (1-year deferral) from Dec 2019 to Sep 2022.
In December 2019, a deferral period of one year was put in place.
On May 20, 2022, Austria voted to lift the ban entirely and instead vet donors according to the risk of their sexual behavior. The new law is expected to take effect in the Fall.
Same-sex adoption: Illegal from Jan 1, 2005 to 2015.
The couple applying for adoption must be a married, different sex couple. Custody has been granted to a same-sex parent on the basis of the "child's best interest," but this is very rare.
