In 2003 the Taiwanese government led by the Presidential office proposed legislation granting marriages to same-sex couples under the Human Rights Basic Law; however it faced opposition among cabinet members and has been stalled since, and thus not voted on. Currently Taiwan does not have any form of same-sex unions.

A massive poll of more than 6,400 Taiwanese adults released in April, 2006 by the National Union of Taiwan Women's Association/Constitutional Reform Alliance concluded that exactly 75% believe homosexual relations are acceptable, while 25% thought it was unacceptable.[1]
