Yes, beginning August 19, 2013.

Since April 26, 2005, same-sex couples in New Zealand may enter into Civil Unions and receive "virtually" the same rights. This includes Immigration and social welfare rights. However, partners in a Civil Union may not adopt a child as a couple. One partner must adopt as a single person.

No. However, in August 2011, Chilean President Sebastian Pinera introduced a bill which would legalize a form of civil union in Chile. In response, the opposition introduced a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban same-sex marriage in that country.

No. There is no legal recognition of same-sex relationships in Guyana, the only country in South America where consensual sexual activity between adults of the same sex is illegal. Certain acts can theoretically result in life imprisonment.

Yes, beginning April 26, 2005. A New Zealand civil union is identical in every way to a legal marriage, except that partners in a civil union may not jointly adopt children.

No. Although same-sex marriage has been legalized in New Zealand, that law does not apply in this territory of New Zealand.
