None of the mainstream Christian denominations allow polygamy, especially in countries where it is illegal. There are several offshoot cults and churches which allow polygamy, but these are usually individual small churches (<1000 people) that cannot be considered denominations. There are some individuals, religious and not religious, who practice polygamy individually as well.
