HIV travel and residence regulations of different countries

At least 104 countries around the world have special restrictions on entry and residence of people living with HIV and AIDS.

If you are travelling for either a holiday or work or you're thinking of moving to a county permanently, it is important to know if there are any legal restrictions because of being HIV+.
