What does the Bolivia report establish about planning to leave?
For planning to leave in Bolivia, Rage 2 Rebuild selects “Registration and tax requirements” from Humanists International’s chapter dated 31 October 2024. It describes national institutions or published conditions, not family reactions, emotions or access to an individual service. Check current facts before acting.
Country chapter updated 31 October 2024 · retrieved September 5, 2026. Its assessments are not confirmation of current law or a prediction about your circumstances.
Registration and tax requirements
The registration of religious and belief groups is regulated by the law governing religious freedom, and religious and spiritual organizations (Law No. 1161).
LGBTI+ rights
Bolivia’s Constitution and laws are relatively progressive on the subject of LGBTI+ rights. Article 14 of the Constitution bans discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. Article 58 recognizes the right of children to express themselves in a gender identity of their choice as a right “inherent to their development”.
Secular reform
In 2009, Bolivia voted in a referendum to approve a new secular Constitution that removed Catholicism as the official state religion. The 2009 Constitution provides a number of guarantees with respect to the right to freedom of religion or belief.

How can I prepare to leave religion?
For planning to leave in Bolivia, Rage 2 Rebuild suggests this decision: Choose the first change you can make without losing an essential support. The two starting points below address formal identity, private belief and public disclosure. Check consequential facts with appropriate current help; these are reflection prompts, not a certified procedure.
Separate three different changes
What you believe, what an institution records and what you tell another person are different questions. You can stop finding a teaching persuasive without immediately changing a document, resigning from an organization or discussing it at home. Write down which of those changes you want and which is being demanded by somebody else.
Start with practical dependence
Consider housing, income, documents, devices, children, immigration status and ongoing care. Identify who controls each item and what would change if they learned about your beliefs. A person who is emotionally supportive may still be unable to provide accommodation or confidential advice. Be specific about the support you actually have.

How did religious identity change in Bolivia?
Rage 2 Rebuild’s Bolivia table shows 4.0% religiously unaffiliated in 2010 and 9.5% in 2020, using Pew’s all-age population estimates. The seven categories describe religious identity, not how many individuals left religion or experienced harm. Rounded population changes cannot predict acceptance, guilt, safety or a support outcome.
| Identity | 2010 | 2020 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Christian | 95.7% | 88.9% | -6.8 pp |
| Muslim | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Religiously unaffiliated | 4.0% | 9.5% | +5.5 pp |
| Buddhist | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Hindu | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Jewish | Less than 0.1% | Less than 0.1% | Not calculated |
| Other religions | 0.2% | 1.5% | +1.3 pp |
“Other religions” combines traditions that cannot be analyzed separately here. A “less than” input stays an inequality; a change involving it is not calculated. Rounding and demographic processes matter. Nationality does not establish anyone’s beliefs.
