Abstract: Intimate visits are usually a controversial topic, and information about its treatment globally is scarce. However, some published research show that the practice is widespread in Latin America, and legislation in the regions formally regulate the matter. Therefore, in this initial work, we briefly analyse the legislation of four countries in the region—Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, and Argentina—in order to identify similarities and differences. Hopefully this will shed light on this topic, contributing to further debate and exchange of experiences.
