No consta como delito en su código penal ni existe un protocolo de actuación de asistencia. La violencia de género en Guinea Conakry es tratada como cualquier otro delito de violencia y sólo se contemplan los casos de violencia física. No hay contemplaciones para la psicológica. Un planteamiento que procede de los 24 años de gobierno del fallecido Lansana Conté y del régimen militar que lo sucedió hasta 2011.
