China
There are cases in China where marital rape has been criminalized, although the crime generally needs to occur during a period of irregularity in the state of the marriage. Some reported cases are:
 * Wang Weiming in 1999: "In general, the husband cannot be the subject of the crime of rape. However, the obligation of conjugal cohabitation is an ethical obligation presumed from the act of voluntary marriage instead of a mandatory obligation under the law... It is not scientific to disregard all marital rape behavior as a crime. For example, in the period when the marriage relationship is not normal, ... it can no longer be presumed that the woman consent to the sexual behavior."
 * Zhao (attempted) in 2021: Article 236 of the Penal Code, which stipulates that "Anyone who rapes a woman by violence, coercion or other means shall be sentenced to imprisonment for a term of not less than three years and not more than ten years", does not exclude "husbands" from being the subject of the crime of rape. Therefore, the husband can become the subject of the crime of rape. When it comes to judicial practice, whether the "marital raping" husband constitute the crime? The key to the implementation of specific behavior when the marital relationship is in a normal state. In the case of normal marital relations, the husband will not become the subject of the crime of rape. If the marital relationship is in an abnormal and unstable situation, it may constitute the crime of rape, such as: the couple's relationship breaks up, the two live apart, one has sued for divorce (including when the prosecution to the court has not been decided or the first-instance verdict has not yet come into effect during the period), the marital relationship is in a non-normal, unstable state; marital relationship which the law prohibits, including the arranged, selling, coerced marriages, or other invalidated situation by law; the husband abets or helps another person to rape his wife and becomes an accomplice in the commission of the rape.

Cases which not recognized as a crime after 1999:
 * Wu Yuexiong in 2000.
