- 《禁止蒙面規例》（英語：Prohibition on Face Covering Regulation）（又稱《禁蒙面法》、《反蒙面法》或《反幪面法》），是香港一條於2019年10月4日根據《緊急情況規例條例》所訂立的附屬法例。香港政府認為規例禁止市民在集會及遊行時使用物品遮掩面部，及提供法理依據讓警務人員遮掩面部，希望藉此對集會或遊行人士形成阻嚇力，減少暴力行為和為執法者收集證據，以及協助警務人員執行職務時可隱藏身份。 早在2016年，葛珮帆曾在立法會討論旺角騷亂的會議上提出訂立《禁蒙面法》，但後來在朝野的質疑下不了了之。及後在2019年的反對逃犯條例修訂草案運動期間，抗爭手法轉趨激烈，全香港的示威活動均具破壞性。政府認為示威者因遮掩面部才會恃無忌憚作出違法行為，期望透過阻止市民在集會中蒙面恢復法律應有的阻嚇作用。因此，時任香港行政長官林鄭月娥在2019年10月4日以行政長官會同行政會議形式引用《緊急情況規例條例》繞過立法會訂立《禁蒙面法》。法例在訂立後隨即成為反修例運動抗爭者的新反抗目標，破壞性的示威活動反而愈演愈激烈。 高等法院上訴庭於2020年4月9日頒布判詞，裁定律政司上訴部得直，裁定以《緊急法》實施《禁止蒙面規例》沒有違憲，惟只在「非法集結」及「未經批准集結」的情況下生效。 (zh)

| - The Prohibition on Face Covering Regulation (Cap. 241K) ("PFCR") is a regulation prohibiting the wearing of face coverings in certain circumstances made by Chief Executive in Council under the Emergency Regulations Ordinance due to the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests. The Court of First Instance heard applications for judicial review from 24 members of the Legislative Council (LegCo) and Leung Kwok-hung, a former LegCo member, submitted in early October. On 18 November, it ruled that both the prohibition on the wearing of masks and related powers granted to the police to enforce it are inconsistent with the Hong Kong Bill of Rights, whilst leaving the question of relief to a future hearing. On 22 November, the court declared the PFCR invalid and of no effect, but suspended the application of that declaration till 29 November 2019. The government appealed the decision on 25 November to the Court of Appeal, which partially allowed the government's appeal. The prohibition of masks at unauthorised assemblies was ruled to be constitutional, but the power to remove masks and the prohibition on wearing masks at authorised assemblies was ruled unconstitutional. On appeal, the Court of Final Appeal upheld the constitutionality of the PFCR in its entirety, including the prohibition on face coverings at authorised assemblies and processions. (en)
- 《禁止蒙面規例》（英語：Prohibition on Face Covering Regulation）（又稱《禁蒙面法》、《反蒙面法》或《反幪面法》），是香港一條於2019年10月4日根據《緊急情況規例條例》所訂立的附屬法例。香港政府認為規例禁止市民在集會及遊行時使用物品遮掩面部，及提供法理依據讓警務人員遮掩面部，希望藉此對集會或遊行人士形成阻嚇力，減少暴力行為和為執法者收集證據，以及協助警務人員執行職務時可隱藏身份。 早在2016年，葛珮帆曾在立法會討論旺角騷亂的會議上提出訂立《禁蒙面法》，但後來在朝野的質疑下不了了之。及後在2019年的反對逃犯條例修訂草案運動期間，抗爭手法轉趨激烈，全香港的示威活動均具破壞性。政府認為示威者因遮掩面部才會恃無忌憚作出違法行為，期望透過阻止市民在集會中蒙面恢復法律應有的阻嚇作用。因此，時任香港行政長官林鄭月娥在2019年10月4日以行政長官會同行政會議形式引用《緊急情況規例條例》繞過立法會訂立《禁蒙面法》。法例在訂立後隨即成為反修例運動抗爭者的新反抗目標，破壞性的示威活動反而愈演愈激烈。 《禁蒙面法》的訂立成為了自1997年香港主權移交以來首次動用《緊急法》的事件。訂立法例在社會上引起廣泛爭議，在多個層面都引起激烈爭論，包括是否適合使用《緊急法》、規例是否的有效達到目的、可能做成的負面影響，以至規例的合憲性。民主及本土陣營共25位立法會議員及前議員就法例向高等法院提出司法覆核，並在2019年11月18日勝訴。法院裁定《緊急情況規例條例》及《禁止蒙面規例》的條文違反《香港基本法》，而律政司及警務處亦即時暫停按有關法例作出非法拘捕及起訴。 特區政府隨後提出上訴，聆訊於2020年1月9日至10日進行，並於2020年4月9日作出裁決。在2019冠狀病毒病疫情威脅下，民主及本土陣營要求特區政府擱置上訴。公民黨立法會議員郭榮鏗批評政府妄顧市民健康，指出《禁止蒙面規例》會影響防疫。特區政府仍然堅持上訴，表示條例中醫學或健康理由使用蒙面物品是可以豁免。 高等法院上訴庭於2020年4月9日頒布判詞，裁定律政司上訴部得直，裁定以《緊急法》實施《禁止蒙面規例》沒有違憲，惟只在「非法集結」及「未經批准集結」的情況下生效。 但律政司及泛民主派都不服上訴庭的判決，並已分別入稟上訴庭申請終審上訴許可並獲批准。2020年12月21日，香港終審法院裁定民主派就《緊急情況規例條例》及《禁止蒙面規例》司法覆核敗訴，政府終極上訴得直。但由於政府一方沒有就《禁止蒙面規例》第5條，即「警務人員有權要求身處公眾地方人士除去蒙面物品」違憲的裁決上訴，因此該條維持失效。 (zh)
