I have not fully tested it based on combined region compatibility using My Huawei and App Gallery. Currently the GMS functions only in Malaysia and possibly Thailand, Singapore. It appears to be supported by EMUI 12 – 13 and possibly Harmony OS 2.0.
Testing regional access:

I expect Google LLC will eventually block lighthouse from their servers given the high volume of traffic will catch their attention. It was first published in Malaysia app gallery about 4 months ago to use with the line application. More rencently the Lighthouse application was revised to provide support for select Google apps. The release of Huawei mate 50 pro in Malaysia demonstrated lighthouse operating successfully. It does not work based on region settings for Europe, America’s, China, Japan, South Korea, India etc. There has been reported functionality in the Philippines.

The Lighthouse APK corresponds to microg services core. The Lighthouse ex apk corresponds to fake store microg. It is unclear if downloading microg proxy services framework, Droid guard helper microg improves connectivity or push notifications. There is little risk in downloading and installing these apps. They are available from MicroG download website.

Unable to add Google Account to backup LINE chats.
Google Translate can access the app page. but can’t translate language
Google Calendar when entering the app page will immediately bounce out. It cannot be used in the HUAWEI nova 10 Pro model that we use to test.
