We obtain a non-linear generalization of the relativistic diffusion. We discuss diffusion equations whose non-linearity is a consequence of quantum statistics. We show that the assumptions of the relativistic invariance and an interpretation of the solution as a probability distribution substantially restrict the class of admissible non-linear diffusion equations. We consider relativistic invariant as well as covariant frame-dependent diffusion equations with a drift. In the latter case we show that there can exist stationary solutions of the diffusion equation besides the equilibrium solution corresponding to the quantum or Tsallis distributions. We define the relative entropy as a function of the diffusion probability and prove that it is monotonically decreasing in time when the diffusion tends to equilibrium. We discuss its relation to the thermodynamic behavior of diffusing particles.
