As of November 25th Portugal has a law regulating legal gender recognition that fills a pressing need in the country. In addition, Portugal joins Spain and the UK in passing similar laws that don't require genital surgery to do so. .
All a person has to do under the new law is use a standardized administrative procedure within 8 days. In addition to the application, a certificate from a medical multi-disciplinary team is necessary to fulfill the pre-conditions.
Once that is done the documentation is issued with the preferred gender ID.
Congratulations! It's another step forward in helping make the lives of transpeople just a little more bearable by having ID that matches your gender presentation.
