Identity Documents
- These laws and policies allow transgender and nonbinary people to update the gender markers on their identity documents so that their identity documents reflect their gender identity. This can reduce the likelihood that they will experience harassment, discrimination, or even violence when asked to show an ID. These laws also govern what gender options are available to people updating their gender marker, and the processes by which people can legally change their name.
