Internal Affairs' more flexible passport policy for transgender and intersex people is on the way, however implementation has been delayed for a couple of weeks to ensure a smooth ride.

Byrne says any trans or intersex people who need a new passport with their new sex on it urgently can email Julie Watson at the Human Rights Commission (juliew@hrc.co.nz), who can put them in touch with the Internal Affairs staff member dealing with urgent requests.
