We've had increasing documentation of incidents in which transpeople have been denied entry at world airports in various nations or are harassed by customs officials when they do.

It was one of the reasons why the US State Department changed its policy last summer and allowed transpeople to acquire passports that have gender markers consistent with current gender presentation rather than being based on birth gender.
