TGEU/Posted on 17. May 2016 in Country Information, Legal Gender Recognition
"The French National Assembly will debate this week a proposal that could introduce for the first time a gender recognition procedure in the country. The proposal foresees a self-declaratory juridical procedure. Accordingly, an individual could start a procedure before the prosecutor, if accompanied by one of the following forms of evidence:
– Certificates or evidence that the person is known in the self-determined gender identity in the sphere of family, friends or workplace;
– Medical affidavits that medical treatment has been started or completed;
– Documents or correspondence stating that the person is known by the claimed identity;
– Court decisions asserting the individual has suffered from trans-related discrimination;
– Decisions about a Name Change (change to a name corresponding to the gender identity requested)."
