Spain enacts self-ID gender recognition law (Ley Trans)
Spain's parliament gave final approval to a law allowing people over 16 to change their legally-recognised gender without medical evaluation, replacing a previous requirement of a gender dysphoria diagnosis and two years of hormonal treatment. The process now involves a simple declaration confirmed three months later, with judicial approval for ages 12-13 and parental permission for ages 14-15. The law is seen as protective for trans rights, removing medical barriers to legal gender recognition.
