Transvanilla continues the campaign aiming to open the possibility of legal gender recognition in Hungary. As part of this, individuals and organisations can help us the following ways:

The Hungarian Parliament voted in favor of a bill today that outlaws legal gender recognition in the country.

The amendment to the Act on Civil Registration Procedure, which outlaws legal gender recognition in Hungary comes into effect after being signed by János Áder, President of Hungary. The Constitutional Court remains the last option in the country to stop the government’s amok run. Transvanilla Transgender Association on behalf of two persons affected by the law, files a constitutional complaint to the Constitutional Court the day it comes into force, seeking a declaration that the law is unconstitutional and therefore should be annulled.

The Hungarian government plans to ban legal gender recognition. However, according to international human rights standards, the government can not run away from his responsibility.
