Eighty representatives from the National Assembly, Ministries, NGOs and UN organisations gave their recommendations for the Gender Affirmation Law, which was drafted in June and is being amended by the Ministry of Health to present to the National Assembly Standing Committee this year.

The Draft Gender Affirmation Law will enable transgender people to apply for recognition without having undergone sex change surgery, and they can choose to have sex change surgery or not.

Familial ties to parents and partners are kept intact, including foster children. All certificates and diplomas' rights are kept, and transgender people will be eligible to compete in sports. They are not obligated to be sterilised in genital operations unless they want to.

Transgender people, according to the draft, should also be able to marry their new gender after recognition. Trans men, should they get pregnant, are eligible for maternity leave according to labour law and social insurance policies.

The draft also forbids human trafficking, sexual assault, and discriminative acts against transgender people, such as expulsion from school or termination of jobs due to being transgender.

Requirements for medical facilities to implement sex change surgery and hormone therapy for sex change are also included in the draft, according to the Ministry of Health.
