Wijziging van de Paspoortwet in verband met het schrappen van de geslachtsvermelding op de Nederlandse identiteitskaart

Stage committeeUpdated 6d ago

This Dutch bill, introduced in the Tweede Kamer (House of Representatives), would amend the Passport Act (Paspoortwet) so that the gender designation no longer appears on the Dutch identity card. The change concerns how the state records and displays personal identity information on official documents. Based on the title alone, it is not clear what replaces the marker or how the change would be implemented. The change would apply to Dutch identity card holders and to the authorities that issue and process these documents. It may be of particular interest to people whose gender identity does not match the marker on their documents, including transgender and non-binary people. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text.
