Brief Summary
Explanatory notes on how to complete a standard track application for a Gender Recognition Certificate.
Extract from Document
This document is designed to assist applicants for a Gender Recognition Certificate. If your acquired gender has been recognised under the law of another country, you should read the explanatory leaflet carefully and, if necessary you should complete the Overseas Track application form and NOT this application form. Before completing the form, you should read all the explanatory material carefully, so that you are fully aware of the consequences of applying for gender recognition. Each section indicates what information you should include in the corresponding section on the form. An application under this process must demonstrate that they have lived full time in their acquired gender for at least two years at the date of the application. Further details can be found in the explanatory leaflet: a guide to users.
These guidance notes should answer most of the questions you may have regarding the application form. We recommend that you read the relevant notes before completing each section of the form. If you do find the application form difficult to complete on your own, you could ask a friend or someone from a support organisation to help you, or you can telephone the Gender Recognition Panel on 0300 123 4503 and one of the administrators will be happy to provide support.
