Hello. Sorry, I don't have time to edit the article myself, but I thought I would mention that both [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rights_of_Transgender_Persons_Bill,_2014 India] and [http://www.senate.gov.pk/uploads/documents/1503334623_218.pdf Pakistan] have enacted anti-discrimination legislation against transgender people, including non-binary people. The India one explicitly mentions "gender-queers". The Pakistan one defines gender identity as "male, female or a blend of both or neither". Information from these acts would be good to add to the article.

== Overlap with [[Legal gender]]? ==
 
There seems like a big topic overlap between [[Gender recognition]] and [[legal gender]]. --[[User:TXJ|TXJ]] ([[User talk:TXJ|talk]]) 18:39, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
:{{ping|TXJ}} good point, the main difference is that [[legal gender]]'s UK section is much longer, but we already have [[Recognition (UK)]]. I'll add it to my to-do list to merge the articles. Thanks! --[[User:Ondo|Ondo]] ([[User talk:Ondo|talk]]) 20:25, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
::Done! I've added a redirect from [[legal gender]] to here. --[[User:Ondo|Ondo]] ([[User talk:Ondo|talk]]) 14:32, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
 
== Gender reassignment in Japan ==
 
Legal gender reassignment requirements in Japan may change significantly in the future.
In 2023, the Japanese Supreme Court ruled that the requirement of sterilization for legal gender reassignment is a violation of the Constitution. No decision has yet been made on the requirement to change the shape of the genitalia.
 
Since major changes are expected in the near future, the situation should be closely monitored and updated from time to time.
