| Description | In Madagascar, LGB people do not appear to be expressly banned from military service. By contrast, transgender people appear to be de facto barred from open service, since Madagascar has no legal gender-recognition framework, no express military protection for gender identity, and no confirmed policy permitting service in an affirmed gender. |
