Entry #5077: Right to change legal gender in Peru

Current Version

Region	Peru
Issue	Right to change legal gender
Status	Ambiguous
Start Date	Oct 21, 2016
End Date	(none)
Description	In 2016, the Constitutional Court issued a ruling (No. 6040-2015-PA/TC) establishing that name and gender change claims be resolved by civil courts in summary proceedings, without treating trans identity as a pathology or illness. However, the court did not define requirements or procedures. It is reported that the process is very difficult and costly both in time needed and the burden of paying for several lawyers to navigate complicated judicial procedures. Even when the judicial outcome may be favorable to the plaintiffs, it has been reported that the National Registry of Identification and Civil Status (RENIEC) almost systematically files appeals to prevent gender marker changes. In 2023, the entity responded that the Civil Code allows it to file appeals to reevaluate the grounds for a decision. “One of the grounds for appeal is when it is considered that the name and/or sex change ordered by the trial judge is not based on justified reasons, as required by Article 29 of the Civil Code, or when the right to reasoned judicial decisions has been violated,” they added. In 2020, a transgender woman obtained a favorable ruling to change the sex assigned on her ID. The entity had five days to appeal, but, in the midst of Christmas celebrations, it did not do so. With this, Dania became the first trans woman to successfully change her assigned sex without undergoing genital reassignment surgery, although she was asked for psychological certificates to prove that she was trans. Law 32,331 that Strengthens the Right to Sexual indemnity of Children and Adolescents was passed in May 2025 and establishes in its Article 5.1 the prohibition of entering and using of bathrooms of public use to every person whose biological sex does not coincide with the sex for which the aforementioned service has been allocated.

Description	According to PROMSEX, a leading local organisation, the lack of a specific law regulating the legal recognition of gender means that "transgender people seeking recognition of their social name and gender have to resort to a judicial process in civil proceedings". A process described as "cumbersome, long and often full of stereotypes (...) [which] contains more steps and longer deadlines, leading to a longer time for the resolution of the case". Generally, court proceedings for legal gender recognition require a person to undergo gender affirmative surgery and other pathologising requirements. In July 2020, the Third Transitory Constitutional Court of the Superior Court of Lima ordered in its Judgment No. 12 (2020) that the National Registry of Identification and Civil Status (RENIEC) must develop a procedure to rectify the name, sex and image components of the ID documents of trans and intersex persons, through an administrative procedure without pathologising requirements. However, RENIEC appealed this judgment and the final resolution is still pending. In 2021, five years after it was originally submitted, the Parliamentary Commission for Women and Family of the Peruvian Congress provided its opinion on the Gender Identity Bill (Bill No. 790-2016) (2016). As of January 2023, the bill is still pending. Moroever, in September of 2021, local media reported that for the first time in Peruvian history, a civil court ruled in favour of a trans woman who requested to change her name and sex on her DNI without undergoing gender affirmation surgery.
