"Regulation of Execution of the Register of Deaths, Births and Marriages Act defines legal gender recognition as a relatively quick administrative procedure as the application for legal gender recognition is submitted to one of the administration units in Slovenia. After the administration unit issues a new birth certificate reflecting one’s own gender (without reference to the previous gender), the person can apply for new documents. This is accessible only to persons aged 18 or more and with full legal capacity. There are no legal provisions for a third/other gender options."
