Bulgaria a autorizat din nou schimbarea legală de sex, după cinci ani de blocaj

The Bulgarian Supreme Court has authorized legal gender changes in four cases, marking a significant shift in transgender rights recognition. This decision follows a ruling from the European Court of Justice and is the first of its kind since 2020. The court emphasized that denying such changes based on biological, moral, or religious grounds constitutes unequal treatment. Bulgaria and Hungary were previously noted as the only EU countries lacking legal recognition for gender identity. The Supreme Court's actions aim to align Bulgarian law with EU standards, following a suspension of ongoing cases since 2020.
