U.S. laws covering driver's license gender change process 2025, by type of law
As of February 10, 2025, 21 states use an easy-to-understand form and do not require provider certification to change the gender listed on an individual's driver's license. Many of those states also allow residents to mark M, F, or X on the ID. Ten states require proof of surgery, court, order, or amended birth certificate, while four states do not allow for updating the gender marker at all. These states include Texas, Florida, and Kansas.
