Mexico adds nonbinary option to passports in “great leap” for the “dignity of people”

Mexico has officially begun allowing citizens to identify as nonbinary on their passports.

On Wednesday, May 17th, in honor of the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia, the Foreign Ministry held an event to celebrate its new inclusive policy and issue its first-ever nonbinary passport to magistrate and activist Ociel Baena.

“Legally, we have finally returned same-sex couples to their children.”

Nonbinary Mexicans now have the option to select “X” as their gender marker, rather than male or female. Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard called the move “a great leap for the freedom and dignity of people.”
