Supreme Court of Nepal has ruled that Rukshana Kapali , a transgender woman, should be legally recognized on all documents as a woman without having to submit to medical verification.
Despite the court order, the lack of a clear central policy has created problems.
Trans people in Nepal today who want to change their gender markers to “female” or “male” are typically forced to undergo surgery, which requires traveling outside the country and then in-country medical assessments.
