Transgender ID Change in Oregon
Oregon State ID Change
To change the gender marker, needs a letter from a state-recognized gender therapist stating the applicant is living full-time in the target gender. In the “worst-case” to change said marker, a court order backed by a physician’s letter stating that genital realignment surgery has been performed will be needed.
A name change can be part of an original, renewal or replacement transaction for a driver license, driver permit or identification card. You will need to visit a DMV office in person, and will be asked to provide:
- Proof of your Full Legal Name;
- Proof of your Legal Presence in U.S., Identity and Date of Birth;
- Your Social Security Number; and
- Pay any applicable fees.
See http://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/DMV/dv/chgname.shtml for more information on acceptable documents.
Oregon Birth Certificate Change

The telephone contact is (971) 673-1137.
