Transgender ID Change in Texas

Texas State ID Change

Transgender ID change: How to change your driver's license, id cards and birth certificate in the U.S.To change the gender marker requires the applicant to show court records or an amended birth certificate.

After a legal name change, you are required to notify the DPS within 30 days. A fee of $10 is required. In order to change your name, you must apply at any Texas Driver License office and present your marriage certificate/license or court order to initiate the change. No name will be used that has not been previously documented.

Texas Birth Certificate Change

Go to:
http://www.dshs.state.tx.us/vs/reqproc/forms.shtm

and open Form VS-2318.1A.

Print it out and fill it out.

The fees to file an amendment to a birth certificate are $15.00. The cost of a certified copy of the birth certificate is $22.00 for each certificate. The fees were raised in December of 2005. There are two styles of the birth certificate, a short form or abstract, and a long-form. The short form is printed from the computer system and will only show the new name, date of birth, place of birth, sex, and parent’s names.

The long-form is a photocopy of the original birth record filed with our office at the time of birth onto our certified paper that will show the amendment underneath. On the long form you will be able to see the old information and the new information and how it was changed. It is up to you which style of birth certificate you want. We will automatically issue the short form or abstract unless you specifically request the long-form.

Certified copy of the court order granting name and gender change

Along with your application and fees, you will need to submit a certified copy of the court order granting the name and gender change. The court order must have the original stamp or seal and signature of the clerk of the court. We can accept court orders from any state within the US. The court order does not have to come from a Texas Court if you do not live in the state of Texas.

We do not need a copy of the SRS letter or a photocopy of your driver’s license because the court will have verified all the information.

If you send us the Application, correct fees, and CERTIFIED COPY of the court order, your request will NOT be denied. The Vital Statistics Office in Austin, Texas is the only office that has the authority to make any changes or corrections to a birth certificate for a person born in the state of Texas.

  1. Hiya,
    Long ago, we created Electrology 2000 inc. where we cleared away beards on hundreds of folks over 16 yeas. I just put a little book on Amazon . . . Real Trans Straight Truth – Kindle edition by Rose, Sharon . Health, Fitness & Dieting Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.

    I always wanted to offer help to the general public as well as T folk ( as I call us ), and now that I am retired, I have total freedom to do so. I remember when growing up, there was nothing at all to help me understand anything. SO, this publication is for those who need what we never had back then. Its based not so much on myself but the hundreds of T folk that we knew and helped.

    If this might help in any way, please share.

    Sharon Rose
