You need a medical diagnosis to obtain a GRC, then you have a two year wait in which you have to live your life as the gender you identify as and intend to do so permanently.

I appreciate that you might have an issue with people living their life without the GRC, but you do realise it's a stipulation to do so? So if they don't, their application will not be granted. What are trans people to do?

…see, this is a confusion that I was trying to clarify as well…has Marla-Svenja Liebich lived as a female at all and has a GRC…?…and why with a custodial sentence which has to be served without any thought of parole, has it taken two years of bail or freedom for that sentence to begin…

…(…it seems that…)…’Liebich had changed gender and first name by making a "simple declaration" to the registry office in Schkeuditz in north-west Saxony’.…this is based on the new regulations of the Self-Determination Act, which came into force in November last year…however this is also stated in the article I’ll link…

‘The Saxon Ministry of Justice emphasised to the local daily Mitteldeutsche Zeitung that additional psychological or medical reports can be used in certain cases. These include, for example, if there is a suspicion that someone may have deliberately changed the gender entry in order to influence the prison conditions.’

…so it’s all a bit of an absolute, total mess really and a German government mess that was due to be reviewed in 2026 but hopefully this case will be looked at now…
