The decision was made in the case of a transgender person from Romania who changed her gender and surname in the UK before Brexit. The CJEU ruled that a Member State's refusal to recognize a gender reassignment obtained in another Member State contravenes EU law, regardless of Brexit. The decision comes in support of the LGBTQ+ community and underlines the importance of recognizing gender change at EU level.
