Summary
Denmark has issued a travel warning for transgender individuals visiting the U.S., advising them to contact the American embassy if their passport has a gender designation “X” or differs from their birth gender.
This follows Trump administration policies restricting trans rights, including an executive order recognizing only two sexes and a ban on transgender military service, which faces legal challenges.
Similar warnings have been issued by Britain and Germany amid concerns of discrimination and denial of entry.
I think the problem arises when the embassy says it’s fine to come, but then the traveling person’s are detained or harassed once they arrive.
There’s nothing I’m personally aware of stating trans persons to be outright illegal ( beyond the executive order(?) stating there are only two genders/sexes )
Which has been happening. (Approvals from the embassy but then being detained by ICE)
