Transgender Military Service Rules: New Requirements

New regulations define military service rules for transgender individuals. They introduce restrictions for those diagnosed with gender dysphoria and those who have undergone or require gender transition. Citizens planning military service should review these changes to understand how they might affect their ability to join or continue serving.
Key points
Individuals with a gender dysphoria diagnosis can serve only in limited circumstances, e.g., after 36 consecutive months of stability in their biological sex prior to accession.
Service members diagnosed with gender dysphoria after entering service may be retained if they do not require gender change and remain deployable; treatment excludes gender reassignment surgery or hormone therapy initiation.
Transgender individuals who have undergone or require gender transition are disqualified from military service.
Transgender individuals without a history of gender dysphoria may serve in their biological sex if otherwise qualified.
