Denmark Issues Travel Warning for Transgender People Visiting US
Following President Trump’s executive orders restricting transgender rights, Denmark’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs updated its U.S. travel advice. The revision highlights that U.S. visa applications only offer male or female gender options, advising transgender individuals with non-binary passport designations or gender changes to contact the American embassy beforehand. This action mirrors similar updates from Britain and Germany, reflecting concerns about potential U.S. entry denials for transgender travelers. The change follows advocacy from LGBT+ Denmark, prompted by worries of airport detention and mistreatment.
