Share your experiences in our new survey: Law Beyond the Binary in Europe & Central Asia
What is the survey about?
The survey explores how people whose gender identity is on the non-binary spectrum experience the law, and whether they would like to see the law changed to better accommodate gender identities beyond the binary.
Aims of the survey
The survey hopes to create a better understanding of how the ability (or inability) to access identity documents with sex/gender markers beyond the binary impacts the daily lives of people in Europe and Central Asia. Ultimately, by increasing knowledge and awareness – among policy makers, civil society, academic researchers and the general public – the survey aims to contribute to the work of developing legal systems which are more inclusive of people whose gender identity is on the non-binary spectrum.

Non-binary people, trans asylum seekers, and trans people in Hungary face even more barriers to healthcare in the EU.
In Hungary, the situation is dire.
There's a ban on legal gender recognition and supportive healthcare providers face immense pressure. (my note: we can't even change out name as name in Hungary is bound to gender marker in your ID, as a "male" you are allowed to take a name from the "list of male names").
Many trans people in Hungary are forced to put their treatment on hold or seek care abroad, paying for it out of their own pockets if they can afford it.
Many States exclude trans people seeking asylum until their claims are processed, or only offer care if treatment began in their home country, as seen in Denmark.

SleepyCattenHey folks 
For those considering fleeing the US to Europe in light of the 2024 US election results, we recommend that you check out these resources:
- The Trans Health Map 2024 by TGEU (Trans Europe and Central Asia).
- You can view it in map or raw data format.
- It is a good starting point to help you determine whether you could even get care there for yourselves, and it highlights where having a disability, being neurodivergent, and/or struggling with mental health may hinder your access to healthcare.
- The 2024 Rainbow Map produced by ILGA-Europe.
- This is particularly useful for seeing how poor LGBTQIA+ rights are in many countries, against what the common perception might be from a US viewpoint.
There are lots of other considerations you will need to take into account, but we wanted to make you all aware of these resources to help you along 🇪🇺
Boosts welcome to spread the info to others 
Edit: Here is some additional relevant context, as pointed out by a lovely comment 
These maps are essentially display the legal situation, which does not necessarily reflect how things are done by hospitals, doctors, federal officials etc.
These maps also do not, by themselves, show how many extra hurdles there can be to obtaining healthcare, especially trans+ healthcare, as a migrant, and especially if you do not speak a native language fluently.
Please also note that some countries might have healthcare monopolies or a figurative geographical lottery on healthcare.
Basically, you really need to do your research before moving, including asking other migrants what their experiences have been.
