Trans woman takes passport stand
p4_replacement_news_pic_250.jpgRachel Cook

Trans woman Stefanie Imbruglia this week filed a complaint with the Human Rights & Equal Opportunities Commission (HREOC) about the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) over its passport legislation, which she says puts gender-diverse people in danger when travelling.

Last year the Howard government amended the passport legislation to disallow pre-operative trans people from gaining a passport in their presenting gender. Imbruglia, cousin of singer Natalie Imbruglia, was told she would have to travel overseas on a male passport despite presenting as female.

In her complaint, she alleges that DFAT was in contravention of Article 12 of the United Nations Charter on Human Rights, in that it refused to issue her with a safe travel document in order that she could travel aboard freely.
