Hawaii HB257 amends birth certificate regulations to allow for new certificates reflecting updated sex designations.
Hawaii HB257 modifies the process for issuing new birth certificates to include updated sex designations based on genitalia. The new certificate can be issued under specific conditions, such as upon receipt of a final adoption decree, an affidavit from a licensed physician, or a court order determining the nonexistence of a parent-child relationship. The new certificate will reflect any legal name changes and will not substitute for the original birth certificate, which will remain in place.
