Diverse/third option

Since late 2018, intersex people in Germany have been able to select the third gender option “diverse” in their ID card. The third option “diverse” is offered in addition to “male” and “female”. However, people who do not yet meet the criteria for the third option, for example transgender or non-binary people, may apply for an additional ID card, an “Ergänzungsausweis” (only available in German) from dgti e.V. This additional ID card is known and accepted by all ministries of the interior, the police and other authorities, as well as banks, universities, insurance companies and other offices. It therefore serves to prevent discrimination in the authorities.
