Changing Legal Gender Assignment in Canada - Alberta

Alberta

To change one's legal gender in Alberta, The Vital Statistics Act (section 22) requires affidavits from two doctors stating that the applicant's "Anatomical sex has been changed". These affidavits must be signed by the doctors in the presence of a commissioner for oaths or a notary public. In addition, a statutory declaration must be completed by the applicant and signed before a commissioner for oaths or a notary public. The statutory declaration (REG 3108) can be obtained by writing to the Vital Statistics office. The completed statutory declaration and the affidavits must be returned to this office with a $20 amendment fee.
