On May 25, 2022, the First Civil Court of Santiago issued a ruling recognizing an adult person as non-binary and ordering the Civil Registry to rectify the birth certificate. On October 14, 2022, the Civil Registry officially issued to Shane Cienfuegos the first non-binary identity card with the marker "X" in the country. In May 2023, the first Chilean passport with a non-binary gender marker was granted to Valentino Victoria Liberona. "I" option for intersex children is available on birth certificates. |
