- Status is not correct "gender identity based discrimination has also been made illegal fairly recently "
- Status is not correct "Gender Identity (since 2013 law). No sources to hand but I imagine it's verifiable. Thanks"
- Status is not correct "On 19 January, the Portuguese Parliament voted for the inclusion of gender identity as a protected ground of discrimination in the field of employment. Gender identity will now be added to sexual orientation and several other grounds in the non-discrimination clauses of the Portuguese Labour Code.
