Section 40 Gender Identity on a Marriage License

Section 13 of said chapter 46, as so appearing, is hereby amended by adding the following subsection:-
(l) Upon application of both parties to a marriage, the record of marriage shall be amended to remove the sex of one or both parties to the marriage and change one or both party's name following receipt of the following by the state registrar or town clerk:
(1) an affidavit executed by the parties to the marriage on a form provided by the registrar attesting to their concurrence that the record be amended to reflect or remove the gender identity or sex of the parties; and
(2) in cases where a party requests a change of name, evidence of the party's legal change of name.

This section removes the requirement that an individual receive a court order in order to amend their gender identity on a marriage certificate.
