  • Do they maintain a record of it’s alterations though.

    Ed: answer yes, so there is still record that it is not your birth gender it just isn’t easily accessible unless the legal system gets involved.

    If you were born in N.S.W. and have had gender reassignment surgery, you can apply to have your birth certificate amended to reflect your correct gender. The new birth certificate will not show that you have changed your gender, but there will be a note on your new certificate that says your birth was “previously registered in another name”. Your birth will be registered in the current year showing the new sex. Access to your original birth record is restricted by legislation, but can be accessed under certain circumstances
