I have a Philippine ladyboy friend. She has no passport. She said we can get her birth certificate. Is it possible to get her passport to read female? Possibly someone in the Philippines can do that. She is very feminine. I know Australia let's ladyboys choose female on their passport if they wish. thanks

Is it possible to get her passport to read female?
Doubtful. No country allows it unless they allow to change legal gender. In the case when they allow it, the person must have undergone SRS.

Getting the passport is not difficult, but changing the sex from M to F is not possible in the Philippines. This entry is from Wikipedia:
The Philippine Supreme Court has also ruled that Filipino citizens do not have the right to legally change their sex on official documents (driver's license, passport, birth certificate, Social Security records, etc.) if they are transsexual and have undergone sexual reassignment surgery.[31] The Court said that if the man, now anatomically a female, were to be allowed to legally change his sex it would have “serious and wide-ranging legal and public policy consequences,” citing the institution of marriage in particular.[32]

Just out of curiousity here, I have a Filipino squeeze (i.e. ladyboy) and we will want to visit Thailand next year departing from Manila
My question is will she have problems with a Visa getting into Thailand even though we will be returning to the Philippines together?
What she asked of me at the end of the Day,
Caligula would have blushed

Duke, Angel and I went to Thailand 2 years ago. She already had a passport and her implants. Her passport reads "male", and gives her man's first name. I don't know if things have changed since then, but she didn't need a visa, and we encountered no problems whatsoever.

Both Thailand and the Philippines are ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) members. Travel between member countries should not require a visa.

Should not be a problem to travel fom PH to Thailand with a passport as a visa is not required. But to obtain a passport ( and leave the philippines ) Filipinos will need their NBI certificate to prove no criminal convictions. Like all things Filipino , getting an NBI can take time !

Sorry , I didn't reply to your original post. You probably will NOT be able to get any documents in her female name. I have recently arranged a Passport , NBI , TB check and English Test for my LB Fiancee but the Philippino authorities insist on using her Boy ( birth ) name. Even the British Embassy seem to say we are a same - sex couple rather than Fiancee ( boy/girl ) although in UK there is now no difference in law. NOte:- while in Manila , Iam going to check out Brit Embassy cos they must be governed by UK Law and therefore cannot discriminate between sexes. Could be interesting !

The quote from the supreme court is pretty much interesting.Getting the passport is not difficult, but changing the sex from M to F is not possible in the Philippines. This entry is from Wikipedia:
If someone has had SRS and is physically and looking like a woman, still has to bear male identification on the documents. That is what they say, pretending that changing the docs would create "troubles" (in short)
I personally think that keeping the male identity on a female looking person generates more troubles...
A person is what it is at the given time.
As the identity change is usually ruled and arranged by a court, any possible link with the past (male) history from a judicial POV should,still be in the hands of the court who will know if the person had troubles with the law in the "previous (male) life", so the possible troubles (That I can see in that respect) should be a no issue.
My two cents.
