NEW HAMPSHIRE Admin Code: NH Code Admin R He-P7007.3(e) (2004)
New Hampshire will change both name and sex, and will issue a new birth certificate rather than amend the old one.
New Hampshire now requires a document of a court ordered legal sex change; just a surgeon’s letter is not enough. Change was made effective November 2001.
