In Vietnam today, the issue of transgender is gaining a lot of attention from society in large part because of movements, activities for the rights of homosexual, bisexual and transgender people. In particular, the fact that Vietnam’s Civil Law 2015 regulates transgender in Article 37 has created a need to build and complete the legal basis for this activity. Determining the approach when formulating the law on transgender is an important issue especially in the context of a right-based approach (right-based approach) is a mainstream trend in the world. This article tries to clarify the current situation of gender change in Vietnam and propose some recommendations and solutions to improve the law on transgender in Vietnam today.
