Summary

The State Department replaces "LGBTQI+ Travelers" headings in its country travel advisories with "LGB Travelers," deleting transgender-specific safety guidance — including warnings relevant to travelers whose documents may not match their presentation abroad. The change tracks EO 14168's terminology mandate. (See also section 12.)
