Ecuador witnesses how after an arduous struggle for the defense of its fundamental rights, the LGBTIQ+ Community has gained its place and space, both nationally and internationally. As a result, the domestic legal system is adapted to it. Equality as a principle must be, at least formally, recognized to all people, therefore, transgender people are not an excluded case, but rather, it is part of the whole set of objects of protection, as a constitutional right and principle enjoyed by people without distinction of any category. The current Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador states that equality and non-discrimination shall be guaranteed within the Ecuadorian State. Based on this, the general objective is: To analyze the recognition that the transgender person has within the Ecuadorian legislation, maintaining the biopsychosocial welfare, for which a qualitative research approach is applied and methods such as analytical-synthetic and inductive are used, which allow observing in detail, the variables of study. All of which leads to argue how transgender people have the same rights and the same gua-rantees as the rest of the people, without distinction of any nature. © 2023, University of Cienfuegos, Carlos Rafael Rodriguez.
