Neither European nor Italian asylum systems reflect yet the non-binary society we all live in. Thus, the first aim of this paper is to unveil the persistent flaws in both the Common European Asylum System (CEAS) and in the Italian asylum law of adequate provisions that succeed in addressing the vulnerability of trans asylum applicants, respecting their human rights, and providing them with a fair pathway for their protection and assistance in the EU and in the case of Italy, in turn obstructing the development of a steady integration system. Afterwards, this contribution aims at advancing concrete suggestions to fill this multilevel normative and policy gap.

Abstract
Neither European nor Italian asylum systems reflect yet the non-binary society we all live in. Thus, the first aim of this paper is to unveil the persistent flaws in both the Common European Asylum System (CEAS) and in the Italian asylum law of adequate provisions that succeed in addressing the vulnerability of trans asylum applicants, respecting their human rights, and providing them with a fair pathway for their protection and assistance in the EU and in the case of Italy, in turn obstructing the development of a steady integration system. Afterwards, this contribution aims at advancing concrete suggestions to fill this multilevel normative and policy gap.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
