On 16 July 2026, Argentina’s official legislative database (Infoleg) recorded that Chamber V of the Federal Contentious-Administrative Court ordered a precautionary suspension (*suspensión cautelar*) of Decreto DNU 62/2025 until the action is decided. Infoleg records a precautionary suspension of the decree.
What the decree had done. DNU 62/2025 (6 February 2025) substituted article 11 of Law 26.743 so that persons under 18 could not access hormonal treatments or surgeries to modify the body to a self-perceived identity.
What Infoleg now states. The official observation on the decree record says the Sala V ruling of 16 July 2026 is in force, in incident No. 1, CAF No. 1065/25, *Federación Argentina de Lesbianas, Gays, Bisexuales y Trans y otros c/ PEN - DNU 62/25 s/ incidente de apelación*. A cautelar is an interim hold. No official court PDF was located for this post; the citation is Infoleg’s own annotation on the decree.
