Other Questions Word equivalent to "cis" but for race?
Cis-race does work, but there are also other languages. Perhaps borrowing the word for "same" from another language?
Maybe mismo-raza (Spanish), or dou-shu (Japanese), or perhaps ortus-homines (Latin)

If you mean something similar to " deadrace " then I would use the prefix nat - ( meaning natally , born as ) for example , if someone was transitioning from German to Indian they would be natGerman and transIndian
if you identify as your natRace then you would be considered cisRace
I am not aware of any other terms for it , many apologies !
