HAITI: HAITIAN MULTIPLE-CITIZENSHIP ISSUE
- CONDITIONS OF REINSTATEMENT FOR HAITIAN-BORNED CITIZENS
WHO REJECTED THEIR ALLEG1ANCE TO THE HAITIAN FLAG AND CONSTITUTION.

1. The issue of Haitian multiple-citizenship is a matter of national security for Haiti.

2. Haitian-born citizens who have previously rejected Haiti by swearing alleg1ance to foreign nations must make a specific petition directly to the Haitian Government who will study each case individually by opening proper investigation on each petitioner in Haiti and abroad.

3. Qualified petitioners must have resided in the country for at least one full calendar year prior to starting the procedure of the Petition for reinstatement of Haitian citizenship.

4. The petitioners must also register and fully comply with the requisites of designated Centers Of Rehabilitation for Haitian Citizenship Reinstatement before pre-qualification and Government consideration.

5. Upon pre-qualification, the Haitian Government may then transfer each case with results of the investigation for each case to a designated Haitian Immigration and Citizenship Judge for additional considerations.

6. Designated Haitian Immigration and Citizenship Judge may require additional mandates to the Court's discretion prior to pre-approval.

7. Petitioners who are pre-approved by the designated Haitian Judge must enter a probation period no less than three additional years and no more than four additional years.

8. After full compliance with probation time and mandate, the Court may signify its final approval for reinstatement of full Haitian citizenship according the Haitian Constitution and the applicable Haitian Law.
9. Petitioners must show proof of surrendering their passports to countries who adopted them.
10. This does not apply to Haitian-born citizens who may have been adopted by foreign countries or entities that did not oblige them to reject their faithfulness to the Haitian Flag or the Constitution.
