A nationality ruling threatens Dominicans of Haitian descent with exclusion

📅 23 September 2013 📍 Dominicaanse Republiek

The Constitutional Tribunal's ruling TC/0168/13 retroactively restricted access to Dominican nationality for descendants of certain migrants. It disproportionately affected people of Haitian descent, leaving many in legal uncertainty. Human-rights advocates challenged the decision as arbitrary deprivation of nationality, exposing citizenship administration as a mechanism of racialized exclusion.
