Historical — Civil War 1946-49 ethnic-Macedonian deprivations

GR-HIS-03 es una cohorte HISTÓRICA cerrada que documenta la desnacionalización de los refugiados de la época de la Guerra Civil (1946-1949), centrándose en el subconjunto eslavo/étnico-macedonio (y de identificación búlgara) que fueron excluidos de las posteriores medidas de restauración parcial de Grecia. A partir del 5 de junio de 2026, no existe una ruta activa: ningún estatuto permite que un miembro de la cohorte excluida "presente su solicitud bajo GR-HIS-03" hoy. Está documentado para que esté completo y para mantenerlo diferenciado de los cohortes ex-Art 19 y de privación de la junta.

No live eligibility exists. Historically, the 1982/1985 restoration measures admitted only persons who were 'Greeks by genus' AND had fled abroad as political refugees because of the 1946-1949 Civil War. The ethnic-Macedonian cohort failed the 'Greeks by genus' condition and was therefore ineligible for both return (MD 106841/1982) and property restoration (L.1540/1985). No present-day criteria can restore this cohort because no statute provides for it (as of 2026-06-05).

No language/civics test attaches to this historical cohort directly. If a descendant pursues ordinary allogeneis naturalisation (GR-NAT-01), the ΠΕΓΠ written exam (Greek at a B1-analogous level plus Geography/History/Culture/Institutions) is mandatory from 1.4.2021; ομογενείς and certain descent claimants are exempt. The test requirement is a feature of the residual route, not of GR-HIS-03.

No application-document set exists because there is no live route. For any residual modern pathway (ordinary descent or naturalisation), the relevant documents are those of GR-DSC-01 (proof a Greek-national ancestor was Greek at the claimant's birth) or GR-NAT-01 (residence titles, clean record, ΠΕΓΠ exam). For the excluded cohort, descent proof commonly fails because the ancestor was denationalised under L-2/1947 and never restored.

Practical guidance for a descendant of this cohort as of 2026-06-05: (1) do NOT expect a 'Civil-War restoration' application — none exists; (2) first test ordinary descent (GR-DSC-01) via any family line that retained Greek nationality, since the restored ethnic-Greek branch (1982/1985) may carry a viable claim even if your line was excluded; (3) if no Greek-national ancestor can be shown, the realistic avenues are ordinary naturalisation (GR-NAT-01, 7-yr residence + ΠΕΓΠ exam) or, if genuinely stateless, the facilitated 3-year stateless track; (4) gather civil-registry and refugee-era documentation early, as ancestor-status proof is the binding constraint.

Not applicable to a closed cohort with no live route. For residual routes only: ordinary naturalisation runs on a 7-year continuous-residence prerequisite plus processing; declaratory descent recognition (διαπιστωτική πράξη) is reported at roughly 18 months. These timelines belong to GR-NAT-01 / GR-DSC-01, not to GR-HIS-03, which has no processing pipeline of its own.

No fee schedule attaches to a non-existent route. Any residual modern pathway carries that pathway's fees: ordinary allogeneis naturalisation €550 initial (e-paravolo 2159) / €200 resubmission / €100 reduced; declaratory descent recognition ~€100 admin + €140-240 consular. There is no 'Civil-War restoration' fee because there is no such application as of 2026-06-05.

No Greek-nationality court judgment is pinned specifically to the Civil-War ethnic-Macedonian cohort. The adjacent ex-Art 19 jurisprudence is instructive by analogy: ΣτΕ (Δ' Τμήμα) 29/2011 (decided 10-Jan-2011) rejected a repeal-based restoration claim as inadmissible, confirming that the 1998 repeal created no automatic restoration. European-institution scrutiny of the 'Greeks by genus' exclusion appears in the Council of Europe/PACE discrimination report rather than in a binding nationality judgment.

Historically the Greek State (Ministry-level) administered MD 106841/1982 and the property restitution under L.1540/1985. For any residual modern acquisition route, competence lies with the ordinary nationality authorities: the Regional Citizenship Directorate / Ministry of Interior for naturalisation, or the Regional Directorate / consulate for declaratory descent recognition. No authority today processes a GR-HIS-03 restoration because none exists in law (as of 2026-06-05).

Edge case — mixed-ethnicity families: where one parental line was 'Greek by genus' and obtained the 1982/1985 restoration while another was excluded, a modern descendant may still claim Greek nationality by ordinary descent (Art 1) through the restored line, even though the excluded line carries no remedy. Edge case — statelessness: a cohort member who is genuinely stateless may access the facilitated 3-year stateless naturalisation track (Greece is 1954-Convention party), but this is acquisition, not restoration of the lost nationality.
