Resumen

GR-RST-03 (program_id 766, depósito GR-RST) es una ruta GASTADA/no activa. Registra la cohorte de personas desnacionalizadas en virtud del antiguo artículo 19, ahora derogado, del Decreto Legislativo (ΝΔ) 3370/1955 (el mecanismo de privación étnica 'alogeneis'/no étnico-griego) y la conclusión jurídica determinante de que la derogación de 1998 NO creó ningún mecanismo de restauración. A partir del 5 de junio de 2026, no existe ninguna solicitud que una persona pueda presentar para "restaurar" la nacionalidad perdida según el antiguo artículo 19; las únicas vías residuales son la ascendencia jus-sanguinis ordinaria a través de una línea griega no privada (GR-DSC) o, para los todavía apátridas, la naturalización apátrida reducida facilitada por tres años (GR-NAT-04: una nueva adquisición, no una restauración).

Escenarios de ejemplo

  • NO restoration available. The 1998 repeal of ex-Art 19 (Art 9§14 L.2623/1998) was prospective only; ΣτΕ 29/2011 confirms it does not auto-restore. Because the persona holds Turkish nationality (not stateless), the residual stateless track (GR-NAT-04) is unavailable. The only theoretical route is ordinary descent (GR-DSC) IF an UN-deprived Greek-national ancestor with surviving registration can be documented — unlikely here where the sole Greek line was the deprived father.

    Mirrors the ΣτΕ 29/2011 fact pattern (1967 deprivation, post-deprivation acquisition of Turkish nationality, restoration claim inadmissible). Restoration is not a route; the deprived paternal line cannot be revived, and re-acquisition of a foreign nationality plus non-statelessness forecloses the residual stateless pathway. (GR-EV-089, GR-EV-087, GR-EV-090)

  • No 'restoration' of the original status, BUT the persona is a strong candidate for the residual facilitated stateless naturalisation (GR-NAT-04): 3-year reduced residence track under Art 5(1)(δ), holding the 1954-Convention travel-document residence title (Art 5(1)(ε)), reduced παράβολο €100, subject to the full Art 5/5A conditions and ΠΕΓΠ exam unless exempt. This is a NEW acquisition, not a recovery.

    The cohort's only acquisition pathway is GR-NAT-04. Statelessness plus lawful residence plus the 1954-Convention title trigger the reduced 3-year track. The dedicated SDP being non-operational (NLR-11) means statelessness is established through ordinary channels, but the substantive facilitation exists. (GR-EV-090, GR-EV-039, GR-EV-135)

  • The grandmother's deprivation does NOT block an independent jus-sanguinis claim through the un-deprived paternal grandfather. The persona should pursue ordinary descent (GR-DSC-02), documenting the grandfather's surviving Δημοτολόγιο/Μητρώο Αρρένων registration and each generational link — NOT a GR-RST-03 'restoration' (which does not exist).

    Ex-Art 19 deprivation is individual and does not taint unrelated Greek-national ancestry; Art 1(1) jus sanguinis transmits indefinitely through any documented Greek-national line. This is the most common real-world resolution for descendants of the cohort. (GR-EV-017, GR-EV-070, GR-EV-089)

  • The two provisions are unrelated. The CURRENT Code Art 19 governs a minor who became Greek as a minor electing loss within a year of majority, with a statelessness safeguard (§3) — a live, voluntary, individual provision. The REPEALED ex-Art 19 of ND 3370/1955 was the ethnic-deprivation mechanism documented by GR-RST-03, dead since 1998 with no restoration. They must never be conflated.

    V-CORR 11 is the route's central disambiguation. Quoting the current Art 19 to address an ex-Art 19 cohort question (or vice versa) is the single most common error; the scenario fixes the framing. (GR-EV-083, GR-EV-087)

  • The promised 'Article 19 restoration petition' is NOT legitimate — no such application, form, fee, or competent authority exists. The 1998 repeal is prospective only (ΣτΕ 29/2011) and confers no automatic reinstatement. The persona should not pay for a non-existent route and should instead be assessed for ordinary descent (GR-DSC) through any un-deprived Greek line, or stateless naturalisation (GR-NAT-04) if applicable.

    Consumer-protection / anti-fraud one-stop-shop function: the no-route finding doubles as a warning against agents marketing a fabricated 'ex-Art 19 restoration'. Redirect to the genuine residual pathways. (GR-EV-089, GR-EV-138, GR-EV-090)
