לידת אזור התעלה 1904-1979 (תביעה כפולה jus soli)

תרחישים לדוגמה

התרחישים לדוגמה מוצגים באנגלית.

• Robert · nationality: born in the Canal Zone 1968, US-citizen father

  Dual claim: Panamanian AND US

  Canal Zone births are a DUAL-CLAIM — Panama's titular sovereignty made Zone births Panamanian by jus soli (Art 9(1)); US law (8 USC 1403) separately conferred US citizenship because a parent was a US citizen.

• Linda · nationality: born in the Canal Zone 1955, no US-citizen parent

  With no US-citizen parent, US citizenship did not attach; the Panamanian jus-soli claim (titular sovereignty) governs — she can seek present-day inscription in the Civil Registry.

• Zonian seeking cedula · nationality: born in the Zone 1972, no Panamanian papers

  Panamanian jus-soli claim available

  The Panamanian jus-soli claim (titular sovereignty) supports present-day inscription in the Civil Registry; the exact inscription article is a documented MED residual (Ley 31/2006).

• Outcome turns on the precise statutory condition; see TRC tiers.
