Гражданство в стране Сент-Люсия
- Право на участие
- Сент-Люсия НЕ является СТОРОНОЙ (и не подписала) как Конвенции 1954 года о статусе апатридов, так и Конвенции 1961 года о сокращении безгражданства (запись 1966 года «Сент-Люсия» 1961 года представляет собой истекшее колониальное расширение Великобритании до обретения независимости, а не присоединение). Безгражданство не рассматривается во внутреннем законодательстве, и не существует процесса определения статуса. Единственным внутренним смягчением является дискреционная министерская регистрация НЕСОВЕРШЕННОЛЕТНЕГО в соответствии с Законом о гражданстве Сент-Люсии, гл. 1.04, раздел 7(2) — к которым может относиться брошенный младенец, родившийся на Сент-Люсии, или несовершеннолетний без гражданства. Отсутствие пути безгражданства среди взрослых; лица без гражданства остаются под общим иммиграционным контролем.

Saint Lucia is NOT a party to the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons or the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness (UNHCR RiMAP), and has no general statelessness-determination procedure. The only domestic mechanism touching statelessness is the Minister's discretionary power under the Citizenship of Saint Lucia Act, Cap. 1.04, s.7(2) to register a minor (including an abandoned or stateless child) as a citizen.
Кто имеет право
- Statelessness mitigation for minors: Saint Lucia's only domestic statelessness-mitigation mechanism is the discretionary ministerial registration of a stateless minor under Citizenship of Saint Lucia Act s.7(2)(b). It is discretionary, limited to minors, and exists despite Saint Lucia being a NON-PARTY to the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons and the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness. There is no general statelessness status-determination process under domestic law. - Statelessness — NON-PARTY and no status-determination process: Saint Lucia is a non-Party (and non-signatory) to both the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons and the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness; statelessness is unaddressed through domestic law and no status-determination process exists. The colonial-era 1966 'St. Lucia' entry under the 1961 Convention is a pre-independence UK territorial extension, not an independent-state accession. Stateless persons remain under general immigration controls and may obtain temporary ID at immigration-officer discretion without codified guarantees or appeal rights.

Правовая основа
Legal basis: Citizenship of Saint Lucia Act, Cap. 1.04, s.7(2) (ministerial registration of a minor). Caveat (as-of 2026): non-party status to the 1954/1961 Conventions means there is no automatic statutory safeguard against childhood statelessness beyond this discretion; an adult stateless person has no dedicated route.

Eligible via this route if conditions of Citizenship of Saint Lucia Act, Cap. 1.04, s.7(2)(b); UN Treaty Collection (NON-PARTY 1954/1961) are met.
Saint Lucia is a NON-PARTY (and non-signatory) to both the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons and the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness (the 1966 'St. Lucia' 1961 entry is a lapsed pre-independence UK colonial extension, not an accession). Statelessness is unaddressed through domestic law and no status-determination process exists. The only domestic mitigation is discretionary ministerial registration of a MINOR under Citizenship of Saint Lucia Act, Cap. 1.04, s.7(2) — which may include an abandoned infant born in Saint Lucia or a stateless minor. No adult statelessness route.
NOT eligible via this route: there is NO adult statelessness route; the only domestic mechanism is for minors (s.7(2)(b)), and Saint Lucia is a NON-PARTY to the 1954/1961 Conventions.
Saint Lucia is a NON-PARTY (and non-signatory) to both the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons and the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness. Statelessness is unaddressed through domestic law and no status-determination process exists; stateless persons remain under general immigration controls. The only domestic statelessness-mitigation mechanism is the discretionary ministerial registration of a stateless MINOR under s.7(2)(b) (/112). A stateless ADULT therefore has no dedicated route and would have to qualify under an ordinary route (e.g. residence-based naturalisation/registration) if otherwise eligible. As of continuously NON-PARTY since independence; confirmed 2026.
