Statelessness

UNHCR in North Macedonia is supporting the efforts of the national authorities to eradicate statelessness. Statelessness in the country comprises of two main categories, persons with undetermined nationality and persons lacking birth and civil registration. UNHCR, through its legal partner Macedonian Young Lawyers Association (MYLA), provides stateless persons with free legal assistance in the process of confirmation/acquisition of nationality.

If you are a stateless person in need of information on statelessness or legal advice, please contact UNHCR or our partner MYLA. Contact details can be found under Where to Seek Help.
