Open Debate on Articles 13, 14 and 15 of the Haitian
Constitution

Without a doubt various presidential candidates will
come campaigning in the U.S. and Canada. Are they
looking for some financial support? The people in the
Diaspora cannot vote even those who keep their Haitian
Citizenship. Circumstances of life force Haitian to
naturalize but they do not do it for distaste to the
motherland but to assist their families and the
country. The 1987 constitution is too harsh against
the Haitian Nationals.

Please voice your opinion

Article 13

Haitian nationality is lost by:

a) Naturalization in a foreign country;

b) Holding a political post in the service of a
foreign country;

c) Continuous residence abroad of a naturalized
Haitian without duly granted authorization by a
competent official. Anyone who loses his nationality
in this manner may not reacquire it.

ARTICLE 14:

A naturalized Haitian may recover his Haitian
nationality by meeting all of the conditions and
formalities imposed on aliens by the law.

ARTICLE 15:

Dual Haitian and foreign nationality is in no case
permitted.
