Clarifying nationality. Documenting cases. Revealing structural problems.
This platform collects cases involving people in Germany whose nationality remains unresolved or who are affected by statelessness or statelessness-like situations.
The aim is to document individual cases in a structured way, identify recurring patterns, and improve understanding of legal and administrative obstacles.
What this platform is about
Many cases remain invisible because they are handled separately by different authorities, courts, or consular bodies. As a result, structural problems often remain unnoticed.
This platform aims to collect, organize, and make such cases more visible.
What kind of cases this platform addresses
Unresolved nationality
Cases in which it is unclear to which state a person legally belongs.
Statelessness
Cases in which no nationality is recognized or a person lives in practice without nationality documentation.
Conflicting identity documents
Cases involving different names, dates of birth, or documents issued by different countries.
Why submitting a case can matter
Many affected individuals believe their situation is unique. In reality, similar patterns often appear across different cases.
By documenting multiple cases, structural gaps, administrative barriers, and legal uncertainties become easier to identify.
Confidentiality
Submitted information and documents are treated confidentially. If cases are described publicly later, this will only be done in anonymized form and without identifying data.
